HRSA/MCHB needs the Title V MCH Block
Grant Jurisdictional MCH Survey to create a mechanism for
jurisdictions to begin collecting, reporting and monitoring key MCH
indicators over time. This data collection will enable the eight
jurisdictions (i.e., American Samoa, Federated States of
Micronesia, Guam, Marshall Islands, Northern Mariana Islands,
Palau, Puerto Rico, and U.S. Virgin Islands) to meet Federal
performance reporting requirements and to demonstrate the impact of
Title V funding relative to MCH outcomes for the U.S. jurisdictions
in reporting on their unique MCH priority needs. Having these data
will allow for better annual reporting by the Federal program
office in reporting to Congress on the jurisdictions’ Title V
program accomplishments.
The instruments are survey
screeners that the public will not see, therefore, no public burden
statement or OMB #s/Exp. Dates are indicated on the documents.
Burden increase is due to an increase in the sampling/respondent
amounts, as per the Jan 2021 Non-Substantive Change Memo.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that
the collection of information encompassed by this request complies
with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR
1320.8(b)(3).
The following is a summary of the topics, regarding
the proposed collection of information, that the certification
covers:
(i) Why the information is being collected;
(ii) Use of information;
(iii) Burden estimate;
(iv) Nature of response (voluntary, required for a
benefit, or mandatory);
(v) Nature and extent of confidentiality; and
(vi) Need to display currently valid OMB control
number;
If you are unable to certify compliance with any of
these provisions, identify the item by leaving the box unchecked
and explain the reason in the Supporting Statement.
