SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520), Federal
agencies must obtain approval from the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) for each collection of information they conduct or sponsor.
``Collection of information'' is defined as and includes agency
requests or requirements that members of the public submit reports,
keep records, or provide information to a third party. The PRA requires
Federal agencies to provide a 60-day notice in the Federal Register
concerning each proposed collection of information, including each
proposed extension of an existing collection of information, before
submitting the collection to OMB for approval. To comply with this
requirement, ACL is publishing a notice of the proposed collection of
information set forth in this document. With respect to the following
collection of information, ACL invites comments on our burden estimates
or any other aspect of this collection of information, including:
(1) whether the proposed collection of information is necessary for
the proper performance of ACL's functions, including whether the
information will have practical utility;
(2) ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected;
(3) accuracy of ACL's estimate of the burden of the proposed
collection of information, including the validity of the methodology
and assumptions used to determine burden estimates;
And (4) ways to minimize the burden of the collection of
information on respondents, including through the use of automated
collection techniques when appropriate, and other forms of information
technology.
The Older American's Act requires ACL to evaluate ``demonstration
projects that support the objectives of this Act, including activities
to bring effective demonstration projects to scale with a
prioritization of projects that address the needs of underserved
populations, and promote partnerships among aging services, community-
based organizations, and Medicare and Medicaid providers, plans, and
health (including public health) systems. (Section 201 (42 U.S.C. 3011)
Sec. 127. Research and Evaluation).
To fulfill the evaluation requirements and allow for optimal
federal and state-level management of ACL's Alzheimer's Disease
Program, specific information must be collected from grantees.
The current reporting tool is set to expire 12/31/2023. The
Alzheimer's and Dementia Program (ADP) Project Officer has reviewed the
current data collection procedures to ensure the acceptability of these
items as appropriate and thorough evaluation of the program, while
minimizing burden for grantees.
The result of this process is the proposed modifications to the
existing data collection tool. ACL is aware that different grantees
have different data collection capabilities. It is understood that,
following the approval of the modified data collection tool, ACL will
work with its grantees to offer regular training to ensure minimal
burden.
To support alignment with Executive Order 13985 on Advancing Racial
Equity and Support for Underserved Communities Through the Federal
Government, Executive Order 14075 on Advancing Equality for Lesbian,
Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, and Intersex Individuals, and
Executive Order 13988 on Preventing and Combating Discrimination on the
Basis of Gender Identity and Sexual Orientation, ACL is adding three
sexual orientation and gender identity (SOGI) items to the ADP-DRT.
Understanding these disparities can and should lead to improved service
delivery for ACL's programs and populations served.
The proposed data collection tools may be found on the ACL website
for review at <a href="https://www.acl.gov/about-acl/public-input">https://www.acl.gov/about-acl/public-input</a>.

information as follows:
