Abstract: HRSA/MCHB needs the Title V MCH Block Grant Jurisdictional MCH Survey to create a mechanism for jurisdictions to collect, report, and monitor 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.

Short Statement: The estimated annual burden in this revision package is 3,155 hours, a decrease from the previously estimated 3,481 hours in ICR 202404-0906-002. Although the total number of interviews has increased, the burden hours have declined due to two factors: (1) survey timings have been adjusted to reflect actual survey times from the three completed rounds of data collection, rather than prior estimates, and (2) eligibility assumptions and response rates have been updated based on actual results from the same three rounds of data collection experience.
