Overview of This Information Collection

    (1) Type of Information Collection: Extension of a currently 
approved collection
    (2) Title of the Form/Collection: Semi-Annual Progress Report for 
Grantees from Grants to Enhance Culturally and Linguistically Specific 
Services for Victims of Domestic Violence, Dating Violence, Sexual 
Assault, and Stalking Program (Culturally and Linguistically Specific

Department of Justice sponsoring the collection: Form Number: 1122-
0021. 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 the 
approximately 50 grantees of the Culturally and Linguistically Specific 
Services Program. The program funds projects that promote the 
maintenance and replication of existing successful domestic violence, 
dating violence, sexual assault, and stalking community-based programs 
providing culturally and linguistically specific services and other 
resources. The program also supports the development of innovative 
culturally and linguistically specific strategies and projects to 
enhance access to services and resources for victims of violence 
against women.

of time estimated for an average respondent to respond/reply: It is 
estimated that it will take the approximately 50 respondents 
(Culturally and Linguistically Specific Services Program grantees) 
approximately one hour to complete a semi-annual progress report. The 
semi-annual progress report is divided into sections that pertain to 
the different types of activities in which grantees may engage. A 
Culturally and Linguistically Specific Services Program grantee will 
only be required to complete the sections of the form that pertain to 
its own specific activities.
    (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 100 hours, that is 50 grantees completing a form 
twice a year with an estimated completion time for the form being one
