Understanding Resource Utilization to Support Male Sailor Operational Readiness (MOSAIC)

Key Information

Abstract

As part of the DoD-wide effort to promote resource utilization for those who experienced Unwanted Sexual Contact (USC; i.e., sexual assault and sexual harassment), the Department of Navy (DoN) Office of Force Resiliency (OFR) developed and recently updated the Prevention Plan of Action (aka Prevention Plan of Action 2.0, 2022-2024; PPoA 2.0). The PPoA 2.0 is a strategy framework leveraging public health science in military environments to prevent sexual assault in the military and improve response efforts. As part of this initiative, OFR commissioned this study (Agreement #NMR-24-11717) to investigate the factors influencing reporting and resource utilization among men who experienced USC during military service. This DoN OFR-commissioned investigation involves three study phases, and findings from each phase will be pieced together to provide a comprehensive understanding of resource utilization decision-making processes among men affected by USC and will inform the development of programmatic recommendations to improve resource utilization. Phase 1) A systematic literature review (no human subjects involvement), Phase 2) An archival data analysis of deidentified data with no human subjects involvement, and Phase 3) A narrative/semi-structured interview study of male Sailors who report experiencing USC and/or sexual harassment during military service to build upon limited research among men. Finally, findings will be used to develop recommendations to modify extant policy and practices around sexual assault reporting and service utilization by male Sailors (no human subjects involvement). This information collection request describes our data collection efforts for Phase 3, a primary interview data collection with men who have experienced USC and/or sexual harassment during military service.

Crash Report Sampling System (CRSS)

Key Information

Abstract

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) is seeking approval from OMB of this information collection request (ICR) for an extension with modification of its currently approved information collection for the Crash Report Sampling System (CRSS) information collection and related special studies. NHTSA is seeking approval to modify the collection to include the collection of the portion of NHTSA’s Non-Traffic Surveillance (NTS) data that is submitted through the CRSS data collection effort and add two special studies. NHTSA is authorized by 49 U.S.C. 30182 and 23 U.S.C. 403 to collect data on motor vehicle traffic crashes to aid in the identification of issues and the development, implementation, and evaluation of motor vehicle and highway safety countermeasures to support efforts to reduce injuries and fatalities caused by motor vehicle crashes. CRSS is a voluntary collection of data from police-reported crashes involving all types of motor vehicles, pedestrians, and cyclists; this includes property damage only crashes as well as those resulting in injuries and fatalities. The Non-Traffic Surveillance (NTS) is a virtual data collection effort for collecting information about non-traffic crashes and non-crash incidents. The NTS data provide counts and details regarding fatalities and injuries that occur in non-traffic crashes and in non-crash incidents. Additionally, two special studies are included: the non-Sample count study and the PJ frame evaluation which will assess the quality of the CRSS sampling frame and assist with determining the weights and measure of size for the CRSS Police Jurisdictions (PJs). This is a modification to the previously approved as OMB Control No. 2127-0714 (current expiration Date: 12/31/2022). This ICR increases burden by 7,000 hours (from 35,680 hours to 42,680 hours). The cost burden remains the same at $0.

