supports the National Network, working
to (1) facilitate the sharing of promising
practices and data for broadening
participation in STEM, (2) contribute to
the knowledge base on broadening
participation in STEM through research,
and (3) establish a framework for
communications and networking among
partners, as well as across the National
Network. The NSF INCLUDES National
Network is composed of over 1200
members that represent:
• NSF INCLUDES-funded projects,
• Other broadening participation
projects and research efforts, including
projects funded by other NSF programs
(e.g., Louis Stokes Alliances for
Minority Participation, Engineering
Research Centers, Alliances for
Graduate Education and the
Professoriate, ADVANCE:
Organizational Change for Gender
Equity in STEM Academic Professions,
Broadening Participation in Computing,
Improving Undergraduate STEM
Education),
• Federal Coordination in STEM (FC–
STEM) agencies, and
• Organizations that support the
development of talent from all sectors of
society to build an inclusive STEM
workforce.
NSF is requesting OMB approval for
the NSF INCLUDES Coordination Hub
to collect information from members of
the NSF INCLUDES National Network.
The NSF INCLUDES Coordination Hub
seeks to collect data from Network
members to: (1) Inform Hub activities
(e.g., to identify support needs in the
coming year; to inform shared measures
work and network support and
expansion goals); (2) assess
development of the NSF INCLUDES
National Network; and (3) track progress
against the Hub’s theory of action for
building collaborative infrastructure at
the Network level. This information will
be shared with Network members.
Information collected will include
respondents’ names, their affiliated
organizations, email addresses, and
home states. This personally identifiable
information (PII) is collected primarily
to categorize responses based on
respondents’ roles in the NSF
INCLUDES National Network. PII will
be accessed only by the Coordination
Hub. Any public reporting of data will
be in aggregate form, and any personal
identifiers will be removed.
Use of the Information: The
information collected is primarily for
the use of the NSF INCLUDES
Coordination Hub to understand the
utility of the network in supporting
their project success, and for informing
design decisions the Coordination Hub
will make regarding future programming

and support provided to network
members.
Estimate burden on the public:
Estimated at 450 hours, per year, for the
duration of the Coordination Hub’s
cooperative agreement with NSF. It is
beneficial for NSF and the Coordination
Hub to have access to this information
annually in order to track progress
toward the NSF INCLUDES goals of
supporting stakeholders in identifying
shared goals and objectives and
supporting partnerships and networks
that help to foster the spread and
adaptation of proven effective practices.
Respondents: All members of the NSF
INCLUDES National Network will be
invited to respond to the survey. The
NSF INCLUDES National Network is
comprised of individuals who are
interested in or working directly to
broaden participation in STEM. Some of
these individuals are NSF INCLUDES
grantees; others who have received NSF
awards, or pursue broadening
participation in STEM with support
from other sources, including grants
from federal, state, philanthropic, or
business entities. Some are themselves
representatives of these various types of
funders or businesses, such as program
officers at NSF, other Federal agencies,
and private foundations.
Estimated number of respondents:
900 (representing a 75% response rate).
Average Time per Reporting: The
online survey is comprised primarily of
closed-ended questions and is designed
to be completed by respondents in
under 30 minutes.
Frequency: Once per year for the
duration of the Coordination Hub’s
cooperative agreement with NSF
Comments: Comments are invited on:
(a) Whether the proposed collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
Agency, including whether the
information shall have practical utility;
(b) the accuracy of the Agency’s
estimate of the burden of the proposed
collection of information; (c) ways to
enhance the quality, utility, and clarity
of the information on respondents,
including through the use of automated
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology; and (d) ways to
minimize the burden of the collection of
information on respondents, including
through the use of automated collection
techniques or other forms of information
technology.
Please submit one copy of your
comments by only one method. All
submissions received must include the
agency name and collection name
identified above for this information
collection. Commenters are strongly
