Administration for Community Living; Agency Information 
Collection Activities: Proposed Collection; Public Comment Request; 
Protection and Advocacy for Traumatic Brain Injury (PATBI) Program 
Performance Report

AGENCY: Administration for Community Living, HHS.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Administration on Disability is announcing that the 
proposed collection of information listed above has been submitted to 
the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for review and clearance as 
required under section 506 (c)(2)(A) of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 
1995. This notice collects comments on the information collection 
requirements related to a new data collection (ICR New).

DATES: Submit written comments on the collection of information by May 
26, 2017.

ADDRESSES: Submit written comments on the collection of information by 
fax 202.395.5806 or by email to [email protected], Attn: OMB 
Desk Officer for ACL.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Wilma Roberts, Administration for 
Community Living, Administration on Intellectual and Developmental 
Disabilities, Office of Program Support, 330 C Street SW., Washington, 
DC 20201, by email: [email protected] or phone 202-795-7449.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: ACL has submitted the following proposed 
collection of information to OMB for review and clearance. The 
Children's Health Act of 2000, 42 U.S.C. Section 300d-53(h), requires 
the Protection and Advocacy (P&A) System in each State to annually 
prepare and submit to the Secretary a report that includes 
documentation of the progress they have made in serving individuals 
with traumatic brain injury. AIDD will review the program performance 
reports

[[Page 19246]]

(PPRs) for compliance and for program outcomes. AIDD also will 
aggregate the information in the PPRs into a national profile of 
programmatic activities and accomplishments. Information from these 
reports is shared with the public through postings to the ACL.gov Web 
site. The information will also allow AIDD to track accomplishments 
against performance goals and determine areas where technical 
assistance is needed to comply with Federal requirements or improve 
performance. The annual PPRs are reviewed by federal staff for 
compliance and performance in established outcome areas. Information in 
the PPRs is analyzed to create a national profile of programmatic 
compliance, outcomes, and goals and priorities for P&A Systems for 
tracking accomplishments, goals and to determine areas of technical 
assistance the P&As need related to compliance with Federal 
requirements and program performance. Information collected in the 
unified report will inform AIDD of trends in P&A advocacy, 
collaboration with other federally-funded entities, and identify best 
practices for efficient use of federal funds.

Comments in Response to the 60 Day Federal Register Notice

    A notice was published in the Federal Register in Vol. 82, No. 10, 
pages 4888-4889, on January 17, 2017, announcing that ACL was 
requesting approval of a new data collection. ACL has not received any 
comments expressing concern related to the new PPR reporting forms for 
the P&A program. However, additional technical changes were made to the 
PATBI PPR template to clarify certain information collection items in 
the form. In Part I, section C(1)--Public Relations and Outreach, ACL 
added the language ``racial and ethnic'' before the word ``minority'' 
to the section C(1) question, ``Describe the agency's outreach efforts 
to previously unserved or underserved individuals, including minority 
communities'' to make sure the question is clear. In Part II, section 
B, item 14.5 was updated to ``TANF'' from ``Welfare Reform,'' and item 
16 was updated to ``Other Government Benefits/Services'' from 
``Government Benefits/Services.'' Last, Part II, section H, item 2 was 
updated to ``American Indian/Alaska Native'' from ``American Indian/
Alaskan Native.''
    The PPR will allow federal staff to review the programs performance 
and achievement and assist where technical assistance is needed. 
Additionally, information contained in the PPR provides performance 
measures based on the annual reports. The performance data is reported 
to Congress under the Government Performance and Results Act 
Modernization Act (GPRAMA).
    The proposed Protection and or Traumatic Brain Injury (PATBI) 
Program Performance Report (PPR) form can be found on the AIDD Web site 
at: https://acl.gov/Programs/AIDD/Program_Resource_Search/Results_PA.aspx.
    ACL estimates the burden hours for this collection of information 
as follows:
