ACTION:
Request for Public Comments.
SUMMARY:
The Administration for Children and Families (ACF) is requesting a 3-year extension of the Grant Application Instrument and Instructions (Office of Management and Budget (OMB) #0970-0207, expiration June 30, 2025). The updated grant application reduces the amount of documentation required from grant recipients, both in the baseline application and the continuation application, by reducing the number of required documents to support the application and reducing the amount of required information in the program and budget justification narrative. The goal of these changes is to reduce grant recipient burden.
DATES:
Comments due August 15, 2025. OMB must decide about the collection of information between 30 and 60 days after publication of this document in the Federal Register . Therefore, a comment is best assured of having its full effect if OMB receives it within 30 days of publication.
ADDRESSES:
