*Needs and uses:* The Independent Review Commission on Sexual Assault in the Military recommended that the Department establish a prevention workforce model (Recommendation 2.2a) and an integrated primary prevention workforce (IPPW, Recommendation 2.2c), and this recommendation was endorsed by Secretary of Defense as a priority for DoD. To that end, the DoD is planning to hire a new Integrated Primary Prevention Workforce (IPPW) of approximately 2,000 personnel. Following the approval of the model, the OUSD(P&R) directed an evaluation of the new workforce to assess its implementation. The OUSD(P&R) within the DoD is requesting OMB clearance to evaluate the how well the IPPW was established and the quality of the prevention activities they implement. This evaluation will collect a variety of information about the IPPW and their activities (Hiring numbers of the IPPW, online IPP Personnel Survey, Case Studies, Supervisor/Leader Interviews, and Integrated Primary Prevention Activity Tracker). This data will be used to improve the implementation of integrated primary prevention activities within DoD. Information collection efforts will align to the IRC Line of Effort 2—Prevention.
