SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Description: The Foster Care Independence Act of 1999 (42 U.S.C. 
1305 et seq.) as amended by Public Law 106-169 requires state child 
welfare agencies to collect and report to ACF Children's Bureau data on 
the characteristics of youth receiving independent living services and 
information regarding their outcomes. The regulation implementing the 
NYTD, listed in 45 CFR 1356.80, contains standard data collection and 
reporting requirements for states to meet the law's requirements. 
Additionally, the Family First Prevention Services Act of 2017 (H.R. 
253) further outlines the expectation of the collection and reporting 
of data and outcomes regarding youth who are in receipt of independent 
living services. ACF uses the information collected under the 
regulation to track independent living services, assess the collective 
outcomes of youth, and potentially to evaluate state performance with 
regard to those outcomes consistent with the law's mandate.
    Respondents: State agencies that administer the Chafee Foster Care 
Program for Successful Transition to Adulthood (Chafee program) and 
youth served by these agencies.
