SUMMARY: The Administration for Children and Families' (ACF) 
Administration for Native Americans (ANA) is requesting a 2-year 
extension to the following information collection: Annual Data Report 
(ADR) (OMB #0970-0475; expiration date: 2/28/2022). There are no 
changes requested to the form.

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: You can obtain copies of the proposed collection of 
information and submit comments by emailing <a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#650c0b030a060a09090006110c0a0b250406034b0d0d164b020a13"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="8be2e5ede4e8e4e7e7eee8ffe2e4e5cbeae8eda5e3e3f8a5ece4fd">[email&#160;protected]</span></a>. 
Identify all requests by the title of the information collection.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Description: ANA collects the information in the ADR on an annual 
basis to monitor the performance of grantees and better gauge grantee 
progress. The majority of grantees submit this information through the 
On-going Progress Report (OMB #0970-0452), but there is a subset of 
about 80 grantees who still use the ADR and will continue to use the 
ADR through the end of their grants.
    The ADR information collection is conducted in accordance with sec. 
811 [42 U.S.C. 2992] of the Native American Programs Act and will allow 
ANA to report quantifiable results across all program areas. It also 
provides grantees with parameters for reporting their progress and 
helps ANA better monitor and determine the effectiveness of their 
projects.
    Respondents: Tribal Government, Native non-profit organizations, 
and
