ACTION:
Request for public comment.
The Health Profession
Opportunity Grants (HPOG) Program
provides healthcare occupational
training for Temporary Assistance for
Needy Families recipients and other
low-income people. The Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) has
approved various data collection
activities for the National and Tribal
Evaluation of the 2nd Generation of
HPOG (HPOG 2.0 National and Tribal
Evaluation) under OMB #0970–0462.
Due to the profound effects the COVID–
19 pandemic has had on the U.S.
economy, on families nationwide and
on HPOG 2.0 programs, the Office of
Planning, Research, and Evaluation
(OPRE) is considering surveying study
participants who applied to the HPOG
Program after the onset of the pandemic.
This notice provides a summary for
public review and comment of the use
and burden associated with a new
information collection for this ‘‘COVID
Cohort’’ Survey.
DATES: 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.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Description: The COVID–19 pandemic
has had profound effects on the U.S.
economy, on the healthcare sector and
on individuals and families across the
country. The pandemic has also had
broad implications for HPOG 2.0
programs—on how and how much
healthcare training is delivered, on
demand for healthcare workers, on
interest in working in health care, and
on the labor market more broadly. OPRE
seeks to understand the particular
experiences of those who apply for the
HPOG Program during this period by
surveying study participants enrolled
after the onset of the pandemic. The
COVID Cohort Survey would collect
important information on participant
experiences 15 months after
randomization and would allow the
impact study to compare impacts for
pre-COVID participants with impacts for
those enrolled after the onset the
pandemic.
Respondents: HPOG impact study
participants from the 27 non-tribal
HPOG 2.0 grantees (treatment and
control group members who enroll
between May 2020 and September
2021).
