The National Network of University Centers for Excellence in Developmental Disabilities Education, Research, and Service (UCEDDs) is authorized under Part D of the Developmental Disabilities Assistance and Bill of Rights Act of 2000 (DD Act of 2000)
The DD Act directs the Secretary of Health and Human Services to develop and implement a system of program accountability to monitor the grantees funded under the DD Act of 2000 [Section 104 (a) (42 USC 15004)], including the UCEDDs. Section 154 (e) (42 USC 15064) of the DD Act of 2000 includes requirements for a UCEDD Annual Report.
Section 104 (a) (42 USC 15004) of the Developmental Disabilities Assistance and Bill of Rights Act of 2000 (DD Act) directs the Secretary of Health and Human Services to develop and implement a system of program accountability to monitor the grantees funded under the DD Act of 2000. The program accountability system must include UCEDDs authorized under Part D of the DD Act of 2000. Section 154 (e) (42 USC 15064) of the DD Act of 2000 includes requirements for a UCEDD Annual Report. The UCEDD Annual Report should contain information on progress made in achieving the projected goals of the Center for the previous year, including:
(1) The extent to which the goals were achieved;
(2) A description of the strategies that contributed to achieving the goals;
(3) The extent goals were not achieved, a description of factors that impeded the achievement; and
(4) An accounting of the manner in which funds paid to the Center under this subtitle for a fiscal year were expended.
In addition, the DD Act requires information on proposed revisions to the goals; and a description of successful efforts to leverage funds, other than funds made available under the DD Act.
The DD Act also states grantees must report on:
(1) Consumer satisfaction with the advocacy, capacity building, and systemic change activities of the UCEDD;
(2) The extent to which the UCEDDâs advocacy, capacity building, and systemic change activities resulted in improvements; and
(3) The extent to which collaboration was achieved in the areas of advocacy, capacity building, and systemic change.
Currently, UCEDDs engage in four broad tasks: conducting interdisciplinary training, promoting exemplary community service programs and providing technical assistance at all levels from local service delivery to community and state governments, conducting research, and disseminating information to the field. There are 67 UCEDDs throughout the United States with at least one or more in every State and Territory, as mandated.
This is a revision of a currently approved information collection. While the IC remains the same and is consistent with currently approved data elements, the revisions are specifically designed to include a reporting mechanism to provide information to ACL on their use of funds to support people with intellectual and developmental disabilities through Centers for Disease Control (CDC) funds to expand vaccine access and the Public Health Workforce funds (PHWF) to strengthen the public health workforce.
US Code:
42 USC 104

This is a revision to an existing IC that add items for UCEDDs to provide information to ACL on their use of funds to support people with intellectual and developmental disabilities through CDC funds designed to expand vaccine access and the Public Health Workforce funds (PHWF) to strengthen the public health workforce.
There is an adjustment increase of 6,298 hours for CDC and PHWF reporting requirements. The PPR burden remains consistent.
