Subject: PHHS Block Grant Assessment – Announcement

Date: (TBD)

Greetings,

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), with support from the Association of State and Territorial Health Officials (ASTHO), is conducting a national assessment of the Preventive Health and Health Services (PHHS) Block Grant. The purpose of this assessment is to collect data and information on results or improvements achieved through the PHHS Block Grant.

Your voluntary participation involves reporting on the accomplishments that occurred from July 1, 2016, through June 30, 2017, regardless of the fiscal year funds that were used. The web-based questionnaire, available through the unique link below, will provide additional instruction and is estimated to take approximately 60 minutes to complete.

Use of the Findings from the Assessment

The findings from this assessment will be used to inform CDC of the outputs and cross-cutting outcomes of the PHHS Block Grant, refinements to the existing measures, and the development of future measures for assessment purposes. No personally identifiable information will be collected. Responses will be kept secure and results will be reported only in aggregate form. Findings will be shared with various stakeholders, including grantees, and may be included in articles and reports that will be made available publicly.
