To comply with this requirement, we are publishing this notice of a proposed data collection as described below. Comments are invited on: (a) Whether the proposed collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency, including whether the information shall have practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the VerDate Sep<11>2014 19:36 Jun 13, 2016 Jkt 238001 agency’s estimate of the burden of the proposed collection of information; (c) ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; (d) ways to minimize the burden of the collection of information on respondents, including through the use of automated collection techniques or other forms of information technology; and (e) estimates of capital or start-up costs and costs of operation, maintenance, and purchase of services to provide information. Burden means the total time, effort, or financial resources expended by persons to generate, maintain, retain, disclose or provide information to or for a Federal agency. This includes the time needed to review instructions; to develop, acquire, install and utilize technology and systems for the purpose of collecting, validating and verifying information, processing and maintaining information, and disclosing and providing information; to train personnel and to be able to respond to a collection of information, to search data sources, to complete and review the collection of information; and to transmit or otherwise disclose the information. Proposed Project CDC I-Catalyst Program—New—Office of the Associate Director for Science, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Background and Brief Description The CDC Office of Technology and Innovation (OTI) within Office of the Associate Director for Science (OADS) fosters innovative science and promotes the testing and implementation of innovative ideas that improve CDC’s ability to have public health impact. To arm CDC staff with an expanded skillset and tools to evaluate and translate their insights and ideas into solutions, CDC developed an experiential innovation curriculum called I-Catalyst. The program was created with the belief that innovation should be customer driven, be based on user research, and is something people at all levels of an organization can engage in. The goal of the I-Catalyst program is to help CDC employees test and explore their ideas through a discovery, ideation, and prototyping process. ICatalyst offers a process for defining problems and developing strategies to solutions that will help improve the quality and efficiency of innovation efforts and, as a result, overall performance. Through the I-Catalyst Program, teams work to define and articulate their problem space to find effective solutions. Participating teams PO 00000 Frm 00053 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 will go through a hypothesis-testing, scientific method of discovery to gather important insights and identify issues associated with their projects. Teams are forced ‘‘out of the classroom’’ to conduct interviews, study customer/ stakeholder needs, collect feedback, and find partnership opportunities. It is expected that participants will leave the program with the ability to evaluate and translate their insights into solutions. The I-Catalyst program provides CDC staff with real-world, hands-on entrepreneurship training. Through ICatalyst CDC staff make hypothesis about how the world works, and then test them by getting out of the building and talking to customers and/or stakeholders. Only conversations with potential customers/stakeholders can provide the facts from which hypotheses are proven or disproven about whether a solution (whether a product, process, etc.) creates value for the intended beneficiaries. Participants have to go out into the world and learn by doing. The process will engage customers/stakeholders in a process that will identify what they most value and need and what their top barriers and pain points are, and source solutions that will have high levels of efficacy and user acceptability. I-Catalyst combines in-class lectures with out-of-class learning and interactions with various customers/ stakeholders. This curriculum requires full participation from the entire team. The program guides teams and individuals through a series of workshops that helps participants articulate a problem, create evidencebased plan for assessment, and conduct unstructured interviews with customers/stakeholders. Ongoing technical assistance and support from a cadre of experts is provided to teams as they define the problem, map their operational model, and identify and interact with customers/stakeholders. Each team member must commit to indepth preparation, attendance at the lectures and workshops, and at least 15 additional hours per week for customer discovery. Teams will be spending a significant amount of time in between each of the lectures outside the class talking to customers. Each week teams will conduct a minimum of five customer interviews with individuals who represent different segments of customers/stakeholders whom they expect will gain value through their solution or will benefit from value streams that are being produced by their solution (in terms of social and/or environmental impact). The types of customers or stakeholders teams’ E:\FR\FM\14JNN1.SGM 14JNN1 38709 Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 114 / Tuesday, June 14, 2016 / Notices interview will be specific to the proposed solution and context. For example, teams may interview government employees if the solution is intended to improve how government employees do their work. On the other hand, teams may interview individuals who work industry and businesses if the teams determines that they are the intended beneficiaries. Using a generic information collection plan, this data collection covers qualitative information to be obtained through on-site, unstructured interviews with individuals who represent the customers or stakeholders CDC teams are attempting to serve or benefit. CDC anticipates conducting I-Catalyst with three cohorts of teams over the next two years. With each I-Catalyst cohort teams will interview their customers/ stakeholders for an average of 30 minutes. Each team will interview approximately 50 respondents. With 8– 10 teams participating in each of the three I-Catalyst training cohorts, approximately 1,500 respondents will be interviewed. Of these, approximately 40% of individuals will be internal CDC/ATSDR staff and 60% will be external partners, stakeholders, or customers. Data to be collected includes information regarding what they most value and need and their top barriers and pain points. CDC expects that teams participating in the I-Catalyst will be empowered to implement innovative strategies and solutions that create value for a set of beneficiaries. The ultimate goal of the ICatalyst program is to give CDC staff skills to successfully transfer knowledge into value-based solutions that benefit society and broaden the agency’s impact. Participation in the I-Catalyst interviews is completely voluntary. A three-year approval is requested. There is no cost to respondents other than their time.

