Proposed Project
Title: Project LAUNCH Cross-Site
Evaluation.
OMB Number: New Collection.
Description: The Administration for
Children and Families (ACF), U.S.
Department of Health and Human
Services, is planning to collect data as
part of a cross-site evaluation of a new
initiative called Project LAUNCH
(Linking Actions for Unmet Needs in
Children’s Health). Project LAUNCH is
intended to promote the healthy
development and wellness of children
ages birth to eight years. A total of six
Project LAUNCH grantees are funded to
improve coordination among childserving systems, build infrastructure,
and improve methods for providing
services. Grantees will also implement a
range of public health strategies to
support young child wellness in a
designated locality.
Data for the cross-site evaluation of
Project LAUNCH will be collected

through: (1) Interviews conducted
during annual site-visits to Project
LAUNCH grantees, and (2) semi-annual
reports that will be submitted
electronically on a web-based data-entry
system. Information will be collected
from all six Project LAUNCH grantees.
During annual site visits, researchers
will conduct interviews with Project
LAUNCH service providers and
collaborators in States/tribes and local
communities of focus. Site visitors will
ask program administrators questions
about all Project LAUNCH activities,
including: infrastructure development;
collaboration and coordination among
partner agencies, organizations, and
service providers; and development,
implementation, and refinement of
service strategies.
As part of the proposed data
collection, Project LAUNCH staff will be
asked to submit semi-annual electronic
reports about the systems development,
services that children and families
receive, and provider, child and family
outcomes. The electronic data report
also will collect data about other Project
LAUNCH-funded service enhancements,
such as trainings, Project LAUNCH
systems change activities, and project
costs. Information provided in these
reports will be tracked on a monthly
basis.
Respondents: State/ tribal Child
Wellness Coordinator, State/ tribal

the child’s eligibility for title IV–E or
title XIX Medicaid and such services or
payments; and, (2) the in-kind
expenditures from third-party sources
permitted for the Tribal share of
administration and training
expenditures under title IV–E. This
notice is designed to provide a written
opportunity for comment to all
interested persons, and specifically the
affected States and to notify Tribal
leaders of in-person opportunities to
consult with the Children’s Bureau on
the development of these regulations.
DATES: Written comments must be
submitted to the office listed in the
ADDRESSES section below on or before
May 12, 2009. Please see

consultation meetings.

following methods:
