SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Description: Under title IV-B, subparts 1 and 2, of the Social
Security Act (the Act), States, Territories, and tribes are required to
submit a CFSP. The CFSP lays the groundwork for a system of
coordinated, integrated, and culturally relevant family services for
the subsequent 5 years (45 CFR 1357.15(a)(1)). The CFSP outlines
initiatives and activities the State, Tribe or Territory will carry out
in administering programs and services to promote the safety,
permanency, and well-being of children and families, including, as
applicable, those activities conducted under the John H. Chafee Foster
Care Program for Successful Transition to Adulthood (section 477 of the
Act); and the State grant authorized by the Child Abuse Prevention and
Treatment Act (CAPTA). By June 30 of each year, States, Territories,
and Tribes are also required to submit an APSR and a financial report
called the CFS-101. The APSR is a yearly report that discusses progress
made by a State, Territory or Tribe in accomplishing the goals and
objectives cited in its CFSP (45 CFR 1357.16(a)). The APSR contains new
and updated information about service needs and organizational
capacities throughout the 5-year plan period and includes information
on the use of the Family First Transition Grants and Funding Certainty
Grants authorized by the Family First
[[Page 34505]]
Transition Act included in Public Law 116-94. The CFS-101 has three
parts. Part I is an annual budget request for the upcoming fiscal year.
Part II includes a summary of planned expenditures by program area for
the upcoming fiscal year, the estimated number of individuals or
families to be served, and the geographical service area. Part III
includes actual expenditures by program area, numbers of families and
individuals served by program area, and the geographic areas served for
the last complete fiscal year.
Respondents: States, Territories, and Tribes must complete the
CFSP, APSR, and CFS-101. Tribes and Territories are exempted from the
monthly caseworker visits reporting requirement of the CFSP/APSR. There
are approximately 180 tribal entities that currently receive IV-B
funding. There are 53 States (including Puerto Rico, the District of
Columbia, and the Virgin Islands) that must complete the CFSP, APSR,
and CFS-101. There are a total of 233 possible respondents.
