SUMMARY: PO 00000 Frm 00046 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 13047 Title of the Collection: State-Level Paid Family Leave Policy Project. Type of Collection: New. OMB No.: 0990–XXXX or 0990–NEWOffice within OS—Specific program collecting the data (is applicable). Abstract: The Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) Office on Women’s Health (OWH) ‘‘provides national leadership and coordination to improve the health of women and girls through policy, education, and innovative programs.’’ Through the State-Level Paid Family Leave Policy Project, OWH will explore the relationship between women’s health and state-level paid family leave (PFL) programs, which provide partial wage replacement to eligible employees to bond with a new child. The project aims to increase awareness of women’s health effects in relation to state-level PFL programs among key stakeholders, including advocates, state and federal policymakers, and state program administrators. This information will be used to inform the national conversation about these programs. The State-Level Paid Family Leave Policy Project involves the collection of information on new mothers’ health, health behaviors, and ability to fulfill their roles in the workplace, family and community. Data will be collected through 16 one-time focus groups in the four states with fully functioning statelevel PFL programs (California, New Jersey, Rhode Island, and New York) with both women who used and women who did not use the program. A questionnaire will be administered prior to the focus groups to collect information on participants’ demographic characteristics and other external factors that may affect health. Data collection and analysis will take approximately one year. Interested individuals will be screened for eligibility. Participants must be mothers with a child under the age of one and be eligible for their state’s respective PFL program. To participate as a state-level PFL user, mothers must have used the entire statelevel PFL benefit. To participate as a state-level PFL non-user, mothers must have a baby older than the ‘‘state-level PFL threshold’’ and have not taken any state-level PFL. We define the threshold as the time after which mothers are typically out of the temporary disability insurance (TDI) and state-level PFL window (approximately 12 weeks).
