processed and used in a timely manner; (3) is the estimate of burden 
accurate; (4) how might the Department enhance the quality, utility, 
and clarity of the information to be collected; and (5) how might the

of information technology. Please note that written comments received 
in response to this notice will be considered public records.
    Title of Collection: Preschool Development Grants--Preschool Pay 
for Success Feasibility Pilot.
    OMB Control Number: 1810-NEW.
    Type of Review: A new information collection.
    Respondents/Affected Public: State, Local, and Tribal Governments.
    Total Estimated Number of Annual Responses: 14.
    Total Estimated Number of Annual Burden Hours: 2,800.
    Abstract: Pay For Success (PFS) is an innovative contracting and 
financing model that tests and advances promising and proven 
interventions, while providing taxpayer (or other) dollars for 
successful outcomes for families, individuals, and communities. Through 
a PFS project, government (or another entity) enters into a contract 
with an investor to pay for services provided to specific people or 
communities once concrete, measurable outcomes have been achieved. 
Payments are made only if interventions achieve the outcomes agreed 
upon in advance. Where PFS financing is used, the government (or other 
entity) typically makes Outcomes Payments that cover the cost of 
services and also offer Investors a modest return, which typically 
amounts to a fraction of the short and long-term cost savings to the 
government (or other entity) from the successful outcomes.
    The first step in exploring implementing preschool services through 
PFS is a Feasibility Study. A Feasibility Study establishes whether PFS 
is viable, for a specific intervention, in a specific jurisdiction and 
geographic area. It identifies potential Outcome Measures for the 
project and evaluates the feasibility of implementing or scaling a 
specific intervention for an identified Target Population. The study 
analyzes and quantifies the fiscal benefits for government and societal 
benefits that result if the Outcome Measures are achieved for the 
target population. It may also identify statutory and legal barriers, 
as well as potential partners for PFS. This information collection is 
an application package for a competition that seeks to award grants for 
Feasibility Studies to measure the viability of preschool pay for 
success projects.
