funded health centers to support
implementation of evidence-based
recommendations for health centers and
providers to improve adolescent access
to reproductive health services. In
addition, awardees have worked with
approximately 30 youth-serving
organizations (YSO) to provide staff
training and develop systematic
approaches to identifying youth who are
at risk for a teen pregnancy and referring
those youth to reproductive health care
services. Finally, awardees have
developed communication campaigns
that increase awareness of the partner
health centers’ services for teens.
Activities are expected to result in
changes to health center and YSO
partners’ policies, to staff practices, and
to youth health care seeking and teen
pregnancy prevention behaviors.
The best practices to improve
adolescent access to reproductive health
services included in this program are
supported by evidence in the literature
and recommended by major medical
associations. Each of the components of
the current project has been
implemented as part of past teen
pregnancy prevention efforts. Consistent
with CDC’s mission of using evidence to
improve public health programs,
conducting an evaluation of combined
best practices, in concert with
community-clinical linkage of youth to
services to increase their access to
reproductive health care, can provide
further information to inform future
teen pregnancy prevention efforts.
CDC has been collecting the
information needed to assess these
efforts under ‘‘Performance Monitoring
of ‘Working with Publicly Funded
Health Centers to Reduce Teen
Pregnancy among Youth from
Vulnerable Populations’ ’’ (OMB No.
0920–1156, Exp. 1/31/2020). CDC is
using the information to determine the
types of training and technical
assistance that may be needed, to
monitor whether awardees meet
objectives related to health center and
YSO partners’ policies and staff
practices, to support a data-driven
quality improvement process for
adolescent sexual and reproductive
health care services and referrals, and to
assess whether the project model was
effective in increasing the utilization of
services by youth.
A revision of the currently approved
information collection is being
requested in order to continue data
collection until the end of the project.
Remaining information collection
activities will include awardees, health
center partner organizations, and
providers at the health center partners;
information collection during the
extension period will not include YSOs
or youths being served by health
centers, as significant changes are not
expected to be found for YSOs in the
final year and that the youth survey will
not need to be conducted beyond late
2019. Participation in the organizational
assessment activities is required for
awardees and partner organizations.
Participation in a survey of health
center providers is voluntary. The total
estimated burden hours for the
extension period are 485 hours.

The Administration for
Children and Families (ACF), Office of
Planning, Research, and Evaluation is
requesting public comment on new data
collection activities to gather
information about how Maternal, Infant,
and Early Childhood Home Visiting
(MIECHV) local implementing agencies
(LIAs) recruit families for program
participation and work with their
community referral partners to recruit
families. The project is designed to
examine challenges programs
experience reaching caseload capacity
and how challenges might be overcome.

Comments due within 60 days of
publication. In compliance with the
requirements of Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of
the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995,
the Administration for Children and
Families is soliciting public comment
on the specific aspects of the
information collection described above.
ADDRESSES: Copies of the proposed
collection of information can be
obtained and comments may be
forwarded by emailing
OPREinfocollection@acf.hhs.gov.
Alternatively, copies can also be
obtained by writing to the
Administration for Children and
Families, Office of Planning, Research,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Description: The ACF Office of
Planning, Research, and Evaluation is
proposing a new information collection
to learn more about how MIECHVfunded LIAs recruit families for home
visiting services. Data collection will
take place in two phases: (1) Eligibility
assessment and preliminary data
collection and (2) primary data
collection. The first phase, for MIECHVfunded LIAs, includes completion of an
eligibility assessment form, providing
information about community referral
partners, and submitting program
outreach and recruitment materials. The
second phase includes participation, for
LIAs and identified community referral
partners, in a 75-minute semi-structured
interview. For a subset of LIAs, it also
includes submitting management
information system (MIS) data. This
descriptive work will capture how LIAs
and their community referral partners
identify families, refer families to home
visiting services, and enroll and serve
families. The activities and products
from this project will help ACF and the
Health Resources and Services
Administration to identify actionable
bottlenecks in the recruitment and
enrollment process to allow for the
development and testing of strategies to
improve the delivery of MIECHVfunded services.
Respondents: MIECHV-funded LIA
administrators, program managers, and
frontline staff; LIAs participating in the
Home Visiting Applied Research
Collaborative’s (HARC) Practice-Based
Research Network; and LIA community
referral partners.
