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.
In order to minimize respondent
burden, data will be collected using tablets, such as iPads, to
capture survey data. The use of tablets presents an efficient and
secure way to collect data. It is not likely that there will be
reliable internet availability in many of the data collection
locations; therefore, the tablets will be loaded with a survey that
can be administered offline, allowing the interviewers to launch
and collect data anywhere.
