Overview of This Information Collection:

    1. Type of Information Collection: Extension of a Currently 
Approved Collection
    2. Title of the Form/Collection: Semi-Annual Progress Report for 
the Tribal Sexual Assault Services Program
    3. Agency form number, if any, and the applicable component of the 
Department of Justice sponsoring the collection: Form Number: 1122- 
0024. U.S. Department of Justice, Office on Violence Against Women
    4. Affected public who will be asked or required to respond, as 
well as a brief abstract: The affected public includes the 
approximately 17 grantees of the Tribal Sexual Assault Services 
Program. The Sexual Assault Services Program (SASP), created by the 
Violence Against Women Act of 2005 (VAWA 2005), is the first federal 
funding stream solely dedicated to the provision of direct intervention 
and related assistance for victims of sexual assault. The SASP 
encompasses four different funding streams for States and Territories, 
Tribes, State Sexual Assault Coalitions, Tribal Coalitions, and 
culturally specific organizations. Overall, the purpose of SASP is to 
provide intervention, advocacy, accompaniment, support services, and 
related assistance for adult, youth, and child victims of sexual 
assault, family and household members of victims, and those 
collaterally affected by the sexual assault. The Tribal SASP supports 
efforts to help survivors heal from sexual assault trauma through 
direct intervention and related assistance including 24-hour sexual 
assault hotlines, crisis intervention, and medical and criminal justice 
accompaniment. The Tribal SASP will support such services through the 
establishment, maintenance, and expansion of programs and projects to 
assist those victimized by sexual assault.
    5. An estimate of the total number of respondents and the amount of 
time estimated for an average respondent to respond/reply: It is 
estimated that it will take the approximately 17 respondents (grantees 
from the Tribal Sexual Assault Services Program) 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 Tribal SASP 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 public burden (in hours) associated 
with the collection: The total annual hour burden to complete the data 
collection forms is 34 hours, that is 17 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 $1,971.00.
