Agency Information Collection Activities: Proposed Collection;
Comment Request
In compliance with the requirement for the opportunity for public
comment on proposed data collection projects (section 3506(c)(2)(A) of
Title 44, United States Code, as amended by the Paperwork Reduction Act
of 1995, Pub. L. 104-13), the Health Resources and Services
Administration (HRSA) publishes periodic summaries of proposed projects

obtain a copy of the data collection plans and draft instruments, call
the HRSA Reports Clearance Officer at (301) 443-1129.
Comments are invited on: (a) Whether the proposed collection of

the Agency, including whether the information shall have practical
utility; (b) the accuracy of the Agency's estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information; (c) ways to enhance the quality,

Proposed Project: Implementation of a Feedback Form for MCH Alert
Subscribers--NEW
The MCH Alert is a free weekly electronic newsletter that provides
timely reference to research findings, policy developments, recently
released publications, and new programs and initiatives affecting the
maternal and child health (MCH) community. The goal is to make MCH news
and policy more accessible to health professionals, policymakers,
family advocates, community service professionals, MCH/public health
faculty and students, families, and the public. Each Friday, MCH Alert
is electronically distributed to over 4,000 subscribers across the
country. Visitors to the Web site can review archives of past issues,
search for specific topics, link to reports and resources discussed,
and find subscription information.
The overall goal of the Feedback Form is to determine whether the
MCH Alert topics and format continue to meet subscriber needs.
Specifically, the form will provide a means for assessing (1) the
usefulness of the information and service and (2) the effectiveness of
targeted outreach efforts.
