Proposed Project
Promoting Adolescent Health through
School-Based HIV Prevention—New—
National Center for HIV/AIDS, Viral
Hepatitis, STD, and TB Prevention
(NCHHSTP), Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
Many young people engage in sexual
behaviors that place them at risk for HIV
infection, other sexually transmitted
diseases (STD), and pregnancy.
According to the 2017 Youth Risk
Behavior Survey (YRBS), 39.5% of high
school students in the United States had
ever had sexual intercourse and 28.7%
were currently sexually active. Among
currently sexually active students,
46.2% did not use a condom, and 13.8%
did not use any method to prevent
pregnancy the last time they had sexual
intercourse. While the proportion of
high school students who are sexually
active has steadily declined, half of the
20 million new STDs reported each year
are among young people between the
ages of 15 and 24. Young people aged

13–24 account for 21% of all new HIV
diagnoses in the United States, with
most occurring among 20–24 year olds.
Establishing healthy behaviors during
childhood and adolescence is easier and
more effective than trying to change
unhealthy behaviors during adulthood.
One venue that offers valuable
opportunities for improving adolescent
health is at school. Schools have direct
contact with over 50 million students
for at least six hours a day over 13 key
years of their social, physical, and
intellectual development. In addition,
schools often have staff with knowledge
of critical health risk and protective
behaviors and have pre-existing
infrastructure that can support a varied
set of healthful interventions. This
makes schools well-positioned to help
reduce adolescents’ risk for HIV
infection and other STD through sexual
health education (SHE), access to sexual
health services (SHS), and safe and
supportive environments (SSE).
Since 1987, the Division of
Adolescent and School Health (DASH)
in the National Center for HIV/AIDS,
Viral Hepatitis, STD, and TB Prevention
of the Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC), has worked to
support for HIV prevention efforts in the
nation’s schools. CDC requests OMB
approval to collect data over a threeyear period from funded agencies under
award PS18–1807: Promoting
Adolescent Health through SchoolBased HIV Prevention. Funded agencies
are local education agencies (LEAs), also
known as school districts. The
fundamental purposes of PS18–1807 are
to build and strengthen the capacity of
LEAs and their priority schools to
effectively contribute to the reduction of
HIV infection and other STD among
adolescents; the reduction of disparities
in HIV infection and other STD
experienced by specific adolescent subpopulation. Priority schools are middle
and high schools within the funded
LEAs in which youth are at risk for HIV
infection and other STDs. This funding
supports a multi-component, multilevel
effort to support youth reaching
E:\FR\FM\11SEN1.SGM
11SEN1
Federal Register / Vol. 84, No. 176 / Wednesday, September 11, 2019 / Notices
adulthood in the healthiest possible
way.
CDC will use a web-based system to
collect data on the approaches that
LEAs are using to meet their goals.
Approaches include helping LEAs and
priority schools deliver sexual health
education emphasizing HIV and other
STD prevention; increasing adolescent
access to key sexual health services; and
establishing safe and supportive
environments for students and staff. To
track LEA progress and evaluate the
effectiveness of program activities, CDC
will be collecting data using a mix of
process and outcome measures. Process
measures to be completed by all LEAs
will assess the extent to which planned
program activities have been
implemented and lead to feasible and
sustainable programmatic outcomes.
Process measures include items on
school health policy and practice
assessment and training and technical
assistance received from nongovernmental partner organizations.
Outcome measures, which will be
completed by local education agencies,
assess whether funded activities at each
site are leading to intended outcomes
including public health impact of
systemic change in schools. These
measures drove the development of
questionnaires that have been tailored to
each of the LEAs’ strategies (i.e., SHE,
SHS, SSE).
Respondents are 25 LEAs that have
been funded under PS18–1807. Local
education agencies will complete the
questionnaires semi-annually using the
Program Evaluation and Reporting
System (PERS), an electronic web-based
interface specifically designed for this
data collection. Each LEA will receive a
unique log-in to the system and
technical assistance to ensure they can
use the system easily. The dates when
data are requested reflect the Office of
Financial Resources (OFR) deadlines to
provide timely feedback to LEAs and
CDC staff for accountability and optimal
use of funds. CDC anticipates that semi-
47957
annual information collection will begin
in February 2020 and will describe
activities conducted during the period
August 2019–July 2022. The estimated
burden per response is approximately
2–26 hours. This estimate includes time
for local education agencies to gather
information at the district and schoollevels. Annualizing this collection over
three years results in an estimated
annualized burden of 1,750 hours per
year and 5,250 for three years across all
funded local education agencies.
LEAs are required to allocate at least
6% of their NOFO award on evaluation
ranging from $15,000 to $21,000.
Grantees may use these discretionary
funds for collection of process and
outcome measures, including time to
gather and enter data into the online
and evaluation reporting system. There
is no cost to the respondents other than
their time. The total annual burden
hours are 1,750.
