Agencies on Aging (AAAs). The
multiple purposes of the information
collection are to (1) determine the extent
to which AAAs are engaged in service
system integration and identify areas
where attention should be focused; (2)
to support the evaluation of Older
Americans Act, Title III–B, Supportive
Services; (3) to enhance the analysis of
data from The Third National Survey of
Title III Service Recipients and to assist
in the development of stratified sample
designs for future national surveys; (4)
to develop a very basic descriptive
report on health promotion/disease
prevention activities to complement
case studies under development; and (5)
to inform future decisions on
performance measurement initiatives
and the simplification of program
reporting requirements. AoA estimates
the burden of this collection of
information as follows: Respondents:
Area Agencies on Aging; Estimated
Number of Respondents: 657; Estimated
Burden per Response: one hour;

Title: Social Services Block Grant
Postexpenditure Report.
OMB No.: 0970–0234.
Description:
Purpose: To improve the quality of
Social Services Block Grant (SSBG)
expenditure data, the postexpenditure
reporting form and instructions need
some minor formatting revisions to
reduce confusion and reporting
inconsistencies that have resulted from
the current form. As a block grant, SSBG
provides the States with a flexible
source of funds for social service needs.
Accurate accounting of how these funds
are used and whom they serve is critical
to ensure that necessary and sufficient
funding continues to be allocated. For
this reason, the following changes are
being proposed to the current form:
1. The expenditures columns will be
reordered so that when reading left to
right, the three types of funding that
sum to total expenditures—SSBG
allocation, funds transferred into SSBG,
and expenditures of all other Federal,
State and local funds—are listed prior to
total expenditures.
2. A space will be added, and
referenced in item 29, where States can
report more detail about other services.
This added information will help to
define the specific services funded
under this service category.
3. A new column, ‘‘Adults of
Unknown Age’’ will be added. The three
age groups of adults—‘‘Adults Age
Years 59 and Younger,’’ ‘‘Adults Age 60
Years and Older,’’ and ‘‘Adults of
Unknown Age’’—should equal the total
number of adults in the ‘‘Total Adults’’
column.
4. The recipients columns will be
reordered so that when reading left to
right, the four ages of recipients—
children, adults age 59 years and
younger, adults age 60 years and older,
and adults of unknown age—are listed
prior to total adults and total recipients.
The SSBG program provides funds to
assist States in delivering social services
directed toward the needs of children
and adults in each State. Funds are
allocated to the States in proportion to
their populations. States, including the
District of Columbia, Guam, Puerto
Rico, the Virgin Islands, the Northern
Mariana Islands and American Samoa,
have substantial discretion in their use
of funds and may determine what
services will be provided, who will be
eligible and how funds are distributed
among the various services. State or
local SSBG agencies (i.e., county, city or
regional offices) may province the
services or may purchase them from
qualified agencies, organizations or
individuals. States report as recipients
of SSBG-funded services any
individuals who receive a service
funded at least partially by SSBG.
States are required to report their
annual SSBG expenditures on a
standard postexpenditure report, which
includes a yearly total of adults and
children served and annual
expenditures in each of 29 service
categories. Reporting requirements for
SSBG were originally described in the
Federal Register, Volume 58, Number
218, on Monday, November 15, 1993.
The report must be submitted either six
months after the end of the reporting
period or at the time the State submits
the preexpenditure report for the
reporting period beginning after that sixmonth period. The report must address
(1) the number of individuals (as well as
the number of children and the number
of adults) who receive services paid for
in whole or in part with Federal funds
under the SSBG; (2) the amount of SSBG
funds spent in providing each service;
(3) the total amount of Federal, State
and local funds spent in providing each
service, including SSBG funds; and (4)
the method(s) by which each service is
provided, showing separately the
services provided by public agencies
and private agencies.
Information collected on the
postexpenditure report is analyzed and
described in an annual report on SSBG
expenditures and recipients produced
by the Office of Community Services.
The information contained in this report
is used to establish how SSBG funding
is used for the provision of services in
each State to needy individuals.
Respondents: This report is
completed once annually by a
representative of the agency that
administers the SSBG at the State level
in each State, the District of Columbia
and the Territories.
