Recommendations for Executive Action
| Agency Affected | Recommendation | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Centers for Disease Control and Prevention | In view of the potential duplication in CDC-funded activities, the Director, CDC, should consider merging CCDPHP activities aimed at out-of-school youth education into CPS. |
CDC did not concur with the GAO recommendation. CDC wishes to retain activities aimed at out-of-school youth in CCDPHP, with coordination with other CDC groups serving the same youth overseen by the CDC Deputy Director for HIV.
