ACTION: Notice. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY: The Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), Maternal and Child Health Bureau (MCHB), announces the funding opportunity for the Bridging the Word Gap Incentive Prize Challenge. MCHB is sponsoring the Word Gap Challenge (Challenge) to spur innovative solutions to promote the early language environment and address the ``word gap,'' the large difference in exposure to language for children from low-income families as compared to children from higher-income families. This Challenge will reward the development and testing of scalable innovations that drive behavior change among parents and caregivers. The goal of the Challenge is to develop a low-cost, scalable technologically-based intervention that drives parents and caregivers to talk and engage in more back-and-forth interactions with their young children (ages 0-4). This Challenge, structured in three phases, with a narrowing of applicants through each phase to result in one final winner, will reach a diverse population of innovators and solvers, including coders, public health experts, individuals affiliated with academic institutions, research and development communities in the private sector, and others. All submissions will be evaluated; separate prizes will be awarded for each of the three phases below. Phase 1: Design Phase 2: Development and Small Scale Testing Phase 3: Scaling The statutory authority for this challenge competition is Section 105 of the America COMPETES Reauthorization Act of 2010 (COMPETES Act, Pub. L. 111-358). Estimated dates for each phase are as follows: Phase 1: Effective on September 30, 2015 Phase 1 Submission ends: December 31, 2015, 11:59 p.m. ET Phase 1 Judging Period: January 1-January 31, 2016 [[Page 55862]] Phase 1 Winners Announced: February 10, 2016 Phase 2 Begins: February 11, 2016 Phase 2 Submission Period Ends: July 11, 2016 Phase 2 Judging Period: July 12-August 12, 2016 Phase 2 Winners Announced: August 20, 2016 Phase 3 Begins: August 21, 2016 Phase 3 Submission Period Ends: February 21, 2017 Phase 3 Winner Announced: March 1, 2017 FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Jessie Buerlein, MSW, 301-443-8931, or James Resnick, 301-443-3222. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Subject of Challenge Competition There is evidence that socioeconomic status (SES) is a strong indicator of school achievement, and that children from lower SES backgrounds exhibit a delay in early literacy skills, a slower vocabulary acquisition rate, and lower school readiness rates.\1\ Once American children enter kindergarten, there is a significant, prevalent gap between children from higher versus lower SES backgrounds in average oral language skills,\2\ referred to as the ``word gap.'' There is also growing evidence that early language exposure for children may not only have a significant influence on language development and school achievement, but on the overall trajectory of children's lives, including later academic and occupation success.\3\ Existing literature reveals several key themes in addressing the language gap, including the significant role of the caregiver in the home, and the effectiveness of engaging parents in language interventions.\4\ A significant influence on children's language development is the context of parenting and parent responsiveness to children's early language acquisition.\5\ Research in this area shows that both the quality and quantity of speech spoken at home during daily interactions influences the relationship between SES and child language skills at school entry.\6\ However, research also shows that interventions engaging parents and increasing their knowledge of child development and the importance of child-directed talk may be an effective route to preventing and addressing the SES language gap.\7\ --------------------------------------------------------------------------- \1\ Suskind D., Kuhl, P., Leffel, K.R., Landry, S., Cunha, F., & Necherman, K.M.

The frequency and quality of child-directed talk and back and forth interactions between children and their parents have consequences for what is learned and is associated with significant disparities in vocabulary size, school readiness, and long-term educational outcomes. Technologies now exist to support low-cost, broadly scalable approaches to helping parents and caregivers focus on the early language environment, and the technical expertise exists to address the issue in creative ways. This challenge aims to cultivate an environment to attract a broad array of innovators from outside disciplines to propose inventive, creative, and effective ideas to address the word gap by encouraging higher frequency and higher quality interaction between parents/caregivers and children. This is an opportunity for applicants to get national visibility, by the leading experts and organizations in the field, for new ideas on solving this problem of national importance. This is also an opportunity for applicants to access testing environments and design expertise as they move forward through the Challenge phases. When developing submissions, participants should consider the context of the user. The submission should be easily utilized by those of diverse cultural, socioeconomic, and literacy level backgrounds, including parents and children who are dual language speakers.

