An Information Collection Request (ICR) is a federal agency's request for approval from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) to collect information from the public.
Under the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA), agencies must justify why the information is needed and how it will be used.
Federal agencies are required to submit an ICR whenever they create, renew, modify, or discontinue an information collection. Each ICR includes a description of the collection,
supporting materials and documentation (such as forms, surveys, or scripts), and proof that the agency has met the requirements of the PRA.
The ICR is submitted to the The Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs (OIRA) within OMB for review and approval. OIRA grants approval for a maximum of three years, after
which the collection must be renewed through a new ICR submission.
ICRs are publicly available on RegInfo.gov, and additional guidance can be found in the FAQs.
Note: Presidential Action influences are notated for ICRs received between January 20, 2025 and July 19, 2025.

EDFacts Data Collection School Years 2022-23, 2023-24, and 2024-25 (With 2021-22 Continuation)
Key Information
Abstract
EDFacts is a U.S. Department of Education (ED) initiative, conducted by the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES), to collect, analyze, report on, and promote the use of high-quality, pre-kindergarten through grade 12 (pre-K-12) performance data. By centralizing data provided by state education agencies about state level data, local education agencies, and schools, NCES uses the EDFacts data to report on students, schools, staff, services, and education outcomes at the state, district, and school levels. The centralized approach provides ED users with the ability to efficiently analyze and report on submitted data and has reduced the reporting burden for state and local data producers through the use of streamlined data collection, analysis, and reporting tools. EDFacts collects information on behalf of ED grant and program offices for approximately 170 data groups for all 50 states, Washington DC, Puerto Rico, and seven outlying areas and freely associated states (American Samoa, Federated States of Micronesia, Guam, Marshall Islands, Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, Republic of Palau, and the U.S. Virgin Islands), the Department of Defense Education Activity (DoDEA), and the Bureau of Indian Education (BIE). This request is to collect EDFacts data for the 2022-23, 2023-24, and 2024-25 school years. This collection package will be available for public comment during two open periods, a 60 day and a 30 day, after which revisions will be made accordingly. As part of the public comment period review, ED requests that SEAs and other stakeholders respond to the directed questions found in Attachment D and D-1. Due to overlap in the timing of data collection activities between consecutive years of the EDFacts collection, we are carrying over in this submission the approved SY 2021-22 data collection, which is scheduled to end in February 2023. |

The purpose of the project is to conduct a comprehensive implementation and outcome evaluation to assess the unique contributions of The National Cardiovascular Health Program (The National CVH Program), The Innovative Cardiovascular Health Program (The Innovative CVH Program), and Well-Integrated Screening and Evaluation of Women Across the Nation (WISEWOMAN) cooperative agreements to identify promising cardiovascular disease (CVD) prevention and management practices that can be scaled and replicated, advance health equity, and the transformation of health systems for improved CVD prevention and management. The programs work together to create efficiencies and improve outcomes in jurisdictions that receive funding for two or more of the cooperative agreements. This Evaluation aims to assess implementation, assess the extent to which short-term, intermediate, and long-term outcomes have been met, and estimate the costs involved in program implementation. This Non-Substantive Change Request is submitted to revise questions to align with recent executive orders, EO 14168 and EO 14151.

Abstract
The Medical Monitoring Project (MMP) was designed to address the need for a national behavioral and clinical surveillance system for HIV-infected persons, as articulated in CDC's HIV Prevention Strategic Plan. It is a supplemental surveillance project designed to describe the health-related behaviors, experiences and needs of adults diagnosed with HIV in the United States. It's intended use is to guide national and local HIV-related service organization and delivery and to monitor receipt of HIV treatment and prevention services and clinical outcomes. The changes proposed in this revision update the data collection system to meet prevailing information needs and enhance the value of MMP data, while remaining concordant with the project’s purpose.

Veterans Engagement Action Center (VEAC) Surveys
Key Information
Abstract
Veterans Experience Action Center (VEAC) is a Veterans Affairs (VA) program established to proactively assist Veterans in a selected state with a one-stop resource for all their needs. The VEAC brings together VA benefits, health care and other resources in partnership with state VA resources. The VEAC gathers feedback from Veterans, Active Military, Guard/Reservist, Family members, caregivers, providers, and survivors. The VEAC then provides that feedback to VA leaders to measure the success of the outreach event and measure the ease, effectiveness, emotion, and trust from the participants as they exit. The surveys will further allow the Veterans Experience Office (VEO) to measure whether the needs of the participants were met. Additional areas where the survey results will impact: • Identifies gaps and challenges in health care, benefits, and service delivery. • Identifies areas for how VA can best support local efforts in a holistic fashion. • Identifies areas where there may be barriers to access, and outreach tailored to local communities. Per FY2021 MILCON House report 116-445, the Committee directs the VA to provide quarterly reports on the status of the implementation of the VEAC pilot program; the effectiveness of the pilot program at reaching Veterans, particularly those in need, and increasing utilization of VA services: • Congress (Quarterly Congressional Tracking Reports (CTRs) VEAC surveys afford VEAC participants the ability to provide feedback to VA and allow the customer to share their experiences. VEO uses the customer’s feedback to enhance and increase outreach and engagement efforts and determine the direct value of our efforts. The surveys and its delivery are an innovative approach to measure and improve customer experience based on the "voice of the Veteran." Through the use of the VSignals digital platform, VEO can identify gaps and challenges in the community, provide information on VA programs, increase access and outreach, identify what is and what is not working, and determine how VA can best support local community efforts in support of Veterans, families, caregivers, and survivors. The Veteran Experience Office (VEO) has also been commissioned to measure the satisfaction of Peer-to-Peer organizations and veterans who recently interacted with the VEAC. Survey respondents will be Veterans, Active Military, Guard/Reservist, family members, caregivers, and survivors that attend a VEAC event. Some VEAC participants may also be offered to provide feedback to surveys that capture their experience through their Peer-to-Peer connections or their attendance on a Veterans Experience Live Question and Answer event. Different surveys may be administered participants of events: 1. VEAC Exit Survey: Outreach event staff will verbally administer the survey to event attendees as the last step in the overall event process. The outreach staff will fill out the web-based survey on behalf of the outreach event participant. 2. VEAC Email Survey: A survey will be sent via email to event attendees that were not able to take the VEAC Exit Survey. The email survey will not be sent to event attendees that opted out of the VEAC Exit Survey. 3. Peer-to-Peer Survey: The survey is completed via an email-based survey design. After a Peer-to-Peer organization interacts with a VEAC Representative, the VEAC Representative will send an email to the Peer-to-Peer organization with a link to the Vsignals survey. The Peer-to-Peer organization can take the survey and share the survey to Veterans via email at the conclusion of each Peer-to-Peer interaction. Peer-to-Peer organizations and veterans will choose whether they want to participate in the survey. |
