Abstract: The Office on Women's Health (OWH), within the Office of
the Assistant Secretary for Health, will conduct the Multisite
Evaluation of the In Community Spirit Program--Prevention of HIV/AIDS
for Native/American Indian and Alaska Native (AI/AN) Women Living in

Community Spirit Program is an initiative comprising three types of
program components being implemented with women in AI/AN communities
for HIV prevention: (1) Community awareness, (2) capacity building, and
(3) prevention education. The multisite evaluation will provide data on
the content and context of programs and the outcomes of program
activities on participant knowledge and behavior related to sexual
health.
The multisite evaluation is comprised of two main activities across
three program components: (1) Surveys and (2) key informant interviews.
There are two versions of key informant interviews: baseline and
follow-up. There are also two versions of the survey: (1) Community
Awareness Version for administration with women targeted through the
community awareness activities and (2) Prevention Education Version to
be administered to women who receive prevention education through the
program.
The average annual respondent burden is estimated below. The
estimate reflects the average annual number of respondents, the average
annual number of responses, the time it will take for each response,
and the average annual burden across 3 years of OMB clearance, which
includes 2 years of data collection.
