ZERO TO THREE National Center for Infant, Toddler and Families, Inc ..... Justification: The Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2023, included additional funds that are being used to support ITCs. HRSA understands guidance provided in House Report 117–403 to support the award of additional funds for the NRC to provide implementation support and subject matter expertise to ITC teams and to advance national-level reach and impact of the program, including via subaward funds to local ITC teams who previously received financial support and technical assistance under HRSA–18–123, which was in place in 2022. Both of these objectives will be accomplished through a supplement to the NRC. The planned supplemental award to the ITCP NRC aligns with the most recent funding opportunity (HRSA–22– 074) and program purpose outlined in the NOFO, which is ‘‘to continue and VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:57 Aug 21, 2023 Jkt 259001 City, State expand research-based infant-toddler court teams to change child welfare practices and improve the early developmental health and well-being of infants, toddlers, and their families,’’ with primary goals to (1) build the capacity of state/territorial/tribal and local teams to implement the ITC approach and lead aligned communitydriven efforts to prevent and respond to child maltreatment; and (2) advance the evidence and national reach, impact, and sustainability of the ITC approach. Additional expectations of the NRC in HRSA–22–074 include that it will ‘‘lead and coordinate improvements nationwide to policy and practice in child welfare and early childhood systems’’ and ‘‘provide a range of tailored supports to states and local sites that implement the ITC approach’’ that ‘‘build upon previously-funded ITCP PO 00000 Frm 00043 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 DC Award amount $2.56 million (estimated). efforts’’ (e.g., funding awards under HRSA–18–123). Additionally, under the NOFO, the NRC advances the objective of increasing the spread, scale, and coordination of local ITC sites across States, Territories, jurisdictions, and Tribal nations. HRSA will award approximately $1.91 million to the current ITCP NRC recipient. This funding will enhance resource development, provision of subject matter expertise, the building of capacity to implement the ITC approach, further develop national-level partnerships, and provide subawards to local court teams that were previously funded under HRSA–18–123 (but not under HRSA–22–074/073), which will advance the national reach, impact, and sustainability of ITC teams.

ACTION: Notice. AGENCY: HRSA is publishing this notice of petitions received under the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (the Program), as required by the Public Health Service (PHS) Act, as amended. While the Secretary of HHS is named as the respondent in all proceedings brought by the filing of petitions for compensation under the Program, the United States Court of Federal Claims is charged by statute with responsibility for considering and acting upon the petitions. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For information about requirements for filing petitions, and the Program in general, contact Lisa L. Reyes, Clerk of Court, United States Court of Federal Claims, 717 Madison Place NW, Washington, DC 20005, (202) 357–6400. For information on HRSA’s role in the Program, contact the Director, National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program, 5600 Fishers Lane, Room 08N146B, Rockville, Maryland 20857; (301) 443– 6593, or visit our website at: https:// www.hrsa.gov/vaccinecompensation/ index.html. SUMMARY: The Program provides a system of no-fault compensation for certain individuals who have been injured by specified childhood vaccines. Subtitle 2 of Title XXI of the PHS Act, 42 U.S.C. 300aa-10 et seq., provides that those seeking compensation are to file a petition with the United States Court of Federal Claims and to serve a copy of the petition to the Secretary of HHS, who is named as the respondent in each proceeding. The Secretary has delegated this responsibility under the Program to lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with NOTICES1 SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:57 Aug 21, 2023 Jkt 259001 HRSA. The Court is directed by statute to appoint special masters who take evidence, conduct hearings as appropriate, and make initial decisions as to eligibility for, and amount of, compensation. A petition may be filed with respect to injuries, disabilities, illnesses, conditions, and deaths resulting from vaccines described in the Vaccine Injury Table (the Table) set forth at 42 CFR 100.3. This Table lists for each covered childhood vaccine the conditions that may lead to compensation and, for each condition, the time period for occurrence of the first symptom or manifestation of onset or of significant aggravation after vaccine administration. Compensation may also be awarded for conditions not listed in the Table and for conditions that are manifested outside the time periods specified in the Table, but only if the petitioner shows that the condition was caused by one of the listed vaccines. Section 2112(b)(2) of the PHS Act, 42 U.S.C. 300aa–12(b)(2), requires that ‘‘[w]ithin 30 days after the Secretary receives service of any petition filed under section 2111 the Secretary shall publish notice of such petition in the Federal Register.’’ Set forth below is a list of petitions received by HRSA on July 1, 2023, through July 31, 2023. This list provides the name of the petitioner, city, and state of vaccination (if unknown then the city and state of the person or attorney filing the claim), and case number. In cases where the Court has redacted the name of a petitioner and/or the case number, the list reflects such redaction. Section 2112(b)(2) also provides that the special master ‘‘shall afford all interested persons an opportunity to submit relevant, written information’’ relating to the following: 1. The existence of evidence ‘‘that there is not a preponderance of the evidence that the illness, disability, injury, condition, or death described in the petition is due to factors unrelated to the administration of the vaccine described in the petition,’’ and 2. Any allegation in a petition that the petitioner either: a. ‘‘[S]ustained, or had significantly aggravated, any illness, disability, injury, or condition not set forth in the Vaccine Injury Table but which was caused by’’ one of the vaccines referred to in the Table, or b. ‘‘[S]ustained, or had significantly aggravated, any illness, disability, injury, or condition set forth in the Vaccine Injury Table the first symptom or manifestation of the onset or significant aggravation of which did not occur within the time period set forth in PO 00000 Frm 00044 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 57121 the Table but which was caused by a vaccine’’ referred to in the Table. In accordance with section 2112(b)(2), all interested persons may submit written information relevant to the issues described above in the case of the petitions listed below. Any person choosing to do so should file an original and three (3) copies of the information with the Clerk of the United States Court of Federal Claims at the address listed above (under the heading ‘‘FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT’’), with a copy to HRSA addressed to Director, Division of Injury Compensation Programs, Health Systems Bureau, 5600 Fishers Lane, 08N146B, Rockville, Maryland 20857. The Court’s caption (Petitioner’s Name v. Secretary of HHS) and the docket number assigned to the petition should be used as the caption for the written submission.

    Justification: The Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2023, included 
additional funds that are being used to support ITCs. HRSA understands 
guidance provided in House Report 117-403 to support the award of 
additional funds for the NRC to provide implementation support and

objectives will be accomplished through a supplement to the NRC.
    The planned supplemental award to the ITCP NRC aligns with the most 
recent funding opportunity (HRSA-22-074) and program purpose outlined 
in the NOFO, which is ``to continue and expand research-based infant-
toddler court teams to change child welfare practices and improve the 
early developmental health and well-being of infants, toddlers, and 
their families,'' with primary goals to (1) build the capacity of

18-123). Additionally, under the NOFO, the NRC advances the objective 
of increasing the spread, scale, and coordination of local ITC sites