Educational Opportunity Centers Program (EOC) Annual Performance Report

Key Information

Abstract

The Department of Education (ED) collects Annual Performance Reports (APRs) from Educational Opportunity Centers (EOC) grantees under the authority of Title IV, Part A, Subpart 2, Division 1, Sections 402A and 402B of the Higher Education Act of 1965, as amended, the program regulations in 34 CFR 644, and the Education Department General Administrative Regulations (EDGAR), in 34 CFR 74.51, 75.720, and 75.732. The information that grantees submit in their APRs allows ED to annually assess each grantee's progress in meeting their project's approved goals and objectives. The APR data that grantees submit are compared with the projects' approved objectives to determine the projects' accomplishments, to make decisions regarding whether funding should be continued, and to award "prior experience" points. The regulations for this program provide for awarding up to 15 points for prior experience (34 CR 644.22). During a competition for new grant awards, the prior experience points are added to the average of the peer reviewers' scores to arrive at a total score for each application. Funding recommendations and decisions are primarily based on the rank order of applications on the slate; therefore, assessment of prior experience points, based on data in the annual performance report, is a crucial part of the overall application process. Further, this performance report form is the main source of data for the Department's response to the requirements of the Government Performance and Results Act (GPRA) for this program. In addition, the Department uses the annual performance reports to produce program level data for annual reporting, budget submissions to OMB, Congressional hearings and inquiries, and responding to inquiries from higher education interest groups and the general public. EOC APRs are prepared and submitted by EOC grant projects. For each EOC grant project, the grant project director of record completes, or supervises the completion of the data submission process. The grant project director supervises the administration of an EOC grant. An EOC grant provides counseling and information on college admissions to qualified adults who want to enter or continue a program of postsecondary education. The program also provides services to improve the financial and economic literacy of participants. An important objective of the program is to counsel participants on financial aid options, including basic financial planning skills, and to assist in the application process. The goal of the EOC program is to increase the number of adult participants who enroll in postsecondary education institutions. The proposed revision to the APR entails replacement of Competitive Preference Priority (CPP) questions with new CPP questions of equal response time. In addition, the annual number of responses and total annual burden hours have been adjusted to reflect an increase in the size of the reporting universe.

Veterans Upward Bound (VUB) Program Annual Performance Report

Key Information

Abstract

All Veterans Upward Bound projects must provide instruction in mathematics through pre-calculus, laboratory science, foreign language, composition, and literature. Projects may also provide short-term remedial or refresher courses for veterans who are high school graduates but have delayed pursuing postsecondary education. Projects are also expected to assist veterans in securing support services from other locally available resources such as the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, veterans- associations, and other state and local agencies that serve veterans. The Department-s annual performance report (APR) for VUB collects each current grantee-s data at the participant level on services and performance over the course of a year. The Department uses the information conveyed in the performance report to assess a grantee-s progress in meeting its approved goals and objectives and to evaluate a grantee-s prior experience in accordance with the program regulations in 34 CFR 645.32. Grantees- annual performance reports also provide information on the outcomes of projects- work and of the VUB program as a whole. In addition, APR data allows the Department to respond to the reporting requirements of the Government Performance and Results Act. The APR has been updated to include questions related to the Competitive Preference Priorities used in the most recent competition. These questions are not expected to affect the total burden hours per response.

Assessing the Use of Coaching to Promote Positive Caregiver-Child Interactions in Early Childhood Home Visiting Through Rapid Cycle Learning

Key Information

Abstract

This information collection is part of the Assessing and Describing Practice Transitions Among Evidence-Based Home Visiting Programs in Response to the COVID-19 Public Health Emergency Study, which aims to identify and study practices implemented in response to the COVID-19 public health emergency that support evidence-based practice and have the potential to enhance home visiting programming. One of the practices the study identified is the use of coaching to promote caregiver-child interactions and positive caregiving skills. Coaching involves a home visitor providing instructions to the parent or caregiver as they carry out the skill and differs from a common home visiting strategy, modeling, in which home visitors first demonstrate a skill themselves before asking the parent or caregiver to try it. The purpose of this information collection is to better understand, through rapid cycle learning, how MIECHV-funded home visiting programs can implement coaching strategies during home visits.

Community Services Block Grant (CSBG) Annual Report

Key Information

Abstract

The Community Services Block Grant (CSBG) Act (42 U.S.C. § 9901, et seq.) was established under the Community Opportunities, Accountability, and Training and Educational Services Act of 1998, Public Law 105-285. The Office of Community Services (OCS), Administration for Children and Families (ACF), U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) administers CSBG at the federal level. CSBG provides funds to states and other entities to support services and activities that alleviate the causes and conditions of poverty in communities. Section 678E of the CSBG Act requires states, including the District of Columbia and the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, and U.S. territories, to annually prepare and submit a report on the measured performance of the state and the eligible entities in the state. Prior to the participation of the state in the performance measurement system, the state shall include in the report any information collected by the state relating to such performance. Each state shall also include in the report an accounting of the expenditure of funds received by the state through the CSBG program, including an accounting of funds spent on administrative costs by the state and the eligible entities, and funds spent by the eligible entities on the direct delivery of local services, and shall include information on the number of and characteristics of clients served under the subtitle in the state, based on data collected from the eligible entities.
