Agency Forms Undergoing Paperwork
Reduction Act Review
In accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995, the Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)
has submitted the information
collection request titled Effective
Communication in Public Health
Emergencies—Developing CommunityCentered Tools for People with Special
Health Care Needs to the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for
review and approval. CDC previously
published a ‘‘Proposed Data Collection
Submitted for Public Comment and
Recommendations’’ notice on
September 20, 2017 to obtain comments
from the public and affected agencies.
CDC received two comments related to
the previous notice. This notice serves
to allow an additional 30 days for public
and affected agency comments.
CDC will accept all comments for this
proposed information collection project.
The Office of Management and Budget
is particularly interested in comments
that:
(a) Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the agency, including

methodology and assumptions used;

require targeted messages before,
during, and after disasters to ensure that
they fully appreciate the risks to their
health and safety and can take measures
to avoid harm. Significant research has
highlighted the unique information
needs for at-risk populations in general,
as well as more specific populations
such as minority communities, limitedEnglish proficiency communities, and
persons with physical or
communication disabilities. However,
there has been minimal translation of
this research into practical tools for
sharing information, nor has the
research been extended to the families
of children and youth with special
heath care needs.
Research has also shown that families
and individuals are more likely to
prepare for emergencies or follow
health-related emergency directives
when the information comes from a
health care professional, particularly
someone engaged in their care. There is
very little information about the
capacity of these trusted sources to
reach at-risk individuals during
disasters, or their coordination into
government risk communication efforts.
Finally, although social media is used
by at-risk populations on a daily basis,
relatively little is known about how
these populations use social media
during disasters, as the majority of the
studies analyzing channels used by atrisk populations were completed before
the widespread use of social media in
disasters.
This study will utilize a multi-tiered,
mixed methods approach to data
collection to study the communication
needs of two target populations during
disasters: Families with children and
youth with special health care needs
(CYHCN); and individuals with Autism
Spectrum Disorders (ASD), as well as
families with children who have Autism
Spectrum Disorders.

Data collection will consist of
surveys, as well as focus groups and
interviews. For each population, we will
collect data from (1) families (i.e.,
parents/caregivers of children and
adolescents, as well as adolescents
themselves) with special health care
needs and ASD; and (2) the medical,
social service and other providers who
serve them. In addition, we will collect
data from emergency response agency
representatives and experts in health
information and communications
technology to ask cross-cutting
questions regarding the use of
technology to communicate during
disasters, and the perspectives and
needs of individuals and agencies
charged with leading disaster response
efforts.
There are no costs to respondents
other than their time. The estimated
annualized burden is 419 hours.

Effective Communication in Public Health Emergencies--Developing
