Universal Project Description
AGENCY: Office of Planning, Research, and Evaluation, Administration
for Children and Families, U.S. Department of Health and Human
Services.
ACTION: Request for public comments.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Administration for Children and Families (ACF) is
requesting approval of the ACF Congressionally Directed Community
Projects--Universal Project Description (CDCP-UPD). This new
information collection is proposed to collect information from
recipients of ACF Congressionally Directed funds. A Congressional
Directive is an authorization act or appropriations act that requires
ACF to make an award(s) to a named recipient(s) for a particular
program, project, activity, or geographic area(s).
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#37786765725e59515854585b5b5254435e585977565451195f5f4419505841"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="ce819e9c8ba7a0a8a1ada1a2a2abadbaa7a1a08eafada8e0a6a6bde0a9a1b8">[email protected]</span></a>. Identify all requests by the title of
the information collection.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Description: CDCP recipients are identified
annually by Congress through Appropriations for ACF. The CDCP-UPD will
provide standard language and sections available for use by ACF program
offices to solicit the required project description and project budget
information from recipients of CDCP projects. Applications are required
for CDCP as prescribed by HHS regulations 45 CFR 75.203. In addition to
the information required by regulation, the CDCP-UPD will provide a
selection of text options for the program offices to communicate the
application requirements to the recipients, as required by 45 CFR
75.203.
The CDCP-UPD gathers information regarding the CDCP recipients'
identified outcomes, project activities, timeline, organizational
capacity, and budget and budget justification. The CDCP-UPD ensures
sufficient information is obtained to assess risk, identify needs for
technical assistance and monitoring, and address other requirements of
Congress, ACF, the Department of Health and Human Services, the Office
of Management and Budget, and funding and statutory regulation.
Respondents: The CDCP recipients are identified annually for
funding under a Congressional Directive. In Fiscal Year 2022, there
were 39 CDCP recipients identified for ACF funding. It is estimated
that 200 CDCP recipients will be identified annually in future ACF
appropriations.
