Approved consistent with the understanding that there are inherent limitations in the design of the evaluations for drawing quantitative conclusions about the effectiveness of different types of programs. It is understood that this study will be used as part of a larger literature about the effectiveness of such interventions. CDC will continue to collaborate with NIH and other federal partners on studies with similar outcomes of interest.

CDC plans to conduct a study to collect key outcomes required by the ACA in up to 20 selected areas funded through the Community Transformation Grants Program. This is a population-based household assessment of persons 3 years of age and older who live in 20 CTG areas that are implementing interventions. Adults will be asked to complete an Adult Targeted Surveillance Survey as part of a standard protocol. A sample of househoulds from 8 of the areas will be selected to participate in an enhanced protocol that involves an in-home visit to collect biometric measures. All participants will be administered a questionnaire to assess core ACA outcomes.
This is a new ICR to support evaluation of ACA activities. Republication of the 30 day waived by OMB as the scope and methodology has not changed from the previous submission.
