DOJ seeks PRA authorization for this information collection for
three (3) years. OMB authorization for an ICR cannot be for more than

collection requirements submitted to the OMB for existing ICRs receive
a month-to-month extension while they undergo review.
Overview of This Information Collection
1. Type of Information Collection: New.
2. Title of the Form/Collection: Juvenile Facility Census Program
(JFCP).
3. Agency form number, if any, and the applicable component of the
Department of Justice 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 a brief abstract: State, local and tribal governments,
individuals or households, and Private Sector-for or not for profit

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
[[Page 65935]]
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.
5. Obligation to Respond: Voluntary.
6. Total Estimated Number of Respondents: The total estimated
respondents is 1,569 for each collection for each year.
7. Estimated Time per Respondent: 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.
8. Frequency: The CJRP and JRFC are each administered biennially in
alternating years.
9. Total Estimated Annual Time Burden: The average annual burden is
5,703 hours or 17,110 total hours for the 2025 CJRP, 2026 JRFC, and
2027 CJRP.
10. Total Estimated Annual Other Costs Burden: The estimated annual
cost for CJRP and JRFC is $633,054 each. The estimated cost for both
collections is $1,266,108 annually.
