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.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that
