Abstract: This request for clearance of the Juvenile Facility
Census Program (JFCP) will combine two previously, separately cleared
data collections: the Census of Juveniles in Residential Placement (OMB
# 1121-0218) and the Juvenile Residential Facility Census (OMB # 1121-
0219). The Census of Juveniles in Residential Placement (CJRP), which
is administered biennially, collects information from all secure and
nonsecure residential placement facilities that house persons younger
than age 21 who are held in a residential setting as a result of some
contact with the juvenile justice system for an offense. This
encompasses both status offenses and delinquency offenses, and includes
youth who are either temporarily detained by the court or committed
after adjudication for an offense. The CJRP collects information on the
characteristics of the youth held for an offense, including offense and
demographics, and information on their placement, including
adjudication status and length of stay. The Juvenile Residential
Facility Census (JRFC), which is administered biennially in the years
the CJRP is not administered, collects information about how juvenile
facilities operate, the services they provide, and staff training from
all secure and nonsecure residential placement facilities that house
persons younger than 21 who are held for an offense. The information
gathered in these national collections will be used in published
reports and statistics. The reports will be made available to the U.S.
Congress, Executive Office of the President, practitioners,
researchers, students, the media, others interested in juvenile
residential facilities, and the general public via the OJP agency
websites. The two data collections are being combined into a single
clearance packet because they are closely related and designed to be
complementary. They are drawn from the same frame, are administered to
the same respondents with identical eligibility criteria, have the same
reference day, and use the same mode of collection. The collection
administrations are deliberately sequenced and scheduled for
alternating years because of the complementary nature of the
information and overlap in respondents. Additionally, each collections'
imputation procedures rely upon information from the other collection,
and for some longitudinal analyses, data from both collections are
combined to produce published statistics.
Overview of this information collection:
1. Type of Information Collection: New.
2. The Title of the Form/Collection: Juvenile Facility Census
Program (JFCP).
3. The agency form number, if any, and the applicable component of
the Department sponsoring the collection: The form numbers are CJ-14
(CJRP) and CJ-15 (JRFC). The applicable components within the
Department of Justice are the National Institute of Justice and the
Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention, in the Office of
Justice Programs.
4. Affected public who will be asked or required to respond, as
well as the obligation to respond: State, local and tribal governments,
individuals or households, and Private Sector-for or not for profit
institutions. The obligation to respond is voluntary.
5. An estimate of the total number of respondents and the amount of
time estimated for an average respondent to respond: The total
estimated respondents is 1,711 for each collection for each year.
It takes an average of 4 hours to complete the CJRP. The total
burden for the CJRP is 6,844 hours. It takes an average of 2 hours to
complete the JRFC. The total burden for the JRFC is 3,422 hours.
6. An estimate of the total annual burden (in hours) associated
with the collection: The average annual burden is 5,703 hours or 17,110
total hours for the 2025 CJRP, 2026 JRFC, and 2027 CJRP.
7. An estimate of the total annual cost burden associated with the
collection, if applicable: The estimated annual cost for CJRP and JRFC
is $633,054 each. The estimated cost for both collections is $1,266,108
annually.
