Consent Training and Coordination

Health Resources and Services Administration’s Evaluation of the Text4baby Program:

Burden associated with Consent Training and Coordination

Health Center Study Coordinators: HRSA will provide standard interview training to Health Center Study Coordinators for this study. Interviewer training will stress the importance of asking all questions that involve sensitive issues in a professional and non-judgmental manner.

Health Centers: Health Centers will receive training on the appropriate procedures to recruit eligible women, obtain women’s consent to participate in the study, and convey their information to the study team who will conduct the survey via telephone. HRSA will work with the HCCNs/health centers to customize consent procedures so they are acceptable to both HRSA and the HCCNs/health centers.

The estimated annualized burden is as follows:

Instrument	Person Incurring Burden	Number of Respondents	Responses per Respondent	Total Responses	Hours per Response	Total Burden Hours
Consent Training and Coordination	Health Center Study Coordinators	8	12	96	1.00	96
	Health Center Staff	32	1	32	1.00	32
