OMB No.: 0980–0141. Description: A title IV–E plan is required by section 471 part IV–E of the Social Security Act (the Act) for each public child welfare agency requesting Federal funding for foster care, adoption assistance and guardianship assistance under the Act. The title IV–E plan provides assurances the programs will be administered in conformity with the specific requirements stipulated in title IV–E. The plan must include all applicable State statutory, regulatory, or policy references and citations for each requirement as well as supporting documentation. A title IV–E agency may use the pre-print format prepared by the Children’s Bureau of the Administration for Children and Families or a different format, on the condition that the format used includes all of the title IV–E State plan requirements of the law. Public Law 110–351, the Fostering Connections to Success and Increasing Adoptions Act of 2008, created a new title IV–E plan option to provide a Guardianship Assistance Program for relatives of children in foster care (section 471(a)(28) of the Act). The Guardianship Assistance program was made effective for States upon enactment of Public Law 110–351 (October 7, 2008). Effective October 1, 2009, Public Law 110–351 will allow Tribes, Tribal organizations and Tribal consortia to directly operate title IV–E programs for foster care maintenance payments, adoption assistance and kinship guardianship assistance. The law also made a number of other changes to title IV–E plan requirements and eligibility criteria. The law’s provisions expanding the scope of the title IV–E program necessitates a revision of the preprint. Respondents: State and Territorial Agencies (State Agencies) administering or supervising the administration of the title IV–E programs and Federallyrecognized Tribes, Tribal organizations and Tribal consortia administering title IV–E programs.

Currently, little is known about parental knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors related to heart health in children. Serving as a baseline for evaluation of NHLBI’s outreach activities related to the campaign, this study seeks to learn the following: (a) Parents’ awareness of cardiovascular disease risk factors in children and knowledge of what to do for risk reduction, (b) parents’ level of efficacy toward taking action to promote cardiovascular health and reduce risk factors, and (c) parents’ behaviors related to cardiovascular health. The findings will provide valuable information that will enable NHLBI to identify the gaps in knowledge and awareness and target specific information in communications with parents. NHLBI will also be able to determine parents’ efficacy related to the actions needed to promote their E:\FR\FM\29JYN1.SGM 29JYN1
