ACF documenting their analyses and findings. This request includes
guidance for grant recipients in the form of templates. Information
will inform technical assistance (TA) to support grantees in developing

the information collection.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Description: The purpose of the current information collection
request is to provide a standardized template and accompanying
instructions to the 12 PREIS grant recipients carrying out impact
evaluations. This template will help them document their evaluation's
research questions, measures, study design, planned and actual
implementation of the program, analytic methods, and findings. A
structured final evaluation report template will facilitate grant
recipients' efficient and effective reporting of evaluation findings.
The completed reports will be reviewed by the PREP Local Evaluation
Support (LES) team to determine whether they meet ACF's standards of
rigor. The LES team will then develop recommendations for improvement
and provide TA to support report development prior to final submission
to ACF. While grantees are developing the reports, the PREP LES team
will continue to provide support primarily by continuing to offer one-
on-one TA calls with grant recipients.
The template will be used by grant recipients upon Office of
Management and Budget approval until September 2026 (or until the end
of their grant, if a no-cost extension is granted), which will allow
them to submit draft versions of their final evaluation reports before
revising and finalizing their reports by the end of their grant. Grant
recipients will complete the PREIS Final Evaluation Report Template
using the instructions which are included within each template section.
The information collected is meant to contribute to the body of
knowledge on ACF programs. It is not intended to be used as the
principal basis for a decision by a federal decision-maker and is not
expected to meet the threshold of influential or highly influential
scientific information.
Respondents: PREP PREIS Grant Recipients.
