INTRODUCTION

Thank you for your participation in the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) Prevention Status Reports (PSRs) assessment. Your voluntary participation will help CDC gather important information regarding the PSRs. The PSRs are composed of

  • Reports by Topic – Ten individual topic-specific reports for each state (click here for an example)

  • State Report – a report for each state that combines all ten topic-specific reports for that state (click here for an example)

  • State Summary – a report for each state showing that state’s ratings for each PSR public health policy or practice indicator (click here for an example)

  • National Summary – a national report that shows the percentages of states rated green, yellow, or red for each PSR public health policy or practice indicator (click here for an example)


This questionnaire should take you about 15 minutes to complete.


Your participation in this assessment is greatly appreciated. The information you provide will help CDC more effectively support your efforts to advance evidence-based public health policy and practice.


Eligible participants for this assessment include state health department staff (e.g., state health officials, deputy health officials, program managers).


We will follow up with a randomly selected sample of respondents to request voluntary participation in a brief phone conversation to get a better understanding of their experiences with the PSRs.


Public reporting burden of this collection of information is estimated to average 15 minutes per response, including the time for reviewing the instructions, searching existing data sources, gathering and maintaining the data needed, and completing and reviewing the collection of information. An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. Send comments regarding this burden estimate or any other aspects of this collection of information, including suggestions for reducing this burden, to CDC/ATSDR Information Collection Review Office, 1600 Clifton Rd. NE, MS D-74, Atlanta, GA 30333; ATTN: PRA (0920-0879).


When navigating between pages please use the forward (>>) and back (<<) buttons located in the lower right corner of the assessment. Do NOT use your Internet browser buttons, as you will exit the assessment.
