Proposed Project National Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP) Introductory Session Project— New—National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Background and Brief Description The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC’s) National Diabetes Prevention Program lifestyle change program (National DPP LCP) focused on helping participants adopt healthier behaviors (e.g., improving diet, increasing physical activity, reducing stress) to prevent or delay the development of type 2 diabetes. This proposed project’s primary purposes are to (1) increase knowledge of recruitment strategies, specifically introductory sessions, used by CDC-recognized organizations to increase enrollment in the National DPP LCP (Phase 1), and (2) evaluate the effectiveness of introductory sessions, specifically a CDC-developed behaviorally-informed introductory session known as the Be Your Best (BYB) Discovery Session, on enrollment compared with other types of introductory sessions that organizations currently use (Phase 2). CDC is requesting OMB approval to collect information needed for this evaluation. For Phase 1 of this project, the Introductory Session Landscape Assessment, CDC is seeking approval to disseminate a brief Landscape Assessment (survey) to all National DPP CDC-recognized organizations (approximately 1,700) and their affiliate class locations (up to 540). The survey will initially be disseminated electronically (web-based survey), and then a hard copy will be mailed to nonrespondents. The overall evaluation objectives of the Introductory Session Landscape Assessment are to increase knowledge of recruitment strategies (specifically introductory sessions) used by CDC-recognized organizations to increase enrollment in LCPs; understand how CDC-recognized organizations are using introductory sessions, including session content and delivery; and inform the subsequent Phase 2 Introductory Session Evaluation that will evaluate the BYB Discovery Session compared with other types of introductory sessions. For the Phase 2 Introductory Session Evaluation, CDC is seeking approval to disseminate the following data collection tools: (1) Pre-Session Survey (to be completed by up to 2,640 introductory session attendees), (2) PostSession Survey (to be completed by up to 2,640 introductory session attendees), (3) Registration and Attendance Tracking Form (to be completed by up to 132 LCP staff), and (4) Discovery Session Implementation Fidelity Checklist (to be completed by up to 66 LCP staff). The Pre-Session and PostSession Surveys will be distributed as hard copies to introductory session attendees. The BYB Discovery Session Implementation Fidelity Checklist and the Registration and Attendance Tracking Form will be designed in Microsoft Excel and distributed to participating LCP staff using secure FTP upload for LCP personnel to complete electronically. Information collected will be analyzed to evaluate the effectiveness of the BYB Discovery Session intervention in increasing enrollment in the National DPP LCP compared with already occurring introductory sessions (i.e., standard care), with a secondary aim of better understanding how it is implemented and the context of its implementation. This data collection important because if the BYB Discovery Session is determined to be an effective recruitment strategy compared with other existing introductory sessions, it should be promoted to maximize the National DPP’s potential to reduce type 2 diabetes incidence. jbell on DSKJLSW7X2PROD with NOTICES ESTIMATED ANNUALIZED BURDEN HOURS Number of respondents Type of respondents Form name LCP Staff .........................................................

Proposed Project

    National Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP) Introductory Session 
Project--New--National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health 
Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's (CDC's) National 
Diabetes Prevention Program lifestyle change program (National DPP LCP) 
focused on helping participants adopt healthier behaviors (e.g., 
improving diet, increasing physical activity, reducing stress) to 
prevent or delay the development of type 2 diabetes. This proposed 
project's primary purposes are to (1) increase knowledge of recruitment 
strategies, specifically introductory sessions, used by CDC-recognized 
organizations to increase enrollment in the National DPP LCP (Phase 1), 
and (2) evaluate the effectiveness of introductory sessions, 
specifically a CDC-developed behaviorally-informed introductory session 
known as the Be Your Best (BYB) Discovery Session, on enrollment 
compared with other types of introductory sessions that organizations 
currently use (Phase 2).
    CDC is requesting OMB approval to collect information needed for 
this evaluation. For Phase 1 of this project, the Introductory Session 
Landscape Assessment, CDC is seeking approval to disseminate a brief 
Landscape Assessment (survey) to all National DPP CDC-recognized 
organizations (approximately 1,700) and their affiliate class locations 
(up to 540). The survey will initially be disseminated electronically 
(web-based survey), and then a hard copy will be mailed to non-
respondents. The overall evaluation objectives of the Introductory 
Session Landscape Assessment are to increase knowledge of recruitment 
strategies (specifically introductory sessions) used by CDC-recognized 
organizations to increase enrollment in LCPs; understand how CDC-
recognized organizations are using introductory sessions, including 
session content and delivery; and inform the subsequent Phase 2 
Introductory Session Evaluation that will evaluate the BYB Discovery 
Session compared with other types of introductory sessions.
    For the Phase 2 Introductory Session Evaluation, CDC is seeking 
approval to disseminate the following data collection tools: (1) Pre-
Session Survey (to be completed by up to 2,640 introductory session 
attendees), (2) Post-Session Survey (to be completed by up to 2,640 
introductory session attendees), (3) Registration and Attendance 
Tracking Form (to be completed by up to 132 LCP staff), and (4) 
Discovery Session Implementation Fidelity Checklist (to be completed by 
up to 66 LCP staff). The Pre-Session and Post-Session Surveys will be 
distributed as hard copies to introductory session attendees. The BYB 
Discovery Session Implementation Fidelity Checklist and the 
Registration and Attendance Tracking Form will be designed in Microsoft 
Excel and distributed to participating LCP staff using secure FTP 
upload for LCP personnel to complete electronically.
    Information collected will be analyzed to evaluate the 
effectiveness of the BYB Discovery Session intervention in increasing 
enrollment in the National DPP LCP compared with already occurring 
introductory sessions (i.e., standard care), with a secondary aim of 
better understanding how it is implemented and the context of its 
implementation. This data collection important because if the BYB 
Discovery Session is determined to be an effective recruitment strategy 
compared with other existing introductory sessions, it should be 
promoted to maximize the National DPP's potential to reduce type 2 
diabetes incidence.
