Proposed Project
National Youth Tobacco Surveys
(NYTS) 2015–2017—Revision—National
Center for Chronic Disease Prevention
and Health Promotion (NCCDPHP),
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
The Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC) has periodically
collected information about tobacco use
among adolescents since 2004 (National
Youth Tobacco Survey (NYTS) 2004,
2006, 2009, 2011, 2012, 2013, and 2014;
OMB no. 0920–0621, exp. 1/31/2015).
At present, the NYTS is the most
comprehensive source of nationally
representative tobacco data among
students in grades 9–12, and the only
source of such data for students in
grades 6–8. The NYTS has provided
national estimates of tobacco use
behaviors, information about exposure
to pro- and anti-tobacco influences, and
information about racial and ethnic
disparities in tobacco-related topics.
Information collected through the NYTS
PO 00000
Frm 00034
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
is used to identify trends over time, to
inform the development of tobacco
cessation programs for youth, and to
evaluate the effectiveness of existing
interventions and programs.
CDC is requesting OMB approval to
conduct additional cycles of the NYTS
in the spring of 2015, 2016, and 2017.
The survey will be conducted among
nationally representative samples of
students attending public and private
schools in grades 6–12, and will be
administered to students as an optically
scannable booklet of multiple-choice
questions. Information supporting the
NYTS also will be collected from
state-, district-, and school-level
administrators and teachers. During the
2015–2017 timeframe, a number of
changes will be incorporated that reflect
CDC’s ongoing collaboration with FDA
and the need to measure progress
toward meeting strategic goals
established by the Family Smoking
Prevention and Tobacco Control Act.
The 2015 survey will examine the
following topics: Use of cigarettes,
smokeless tobacco, cigars, pipes, bidis,
snus, hookahs, electronic vapor
products, and dissolvable tobacco
products; knowledge and attitudes;
media and advertising; access to tobacco
products; secondhand smoke exposure;
and cessation. Information collection
will occur annually.
Results of the NYTS will continue to
be used for public health program
planning and evaluation. Information
collected through the NYTS is also
expected to provide multiple measures
and data for monitoring progress on
multiple tobacco-related objectives for
Healthy People 2020.
OMB approval is requested for three
years. Participation is voluntary and the
total estimated annualized burden hours
are 15,504. There are no costs to
respondents other than their time.

Proposed Project
WISEWOMAN National Program
Evaluation—New—National Center for
Chronic Disease Prevention and Health
Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
The CDC has supported the
WISEWOMAN program (Well-Integrated
Screening and Evaluation for Women
Across the Nation) since 1995. The
WISEWOMAN program is designed to
serve low-income women ages 40–64
who have elevated risk factors for
cardiovascular disease (CVD) and have
no health insurance, or are
underinsured for medical and
preventive care services. Through the
WISEWOMAN program, women have
access to screening services for selected
CVD risk factors such as elevated blood
cholesterol, hypertension, and abnormal
blood glucose levels; referrals to
lifestyle programs; and referrals to
medical care. WISEWOMAN
participants must be co-enrolled in the
CDC-sponsored National Breast and
Cervical Cancer Early Detection Program
(NBCCEDP).
The WISEWOMAN program is
administered through cooperative
agreements with state, territorial, or
tribal health departments. At present,
approximately two-thirds of program
funding is provided by CDC with the
other one-third supplied by the state,
territory, or tribal organization. Each
WISEWOMAN awardee submits to CDC

an annual progress report that describes
program objectives and activities, and
semi-annual data reports (known as
minimum data elements, or MDE) on
the screening, assessment, and lifestyle
program services offered to women who
participate in the program (see
WISEWOMAN Reporting System, OMB
No. 0920–0612, exp. 12/31/2016).
Participant-level MDE are de-identified
prior to transmission to CDC.
In 2013, CDC released the fourth
funding opportunity announcement
(FOA) for the WISEWOMAN program
(DP13–1302), which resulted in fouryear cooperative agreements with 22
state, territorial, and tribal health
departments, including 5 new and 17
continuing awardees from the previous
FOA. Key program elements were
retained (e.g., provision of screening
services, promotion of healthy lifestyle
behaviors, and linkage to community
resources), but a number of changes
were incorporated into the program at
that time due to shifts in populations,
systems, and community needs. The
current FOA reflects increased emphasis
on improving access to clinical systems
of care and increased emphasis on
leveraging existing resources in the
community. Lifestyle interventions have
also been reframed to include lifestyle
programs and health coaching sessions,
and MDE have been updated to capture
information about risk reduction
counseling and participants’ readiness
to change. The current cooperative
agreement also stresses monitoring and
performance evaluation as key program
dimensions. Additionally, more
information is needed to augment that
from previous evaluation efforts.
CDC seeks to conduct a one-time,
multi-component evaluation to assess
the effectiveness of the program on
individual-, organizational-, and
community-level outcomes. The indepth assessment is designed to
complement the routine progress and
MDE information already being
collected from WISEWOMAN program
awardees. The new data collection will
focus on obtaining qualitative and
