SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Description: The RHY Program has a requirement to collect 
information from all youth who receive shelter and supportive services 
with RHY funding. In April 2015, the Administration on Children, Youth 
and Families, through a formal Memorandum of Understanding, integrated 
the RHY data collection with the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban 
Development's (HUD) HMIS and HUD's data standards along with other 
federal partners. HUD has OMB approval for HUD's data standards and ACF 
has approval under a separate OMB number for the RHY data elements. The 
data collection effort includes universal data elements that are 
collected by all federal partners and RHY program specific elements, 
which are tailored to the RHY Program using HUD's HMIS.
    Respondents: Youth who receive emergency and longer-term shelter 
and supportive services under RHY funding.
