    Abstract: The Grants to Tribal Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault 
Coalitions Program supports the development and operation of nonprofit, 
nongovernmental tribal domestic violence and sexual assault coalitions. 
Tribal coalitions provide education, support, and technical assistance 
to member Indian service providers and tribes to enhance their response 
to victims of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, and 
stalking. 34 U.S.C. 10441(d) and 12511(d).

Overview of This Information Collection

    1. Type of Information Collection: Extension of a previously 
approved collection.
    2. The Title of the Form/Collection: Semi-Annual Progress Report 
for Grantees from the Rural Domestic Violence, Dating Violence, Sexual 
Assault, Stalking, and Child Abuse Enforcement Assistance Program.
    3. The agency form number, if any, and the applicable component of 
the Department sponsoring the collection: 1122-0013.
    4. Affected public who will be asked or required to respond, as 
well as the obligation to respond: The affected public includes the 
approximately 165 grantees of the Rural Program. The primary purpose of 
the Rural Program is to enhance the safety of victims of domestic 
violence, dating violence, sexual assault, stalking, and child 
victimization by supporting projects uniquely designed to address and 
prevent these crimes in rural jurisdictions. Grantees include States, 
Indian tribes, local governments, and nonprofit, public or private 
entities, including tribal nonprofit organizations, to carry out 
programs serving rural areas or rural communities. The obligation to 
respond is required to obtain/retain a benefit.
    5. An estimate of the total number of respondents and the amount of 
time estimated for an average respondent to respond: It is estimated 
that it will take the approximately 165 respondents (Rural Program 
grantees) approximately one hour to complete a semi-annual progress 
report. The semi-annual progress report is divided into sections that 
pertain to the different types of activities in which grantees may 
engage. A Rural Program grantee will only be required to complete the 
sections of the form that pertain to its own specific activities.
    6. An estimate of the total annual burden (in hours) associated 
with the collection: The total annual hour burden to complete the data 
collection forms is 330 hours, that is 165 grantees completing a form 
twice a year with an estimated completion time for the form being one 
hour.
    7. An estimate of the total annual cost burden associated with the 
collection, if applicable: The annualized costs to the Federal 
Government resulting from the OVW staff review of the progress reports 
submitted by grantees are estimated to be $18,480.
