    Title: Tribal Maternal, Infant, and Early Childhood Home Visiting 
Program Implementation Plan Guidance and Form 1: Demographic and 
Service Utilization Data.
    OMB No.: 0970-0389 (expired).
    Description: Social Security Act, Title V, Section 511 (42 U.S.C. 
711), as amended by the Medicare Access and Children's Health Insurance 
Program (CHIP) Reauthorization Act of 2015 (Public Law (Pub. L.) 114-
10), created the Maternal, Infant, and Early Childhood Home Visiting 
Program (MIECHV) and authorized the Secretary of HHS (in Section 
511(h)(2)(A)) to award grants to Indian tribes (or a consortium of 
Indian tribes), tribal organizations, or urban Indian organizations to 
conduct an early childhood home visiting program. The legislation set 
aside 3 percent of the total MIECHV program appropriation (authorized 
in Section 511(j)) for grants to tribal entities. Tribal MIECHV grants, 
to the greatest extent practicable, are to be consistent with the 
requirements of the MIECHV grants to states and jurisdictions 
(authorized in Section 511(c)), and include conducting a needs 
assessment and establishing quantifiable, measurable benchmarks.
    The Administration for Children and Families, Office of Child Care 
and Office of the Deputy Assistant Secretary for Early Childhood 
Development, in collaboration with the Health Resources and Services 
Administration, Maternal and Child Health Bureau, awarded grants for 
the Tribal MIECHV Program. The Tribal MIECHV grant awards support 5-
year cooperative agreements to conduct community needs and readiness 
assessments, plan for and implement high-quality, culturally-relevant, 
evidence-based home visiting programs in at-risk Tribal communities, 
and engage in rigorous evaluation activities to build the knowledge 
base on home visiting among American Indian and Alaska Native 
populations.
    In Year 1 of the cooperative agreement, grantees must (1) conduct a 
comprehensive community needs and readiness assessment and (2) develop 
a plan to respond to identified needs. Grantees will be required to 
conduct or update a needs and readiness assessment and develop an 
implementation plan to respond to those needs, including a plan for 
demographic and service utilization data, performance measurement, and 
continuous quality improvement, and participating in or conducting 
rigorous evaluation activities. Grantees are expected to submit the 
implementation plan by the end of Year 1 of the grant, with draft 
submission milestones throughout the first year. As part of the non-
competing continuation application for Years 3-5 of the grant, Tribal 
MIECHV grantees will update their implementation plans as necessary to 
ensure that the plan accurately reflects activities to be completed 
throughout the remainder of the grant.
    Following each year that Tribal MIECHV grantees implement home 
visiting services, they must also submit Form 1: Demographic and 
Service Utilization Data.
    Respondents: Tribal Maternal, Infant, and Early Childhood Home 
Visiting Program Grantees. (The information collection does not include 
direct interaction with individuals or families that receive the 
services).
