National Institute of Food and Agriculture
Title: Children, Youth, and Families at Risk (CYFAR) Year End
Report.
OMB Control Number: 0524-0043.
Summary of Collection: The National Institute of Food and
Agriculture (NIFA) administers grants that support the Children, Youth,
and Families at Risk (CYFAR) Sustainable Communities Project (SCP).
Funding for this program is authorized under section 3(d) of the Smith-
Lever Act (7 U.S.C. 341 et seq.), CYFAR funding supports community-
based programs (also known as ``extension programs'') which serve
children, youth, and families in at-risk environments. CYFAR funds are
intended to support the development of high quality, effective programs
based on research.
The purpose of CYFAR SCP funding is to improve the quality and
quantity of comprehensive community-based programs for at-risk
children, youth, and families supported by the Cooperative Extension
System. Collaboration across disciplines, program areas, and geographic
lines, as well as a holistic approach that views the individual in the
context of the family and community, are central to Sustainable
Community Projects. CYFAR grants are awarded only to 1862, 1890, and
1994 Land Grant institutions through a competitive application process.
Awards are made annually, for five year terms. There are up to 50
grantees at any given time.
Need and Use of the Information: The purpose of the CYFAR Year End
Report is to collect the demographic and impact data from each
community site in order to evaluate the impact of the programs on
intended audiences. CYFAR grants represent a Federal financial
investment and the data collected allows NIFA to gauge the benefits
achieved from these investments. The CYFAR Year End Report tells the
story of each of the CYFAR SCP grantees and is part of the information
used to determine whether grantees have performed adequately in the
past year to receive a continuation of funding. Without the information
NIFA would not be able to verify if CYFAR programs are reaching at
risk,
