differences between young breast cancer
survivors based on the length of time
that has elapsed from cancer diagnosis?
(3) Do the experiences and barriers
faced by women diagnosed between 18
and 39 years of age (Samples 1 and 2)
differ from those of women diagnosed
between 40 and 44 years of age and 45
and 49 years of age (Sample 2)? This
comparison will also help CDC explore
whether drawing a convenience sample
from survivorship groups will be a
methodologically legitimate, less
expensive method to recruit
respondents for future breast cancer
survivor surveys.
The target number of responses for the
overall study will result in up to 3,750
completed surveys. Respondents will be
asked to complete a questionnaire,
which is estimated to take about 22
minutes. Sample 1 respondents will
have the option of completing a
hardcopy questionnaire or an online
questionnaire. Sample 2 respondents
will complete the questionnaire online.
Demographic information will be
collected from all patients who
participate in the study.
Findings from this study will be used
to identify interventions to ameliorate or
eliminate existing barriers to treatment
so that young women have access to
high quality breast cancer treatment and
care. Study findings will be
disseminated through reports,
presentations, and publications. Results
will also be used by participating sites,
CDC, and other federal agencies to
improve care and services provided to
young women diagnosed with breast
cancer.
OMB approval is requested for three
years and the burden table presents
annuitized estimates. CDC’s data
collection contractor will securely
maintain identifiable information from
respondents recruited from state
registries (Sample 1). No identifiable
information will be collected by CDC.
Participation is voluntary and there are
no costs to respondents other than their
time.

technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submission of
responses; and (e) Assess information
collection costs.

Proposed Project
Capacity Building Assistance
Program: Assessment and Quality
Control—New—National Center for
HIV/AIDS, Viral Hepatitis, STD, and TB
Prevention (NCHHSTP), Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
The CDC is requesting the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) to grant
a three-year approval to collect data that
comprises Health Professional
Application for Training (HPAT), the
Training Follow-up Instrument, the
Technical Assistance (TA) Satisfaction
Instrument, and the Capacity Building
Assistance (CBA) Key Informant
Interview. The purpose of this
information collection is to assess the
degree to which the CDC’s CBA program
meets the needs of its consumers in
order to enhance its capacity building
strategy over time. The HPAT serves as
the official application form for training
and technical activities conducted by
the Sexually Transmitted Disease (STD)/
Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)
Prevention Training Centers’ (PTCs)
grantees and the HIV Capacity Building
Assistance (CBA providers) grantees
funded by the (CDC). The HPAT form is
currently approved under OMB Control
Number 0920–0995 and expires on
October 31, 2016.

Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 160 / Wednesday, August 19, 2015 / Notices
The Prevention Training Centers
(PTCs) and CBA providers are funded
by CDC/Division of STD Prevention
(DSTDP) and Division of HIV/AIDS
Prevention (DHAP) over the five-year
period to provide capacity-building
services that includes information,
training, and technical assistance. CBA
services are requested and provided to
support health departments,
community-based organizations, and
healthcare organizations in the
implementation, monitoring and
evaluation of evidence-based HIV
prevention interventions and programs;
building organizational infrastructure;
and community mobilization to
decrease stigma and increase HIV
testing in high risk communities. Under
this project, there will be no duplication
of information collection, because it
builds on existing, OMB approved data
collection activities.
The PTCs and CBA providers offer
classroom and experiential training,
web-based training, clinical
consultation, and capacity building
assistance to maintain and enhance the
capacity of healthcare professionals to
control and prevent STDs and HIV.
The CBA service recipients are
healthcare professionals such as,
physicians, nurses, and health
educators, etc., who work at
community-based organizations (CBOs),
health departments, and healthcare
organizations, most of whom are funded
directly or indirectly by the CDC,
involved in HIV prevention service
delivery.
CDC is requesting to use two webbased assessments that will be
administered to recipients of CBA
services: (1) Training Follow-Up
Instrument and (2) Technical Assistance
(TA) Satisfaction Instrument. The first
quantitative assessment will be
disseminated 90 days after a training
event to agency staff who participated in
a training activity. It takes
approximately 15 minutes to complete.
The purpose of this web-based
assessment is to determine the training
participants’ satisfaction with the
trainers, training materials, and the
course pace, benefits from the training,
and CBA needs, how relevant the
training was to their work, and whether
they were able to utilize the information
gained from the training. The second
quantitative assessment will be
disseminated 45 days after a technical
assistance event to agency staff who
participated in a technical assistance
and will take about 15 minutes. The
second assessment will measure
participants’ satisfaction with the
technical assistance they received,
intended or actual use of enhanced
capacity, barriers and facilitators to use,
and benefits of the technical assistance.
The purpose of the contractor
administered CBA Key Informant
Interview is to collect qualitative
information to assess the impact of CBA
services on organizational capacity (e.g.,
application of knowledge and skills,
potential organization changes as a
result of CBA services) and to solicit
information about how the CBA
program can be improved. These
interviews will be conducted via
telephone for up to 15 minutes with a
subset of up to 40 recipients of CBA
services.
The respondents represent an average
of the number of health professionals
who receive training and technical
assistance from the CBA and PTC
grantees. The data collection is
necessary (a) to assess CBA consumers’
(community-based organizations, health
departments, and healthcare
organizations) satisfaction with and
short-term outcomes from the overall
CBA program as well as specific
elements of the CBA program; (b) to
improve CBA services and enhance the
Capacity Building Branch’s national
capacity building strategy over time; (c)
to assess the performance of the grantees
in delivering training and technical
assistance and to standardize the
registration processes across the two
CBA programs (i.e., the PTC program
and the CBA program) and multiple
grantees funded by each program.
There are no costs to respondents
other than their time. The estimated
annualized burden hours are 8,643
hours.
