Proposed Information Collection Activity; Comment Request

Proposed Projects

    Title: Assets for Independence Program Performance Progress Report.
    OMB No.: New.

Description

    The Assets for Independence (AFI) Act (Title IV of the Community 
Opportunities, Accountability, and Training and Educational Services 
Act of 1998, Pub. L. 105-285, [42 U.S.C. 604 note]) requires that 
organizations operating AFI projects submit annual progress reports.
    This request is to create an AFI program specific Performance 
Progress Report (PPR) to replace the semiannual standard form 
performance progress report (SF-PPR) and the annual data report. The 
AFI PPR will collect data on project activities and attributes similar 
to the reports that it is replacing. The Office of Community Services 
(OCS) in the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) will use 
the data collected in the AFI PPR to prepare the annual AFI Report to 
Congress, to evaluate and monitor the performance of the AFI program 
overall and of individual projects, and to inform and support technical 
assistance efforts. The AFI PPR would fulfill AFI Act reporting 
requirements and program purposes.
    The AFI PPR will be submitted quarterly: Three times per year using 
an abbreviated short form and one time using a long form. Both draft 
data collection instruments are available for review online at https://idaresources.acf.hhs.gov/AFIPPR.
    Note: This request does not affect financial reporting requirements 
for AFI grantees. The SF-425 will still be required semiannually 
throughout the grant project period with a final report due 90 days 
after the grant project period ends.
    Respondents: Assets for Independence (AFI) program grantees.
