SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Description: SYSIL builds evidence on how to decrease the risk of homelessness among youth and young adults with experience in the child welfare system by continuing work with an organization who conducted foundational work as part of the Youth At-Risk of Homelessness project (OMB Control Number: 0970–0445). SYSIL will provide important information to the field by designing and conducting a federally led evaluation of a comprehensive service model for youth at risk of homelessness. The SYSIL evaluation includes an implementation study and an impact study, which will use a rigorous quasiexperimental design that includes a comparison group. This information collection request includes the baseline and follow-up survey instruments for the impact study (a single instrument administered three times), and discussion guides for interviews and focus groups for the implementation study. The data collected from the baseline and follow-up surveys will be used to describe the characteristics of the study sample of youth, develop models for estimating program impacts, and determine program effectiveness by comparing outcomes between youth in the treatment (youth receiving the Pathways program) and control groups. The study also collects updated contact information from youth at two points in time to assist in reaching youth to complete follow-up surveys. Data from the interviews and focus groups will provide a detailed understanding of program implementation. We are also conducting brief check-ins with program directors using a subset of questions from the interview guides to collect information on services provided at two additional points in time. The study also uses administrative data from the child welfare system, homelessness management information system, and program providers. Administrative data is being used in its existing format and does not impose any new information collection or recordkeeping requirements on respondents. The purpose of the requested extension is to continue the ongoing data collection, which will provide ADDRESSES: E:\FR\FM\03JYN1.SGM 03JYN1 55274 Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 128 / Wednesday, July 3, 2024 / Notices information on focal youth outcomes and program implementation. We are also requesting revisions to the interview and focus group protocols, as well as an additional round of interviews and focus groups. The purpose of the proposed revision is to better understand their experiences in delivering and receiving services and gather information on topics not previously covered in the protocols. Respondents: The baseline and follow-up surveys and contact update requests are administered to youth in the treatment group (youth receiving the Pathways program) and youth in the control group who consent to participate in the study.

Additional information is at ICCPUD Study on Alcohol Intake and Health (StopAlcoholAbuse.gov). SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Authority and Purpose: The Interagency Coordinating Committee on the Prevention of Underage Drinking (ICCPUD) was created in 2004 when Congress directed the Secretary of HHS to establish the ICCPUD to coordinate all federal agency activities related to the problem of underage drinking. In April 2022, to support the Dietary Guidelines for Americans process and be responsive to stakeholder interest in the subject, the Alcohol Intake and Health Study (Study) was devised and approved by ICCPUD principles. The Study is designed to assess the scientific evidence on the relationship between chronic alcohol use and multiple health conditions, the relationship between alcohol use and injury risk, lifetime risks of alcohol-attributable mortality and morbidity, and the burden of disease related to alcohol intake in the United States. This information will be provided to HHS and USDA for consideration during the development of the 2025–2030 Dietary Guidelines for Americans. E:\FR\FM\03JYN1.SGM 03JYN1

Successful in Life (SYSIL) study (OMB #: 0970-0574; expiration date: 
07/31/2024).

DATES: Comments due within 30 days of publication. OMB must make a 
decision about the collection of information between 30 and 60 days 
after publication of this document in the Federal Register. Therefore, 
a comment is best assured of having its full effect if OMB receives it 
within 30 days of publication.

ADDRESSES: Written comments and recommendations for the proposed 
information collection should be sent within 30 days of publication of 
this notice to www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain. Find this particular 
information collection by selecting ``Currently under 30-day Review--
Open for Public Comments'' or by using the search function.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Description: SYSIL builds evidence on how to decrease the risk of 
homelessness among youth and young adults with experience in the child 
welfare system by continuing work with an organization who conducted 
foundational work as part of the Youth At-Risk of Homelessness project 
(OMB Control Number: 0970-0445). SYSIL will provide important 
information to the field by designing and conducting a federally led 
evaluation of a comprehensive service model for youth at risk of 
homelessness.
    The SYSIL evaluation includes an implementation study and an impact 
study, which will use a rigorous quasi-experimental design that 
includes a comparison group. This information collection request 
includes the baseline and follow-up survey instruments for the impact 
study (a single instrument administered three times), and discussion 
guides for interviews and focus groups for the implementation study. 
The data collected from the baseline and follow-up surveys will be used 
to describe the characteristics of the study sample of youth, develop 
models for estimating program impacts, and determine program 
effectiveness by comparing outcomes between youth in the treatment 
(youth receiving the Pathways program) and control groups. The study 
also collects updated contact information from youth at two points in 
time to assist in reaching youth to complete follow-up surveys. Data 
from the interviews and focus groups will provide a detailed 
understanding of program implementation. We are also conducting brief 
check-ins with program directors using a subset of questions from the 
interview guides to collect information on services provided at two 
additional points in time. The study also uses administrative data from 
the child welfare system, homelessness management information system, 
and program providers. Administrative data is being used in its 
existing format and does not impose any new information collection or 
recordkeeping requirements on respondents.
    The purpose of the requested extension is to continue the ongoing 
data collection, which will provide

[[Page 55274]]

information on focal youth outcomes and program implementation. We are 
also requesting revisions to the interview and focus group protocols, 
as well as an additional round of interviews and focus groups. The 
purpose of the proposed revision is to better understand their 
experiences in delivering and receiving services and gather information 
on topics not previously covered in the protocols.
    Respondents: The baseline and follow-up surveys and contact update 
requests are administered to youth in the treatment group (youth 
receiving the Pathways program) and youth in the control group who 
consent to participate in the study. Interviews are conducted with 
program leadership and staff. Focus groups are conducted with a subset 
of youth who are participating in the study. Check-ins are conducted 
with program directors.
