Awardee Lead Profile Assessment (ALPA)

Form Approved

OMB No.0920-xxxx

Expiration Date xx/xx/201x

Welcome to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) annual assessment for state and local healthy homes and lead poisoning prevention programs.

You have been asked to take part in this assessment as a state or local public official operating in your official capacity as decision-maker within a lead and healthy homes program.

The purpose of the assessment is to identify 1) jurisdictional legal frameworks governing CDC-funded childhood lead poisoning prevention programs in the United States, and 2) strategies for implementing childhood lead poisoning prevention activities in the United States.

This information collection will allow the CDC Healthy Homes and Lead Poisoning Prevention Program to identify specific factors that may support or hinder the efforts of state and local public health agencies engaged in lead poisoning prevention. The information collection will inform guidance, resource development and technical assistance activities the CDC Healthy Homes and Lead Poisoning Prevention Program conducts in support of the ultimate elimination goal. Assessment findings will be shared on CDC’s Healthy Homes and Lead Poisoning Prevention Program website and in response to inquiries by the public, press, and Congress.

The data will be kept secure throughout the analysis and reporting process.

This assessment should take no more than 7 minutes to complete. You may stop taking the assessment and finish it at a later time. To re-enter the web survey, the tool will provide you with a unique link and passcode for return access. Please do not take this assessment on a mobile device while you are driving.

Please complete the assessment by [BLANK DATE].

Participation is required for satisfactory performance. No individually identifiable information will be requested.

If you have programmatic questions, you can contact CDC Healthy Homes and Lead Poisoning Prevention Program Chief Adrienne S. Ettinger, ScD at [email protected] or 770-488-7492.
