Agency Forms Undergoing Paperwork
Reduction Act Review
In accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995, the Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)
has submitted the information
collection request titled ‘‘HIV
prevention among Latina transgender
women who have sex with men:
Evaluation of a locally developed
intervention’’ to the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for
review and approval. CDC previously
published a ‘‘Proposed Data Collection
Submitted for Public Comment and
Recommendations’’ notice on February
25, 2021 to obtain comments from the
public and affected agencies. CDC
received one comment related to the
previous notice. This notice serves to
allow an additional 30 days for public
and affected agency comments.
CDC will accept all comments for this
proposed information collection project.
The Office of Management and Budget
is particularly interested in comments
that:
(a) Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary

for the proper performance of the
functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility;
(b) Evaluate the accuracy of the
agencies estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
(c) Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected;
(d) Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including, through the
use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submission of
responses; and
(e) Assess information collection
costs.
To request additional information on
the proposed project or to obtain a copy
of the information collection plan and
instruments, call (404) 639–7570.

Proposed Project
HIV prevention among Latina
transgender women who have sex with
men: Evaluation of a locally developed
intervention (OMB Control No. 0920–
1266, Exp. 6/30/2021)—Revision—
National Center for HIV/AIDS, Viral
Hepatitis, STD and TB Prevention
(NCHHSTP), Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
The National Center for HIV/AIDS,
Viral Hepatitis, STD and TB Prevention
(NCHHSTP) is requesting approval for a
two-year extension of a currently
approved ICR (OMB Control No. 0920–
1266), titled ‘‘HIV prevention among
Latina transgender women who have
sex with men: Evaluation of a locally
developed intervention.’’ The goal of
this study is to evaluate the efficacy of
ChiCAS (Chicas Creando Acceso a la
Salud [Chicas: Girls Creating Access to
PO 00000
Frm 00092
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
33297
Health]), a locally developed and
culturally congruent two-session
Spanish-language small-group
combination intervention, designed to
promote consistent condom use, and
access to, and participation in, preexposure prophylaxis (PrEP) and
medically supervised hormone therapy
by HIV seronegative Hispanic/Latina
transgender women who have sex with
men.
The information collected through
this study will be used to evaluate
whether the ChiCAS intervention is an
effective HIV-prevention strategy by
assessing whether exposure to the
intervention results in improvements in
participants’ health and HIV prevention
behaviors. The study will compare pre(baseline) and post-intervention (sixmonth) levels of HIV risk among
participants who have received the
intervention and participants who have
not yet received the intervention
(delayed-intervention group).
This study will be carried out in
metropolitan areas in and around North
Carolina, including Ashville, NC;
Charlotte, NC; Research Triangle
(metropolitan area of Greensboro,
Winston-Salem and High Point NC);
Raleigh, NC; Wilmington, NC; and
Greenville, SC. The study population
will include 140 HIV-negative Spanishspeaking transgender women.
Participants will be adults, at least 18
years of age, self-identify as male-tofemale transgender or report having
been born male and identifying as
female, and report having sex with at
least one man in the past six months.
We anticipate participants will be
comprised mainly of racial/ethnic
minority participants under 35 years of
age, consistent with the epidemiology of
HIV infection among transgender
women.
Intervention participants will be
recruited to the study through a
combination of approaches, including
traditional print advertisement, referral,
in-person outreach, and through word of
mouth. A quantitative assessment will
be used to collect information for this
study, which will be delivered at the
time of study enrollment, and again at
a six-month follow up. The assessment
will be used to measure differences in
sexual risk knowledge, perceptions and
behaviors including condom use, PrEP
use, and use of medically supervised
hormone therapy. Intervention
mediators, including healthcare
provider trust and communication
skills, self-reported health status and
healthcare access, community
attachment and social support will also
be measured. All participants will
complete an assessment at baseline and
E:\FR\FM\24JNN1.SGM

33298
Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 119 / Thursday, June 24, 2021 / Notices
again at a six-month follow-up, after
enrolling in the study. The intervention
group will participate in ChiCAS after
completing the baseline assessment and
the delayed intervention group will
participate in ChiCAS after completing
the six-month follow up assessment.
CDC will also examine intervention
experiences through in-depth interviews
with 30 intervention group participants.
The interviews will capture
participants’ general experiences with
the ChiCAS intervention, as well as
their experiences and perceptions
specific to the main study outcomes:
PrEP knowledge, awareness, interest
and use; condom skills and use; and
hormone therapy knowledge,
awareness, interest and use.
It is expected that 50% of transgender
women screened will meet study
eligibility. We expect the initial
screening and contact information
gathering to take approximately four
minutes to complete. The baseline
assessment will take 60 minutes to
complete and will be administered to
140 participants. The follow up
assessment will take 45 minutes to
complete and will be administered to
140 participants one time. The
interview will take 90 minutes to
complete and will be administered to 30
participants from the intervention group
one time.
There are no costs to the respondents
other than their time. The total
estimated annualized burden hours are
155.
