[Federal Register Volume 81, Number 68 (Friday, April 8, 2016)] [Notices] [Pages 20676-20677] From the Federal Register Online [www.thefederalregister.org] [FR Doc No: 2016-08087] ----------------------------------------------------------------------- DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE [OMB Number 1122-NEW] Agency Information Collection Activities; Proposed eCollection eComments Requested; Campus Program Grantee Needs and Progress Assessment Tool AGENCY: Office on Violence Against Women, Department of Justice. ACTION: 30-day notice. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY: The Department of Justice (DOJ), Office on Violence Against Women, will be submitting the following information collection request to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for review and approval in accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. The proposed information collection was previously published in the Federal Register at 81 FR 5484, on February 2, 2016, allowing for a 60 day comment period. DATES: Comments are encouraged and will be accepted for an additional 30 days until May 9, 2016. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: If you have comments especially on the estimated public burden or associated response time, suggestions, or need a copy of the proposed information collection instrument with instructions or additional information, please contact Cathy Poston, Attorney Advisor, Office on Violence Against Women, 145 N Street NE., Washington, DC 20530 (phone: 202-514-5430). Written comments and/or suggestions can also be directed to the Office of Management and Budget, Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, Attention Department of Justice Desk Officer, Washington, DC 20530 or sent to [email protected]. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Written comments and suggestions from the public and affected agencies concerning the proposed collection of information are encouraged. Your comments should address one or more of the following four points: --Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency, including whether the information will have practical utility; --Evaluate the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden of the proposed collection of information, including the validity of the methodology and assumptions used; --Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and --Minimize the burden of the collection of information on those who are to respond, including through the use of appropriate automated, electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or other forms of information technology, e.g., permitting electronic submission of responses. Overview of this information collection: (1) Type of Information Collection: New collection. (2) Title of the Form/Collection: Campus Program Grantee Needs and Progress Assessment Tool. (3) Agency form number, if any, and the applicable component of the Department of Justice sponsoring the collection: Form Number: 1122-NEW. U.S. Department of Justice, Office on Violence Against Women. (4) Affected public who will be asked or required to respond, as well as a brief abstract: The affected public includes current grantees under the Grants to Reduce Sexual Assault, Domestic Violence, Dating Violence, and Stalking on Campus Program. The Campus Program strengthens the response of institutions of higher education to the crimes of sexual assault, domestic violence, dating violence and stalking on campuses and enhances collaboration among campuses, local law enforcement, and victim advocacy organizations. Eligible applicants are institutions of higher education. The affected public includes the approximately 100 institutions of higher education currently funded through the Campus program. The Grantee Needs and Progress Assessment Tool will be used to determine the training and technical assistance needs of Campus Program grantees--both new and continuation grantees-- throughout the life of the grant award as well measure the development of the capacity of grantees to respond and prevent violence against women on their campuses. In addition, the tool will help campuses and OVW document the impact of their grant-funded work, promote sustainability of important intervention and prevention activities, and provide outcome-based information throughout the life of the grant to help OVW-funded technical assistance providers and grantees make changes to the goals and objectives necessary to achieve the statutory intent when Congress authorized the Campus Program. There is a need for a more effective assessment tool that better achieves the following purposes: (1) Assess grantee needs and resources related to achieving the program's core [[Page 20677]] competencies that are central to the goals of the Campus Program; (2) assess capacity building by the grantees over the three year grant period which will help campuses and OVW document the impact of their work and promote sustainability, (3) provide information throughout the grant cycle to help technical assistance providers and campuses work together to achieve key goals of the Campus Program. This data collection tool will promote matching the specific technical assistance needs of each campus and also reflection by the grantees on their goals for the grant. The questions will be given in an online survey platform. The questions are mainly multiple choice. The few narrative questions used are brief and require one or two sentence answers. (5) An estimate of the total number of respondents and the amount of time estimated for an average respondent to respond/reply: It is estimated that it will take the approximately 100 respondents (Campus Program grantees) approximately 2 hours to complete an online assessment tool. (6) An estimate of the total public burden (in hours) associated with the collection: The total annual hour burden to complete the data collection forms is 200 hours, that is 100 grantees completing a tool once a year with an estimated completion time for the form being 2 hours. If additional information is required contact: Jerri Murray, Department, Clearance Officer, United States Department of Justice, Justice Management Division, Policy and Planning Staff, Two Constitution Square, 145 N Street NE., Room 3E.405B, Washington, DC 20530.
