SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Description: The NEW Program Plan Guidance documents specify the

program. ACF proposes a change in how draft plans are submitted. The 
program report provides HHS, Congress, and grantees information to 
document and assess the activities and accomplishments of the NEW 
program. ACF proposes to extend data collection with revisions that 
clarify that programs should not count more than once individuals who 
meet multiple categories; for example, persons age 20 are both youth 
and adults, but they should be counted as one or the other, not both.
    Respondents: Indian tribes and tribal coalitions that operate NEW 
programs.