Phase 1--Design The first stage of the prize competition aims to attract a large set of ideas and innovators. The target product of the first stage will be the conceptualization of the most promising innovations to help support parental and caregiver behavior change around the early language environment. The submissions should aim to demonstrate that the proposed intervention will be accessible across diverse backgrounds and easily implemented by users. The Phase 1 Submission shall include: 1. A comprehensive description of the proposed intervention in 5 pages or less, including: a. A one-paragraph executive summary that clearly states the question to be solved; b. Background information linking the evidence to support the intervention; c. A descriptive analysis of how the applicant arrived at their idea; d. Descriptions of the methods and technologies involved in implementation of the intervention; and 2. An assessment describing the applicant's ability to execute the proposed solution in Phase 2 and 3. Phase 2--Development and Small Scale Testing The winners of Phase 1 of the prize competition will then advance to a second stage focused on prototyping the intervention, and testing the effectiveness of the intervention. Using support from the Phase 1 prize funding, intervention developers will test the efficacy of their models to show that the proposed intervention demonstrates an impact on the outcomes of interest for children and families. The applicants should demonstrate both the evidence base for the intervention and its usability. Mentors will be made available to help solvers design appropriate testing methodologies and learn more about the evidence base. Phase 3--Scaling The winners of Phase 2 will move to the final phase of the Word Gap Incentive Prize, which will involve testing the most promising models at greater scale through rollout at the program or community level. This will test the scalability of the device at low-cost, the feasibility of implementation, and the impact on the intended outcomes. Applicants will be assisted in matching their submission with a community or program. Registration Process for Participants Participants can find out more information at https://www.challenge.gov/list/. PrizesTotal: Up to $300,000 in Prizes [cir] Phase 1: 7-10 winners, up to $10,000 each [cir] Phase 2: 3-5 winners; up to $25,000 each [cir] Phase 3: 1 winner; up to $100,000 Payment of the Prizes Prize will be paid by HRSA's Maternal and Child Health Bureau. Basis for Winner Selection The challenge entries will be de-identified and then will be judged by a review panel composed of HHS employees and experts in compliance with the requirements of the COMPETES Act and the Department of Health and Human Services judging guidelines: http://www.hhs.gov/idealab/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/HHS-COMPETITION-JUDGING-GUIDELINES.pdf. The review panel will make selections based upon the following criteria: Phase 1 In Phase 1, proposed interventions to be judged on the following criteria: Accessibility Is the proposed intervention able to be easily utilized by parents of diverse economic, social, and cultural backgrounds? Is it functional across disciplines/users? Measurability How easily will the proposed intervention be evaluated in order to determine its efficacy (in both lab testing and in the real world)? Is the proposed intervention measurable among various audiences? Sustainability Is the proposed intervention ``sticky?'' Does it fit into daily life? Is it fun to use? Impact Does the applicant present a theory or explanation of how the proposed intervention would inspire behavior change? Phase 2 In Phase 2, interventions will be judged on the following criteria: Impact How did the intervention impact target outcomes for parents/caregivers and children? What did the data show? Evidence base Is the intervention grounded in existing science related to the word gap, behavior change, etc.? Sustainability Was the intervention ``sticky'' among users? Did users want to continuously engage with the program? Implementation How feasible is the intervention? How much support for implementation will the intervention require (estimated financial and time commitment)? Phase 3 In Phase 3, interventions will be judged on the following criteria: Impact How effective was the intervention when implemented at scale? Did the impacts on parents/caregivers from Phase 2 remain consistent? Implementation How feasible was the intervention on a larger scale? How much support for implementation did the model require (financial and time commitment)? How challenging was the actual program implementation? Scalability How costly was the intervention in a real-world setting? How likely are cost efficiencies for program delivery at greater scale? Can the device be used in existing platforms?
