Request for Nominations of
Candidates To Serve on the Advisory
Committee on Breast Cancer in Young
Women (ACBCYW)
The CDC is soliciting nominations for
membership on the ACBCYW. The
Committee provides advice and
guidance to the Secretary, HHS; the
Assistant Secretary for Health; and the
Director, CDC, regarding the formative
research, development, implementation
and evaluation of evidence-based
activities designed to prevent breast
cancer (particularly among those at
heightened risk) and promote the early
detection and support of young women
who develop the disease. The advice
provided by the Committee will assist in
ensuring scientific quality, timeliness,
utility, and dissemination of credible
appropriate messages and resource
materials.
Nominations are being sought for
individuals who have expertise and
qualifications necessary to contribute to
the accomplishments of the committee’s
objectives. The Secretary, HHS, acting
through the Director, CDC, shall appoint
to the advisory committee nominees
with expertise in breast cancer, disease
prevention, early detection, diagnosis,
public health, social marketing, genetic
screening and counseling, treatment,
rehabilitation, palliative care, and
survivorship in young women, or in
related disciplines with a specific focus
on young women. Members may be
invited to serve for up to four years. The
next cycle of selection of candidates
will begin in the Fall of 2016, for
selection of potential nominees to
replace members whose terms will end
on November 30, 2017.
Selection of members is based on
candidates’ qualifications to contribute
to the accomplishment of ACBCYW
objectives (https://www.cdc.gov/maso/
facm/facmacbcyw.html).
The U.S. Department of Health and
Human Services policy stipulates that
Committee membership be balanced in
terms of points of view represented, and
the committee’s function. Appointments
shall be made without discrimination
on the basis of age, race, ethnicity,
gender, sexual orientation, gender
identity, HIV status, disability, and
cultural, religious, or socioeconomic
status. Nominees must be U.S. citizens,
and cannot be full-time employees of
the U.S. Government. Current
participation on federal workgroups or

prior experience serving on a federal
advisory committee does not disqualify
a candidate; however, HHS policy is to
avoid excessive individual service on
advisory committees and multiple
committee memberships. Committee
members are Special Government
Employees, requiring the filing of
financial disclosure reports at the
beginning and annually during their
terms. CDC reviews potential candidates
for ACBCYW membership each year,
and provides a slate of nominees for
consideration to the Secretary of HHS
for final selection.
Candidates should submit the
following items. The deadline for
receipt of materials for the 2017 term is
October 7, 2016:
• Current curriculum vitae or resume,
including complete contact information
(name, affiliation, mailing address,
telephone numbers, fax number, email
address);
• A 150 word biography for the
nominee;
• At least one letter of
recommendation from a person(s) not
employed by the U.S. Department of
Health and Human Services. Candidates
may submit letter(s) from current HHS
employees if they wish, but at least one
letter must be submitted by a person not
employed by HHS.

Background and Brief Description
CDC’s mission is to protect America
from health, safety, and security threats,
both foreign and in the U.S. To ensure
a competent, sustainable, and
empowered public health workforce
prepared to meet these challenges, CDC
plays a key role in developing,
implementing, and managing a number
of fellowship programs. A fellowship is
defined as a training or work experience
lasting at least 1 month and consisting
of primarily experiential (i.e., on-thejob) learning, in which the trainee has
a designated mentor or supervisor. CDC
fellowships are intended to develop
public health professionals, enhance the
public health workforce, and strengthen
collaborations with partners in public
health and healthcare organizations,
academia, and other stakeholders in
governmental and non-governmental
organizations. Assessing fellowship
activities is essential to ensure that the
public health workforce is equipped to
promote and protect the public’s health.
CDC requests a 3-year approval of a
generic clearance to collect data about
its fellowship programs, as they relate to
public health workforce development.
Data collections will allow for ongoing,
collaborative, and actionable
communications between CDC
fellowship programs and stakeholders
(e.g., fellows, supervisors/mentors,
alumni). These collections might
include short surveys, interviews, and
focus groups. Intended use of the
resulting information is to
• inform planning, implementation,
and continuous quality improvement of
fellowship activities and services;
• improve efficiencies in the delivery
of fellowship activities and services;
and
• determine to what extent fellowship
activities and services are achieving
established goals.
Collection and use of information
about CDC fellowship activities will
help ensure effective, efficient, and
satisfying experiences among fellowship
program participants and stakeholders.
CDC estimates that annually, a given
fellowship program will conduct one
query each with one of the three
respondent groups: Fellowship
applicants or fellows; mentors,
supervisors, or employers; and alumni.
The total annualized burden hours of
2,957 was determined as depicted in the
following table. There are no costs to
Respondents other than their time.

Background and Brief Description
The Centers for Disease Control and

programs working on tickborne diseases
(TBDs) is requesting a three year
approval for a generic clearance to

residents and businesses offering pest

endemic areas of the United States. The
data collection for which approval is
sought will allow DVBD to use survey
results to inform implementation of
future TBD prevention interventions. A
‘‘Generic’’ clearance will provide the
flexibility to conduct multiple surveys
on the same topic (TBDs), but regarding
different prevention methods,
objectives, or target audiences.
TBDs are a substantial and growing
public health problem in the United
States. From 2009–2014, over 200,000
