-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Administration for Children and Families (ACF), Office of
Refugee Resettlement (ORR) is requesting a revision of the ORR-6
Performance Report (OMB #0970-0036, expiration 2/28/2022). Proposed
revisions include new data collection primarily for the new Refugee
Health Promotion (RHP) set-aside program, and reformatting and
revisions of instructions and forms for clarity.
DATES: Comments due within 60 days of publication. In compliance with
the requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, ACF is
soliciting public comment on the specific aspects of the information
collection described above.
ADDRESSES: Copies of the proposed collection of information can be

information collection.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Description: ACF/ORR requests information from the ORR-6
Performance Report to determine effectiveness of state Cash and Medical
Assistance (CMA) and Refugee Support Services programs. ORR uses state-
by-state CMA utilization rates, derived from the ORR-6 Performance
Report, to formulate program initiatives, priorities, standards, budget
requests, and assistance policies. Federal regulations require state
Refugee Resettlement, Replacement Designee agencies, and local
governments submit statistical or programmatic information that the ORR
Director determines to be required to fulfill their responsibility
under the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA). The existing ORR-6 was
revised to include data collection for the new RHP set-aside program,
add new data elements to better understand the meaning of existing data
collection, and update the instructions and reformat some of the forms
to provide clearer definitions and better distinguish the participation
and performance results of different support services programs.
Respondents: State governments and Replacement Designees.