The demonstrations involve waivers of certain provisions of the foster care program authorized by title IV–E of the Social Security Act. Child welfare agencies in waiver jurisdictions are operating demonstrations to implement a variety of programs and interventions that serve children and families in an effort to improve their safety, permanency, and well-being. Each waiver jurisdiction is required to conduct a third-party evaluation of its demonstration. The National Study will examine the extent to which safety, permanency, and well-being outcomes have improved for children and families; the characteristics of waiver jurisdictions where improvements in outcomes have occurred; expenditure patterns and the types of activities for which waiver jurisdictions have increased funding; and the extent to which waiver jurisdictions have experienced practice and systems-level changes. The National Study uses a mixed-method approach to examine 25 waiver jurisdictions (including 23 states, the District of PO 00000 Frm 00054 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 Columbia and one tribal government) with Terms and Conditions approved in Federal Fiscal years 2012, 2013, and 2014. Proposed data collection methods are two topically-focused telephone surveys: (a) A telephone survey of waiver jurisdiction representatives and evaluators who are focused on measuring well-being, and (b) a second telephone survey of waiver jurisdiction representatives and evaluators that is focused on understanding practice and systems-level changes within child welfare service systems. Also proposed is a Web-based survey of waiver jurisdiction representatives and evaluators that will look more broadly at the implementation of waiver demonstrations and corresponding changes in child welfare policy, practice, and financing. Data collected through these instruments will be used by the Children’s Bureau to gain an understanding of the jurisdictions’ collective experience with implementing their demonstrations. Respondents: The respondents to the Web-based survey will be a purposive sample of an estimated 250 waiver jurisdiction representatives and evaluators drawn from the 25 waiver jurisdictions with waiver demonstration E:\FR\FM\14JNN1.SGM 14JNN1

Proposed Project

    CDC I-Catalyst Program--New--Office of the Associate Director for 
Science, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    The CDC Office of Technology and Innovation (OTI) within Office of 
the Associate Director for Science (OADS) fosters innovative science 
and promotes the testing and implementation of innovative ideas that 
improve CDC's ability to have public health impact. To arm CDC staff 
with an expanded skill-set and tools to evaluate and translate their 
insights and ideas into solutions, CDC developed an experiential 
innovation curriculum called I-Catalyst. The program was created with 
the belief that innovation should be customer driven, be based on user 
research, and is something people at all levels of an organization can 
engage in.
    The goal of the I-Catalyst program is to help CDC employees test 
and explore their ideas through a discovery, ideation, and prototyping 
process. I-Catalyst offers a process for defining problems and 
developing strategies to solutions that will help improve the quality 
and efficiency of innovation efforts and, as a result, overall 
performance. Through the I-Catalyst Program, teams work to define and 
articulate their problem space to find effective solutions. 
Participating teams will go through a hypothesis-testing, scientific 
method of discovery to gather important insights and identify issues 
associated with their projects. Teams are forced ``out of the 
classroom'' to conduct interviews, study customer/stakeholder needs, 
collect feedback, and find partnership opportunities. It is expected 
that participants will leave the program with the ability to evaluate 
and translate their insights into solutions.
    The I-Catalyst program provides CDC staff with real-world, hands-on 
entrepreneurship training. Through I-Catalyst CDC staff make hypothesis 
about how the world works, and then test them by getting out of the 
building and talking to customers and/or stakeholders. Only 
conversations with potential customers/stakeholders can provide the 
facts from which hypotheses are proven or disproven about whether a 
solution (whether a product, process, etc.) creates value for the 
intended beneficiaries. Participants have to go out into the world and 
learn by doing. The process will engage customers/stakeholders in a 
process that will identify what they most value and need and what their 
top barriers and pain points are, and source solutions that will have 
high levels of efficacy and user acceptability.
    I-Catalyst combines in-class lectures with out-of-class learning 
and interactions with various customers/stakeholders. This curriculum 
requires full participation from the entire team. The program guides 
teams and individuals through a series of workshops that helps 
participants articulate a problem, create evidence-based plan for 
assessment, and conduct unstructured interviews with customers/
stakeholders. Ongoing technical assistance and support from a cadre of 
experts is provided to teams as they define the problem, map their 
operational model, and identify and interact with customers/
stakeholders. Each team member must commit to in-depth preparation, 
attendance at the lectures and workshops, and at least 15 additional 
hours per week for customer discovery.
    Teams will be spending a significant amount of time in between each 
of the lectures outside the class talking to customers. Each week teams 
will conduct a minimum of five customer interviews with individuals who 
represent different segments of customers/stakeholders whom they expect 
will gain value through their solution or will benefit from value 
streams that are being produced by their solution (in terms of social 
and/or environmental impact). The types of customers or stakeholders 
teams'

interview will be specific to the proposed solution and context. For 
example, teams may interview government employees if the solution is 
intended to improve how government employees do their work. On the 
other hand, teams may interview individuals who work industry and 
businesses if the teams determines that they are the intended 
beneficiaries.
    Using a generic information collection plan, this data collection 
covers qualitative information to be obtained through on-site, 
unstructured interviews with individuals who represent the customers or 
stakeholders CDC teams are attempting to serve or benefit. CDC 
anticipates conducting I-Catalyst with three cohorts of teams over the 
next two years. With each I-Catalyst cohort teams will interview their 
customers/stakeholders for an average of 30 minutes. Each team will 
interview approximately 50 respondents. With 8-10 teams participating 
in each of the three I-Catalyst training cohorts, approximately 1,500 
respondents will be interviewed. Of these, approximately 40% of 
individuals will be internal CDC/ATSDR staff and 60% will be external 
partners, stakeholders, or customers. Data to be collected includes 
information regarding what they most value and need and their top 
barriers and pain points.
    CDC expects that teams participating in the I-Catalyst will be 
empowered to implement innovative strategies and solutions that create 
value for a set of beneficiaries. The ultimate goal of the I-Catalyst 
program is to give CDC staff skills to successfully transfer knowledge 
into value-based solutions that benefit society and broaden the 
agency's impact.
    Participation in the I-Catalyst interviews is completely voluntary. 
A three-year approval is requested. There is no cost to respondents 
other than their time.
