Title: AFI Financial Education
Practices and Cost Study.
OMB No.: New collection.
Description: The Office of Community
Services (OCS) within the
Administration for Children and
Families is conducting a descriptive
study of Financial Education Practices
among Assets for Independence (AFI)
grantees to increase its knowledge about
current practices in financial education
for AFI participants and the costs
involved to provide the financial
education.
The Assets for Independence program
is a national demonstration through
which OCS awards grants to
community-based nonprofit
organizations, and State, local, and
tribal government agencies nationwide.
The AFI program is authorized in
Section 402 of the Community
Opportunities, Accountability, and
Training and Educational Services Act
of 1998 (Title IV of Pub. L. 105–285).

Grantees implement five year projects
that empower low-income families and
individuals to save earned income and
purchase an economic asset as a means
for becoming economically selfsufficient. Grantees provide eligible
low-income individuals and families
access to matched savings accounts,
known as individual development
accounts (IDAs). In addition, grantees
provide asset-building services to
program participants, such as financial
literacy education, and specialized
asset-specific training regarding asset
purchase and ownership.
This data collection effort will
provide OCS with a better
understanding of the future needs of
AFI grantees in financial education and
help OCS to build strategies to
strengthen the quality of the financial
education provided to AFI participants.
The data collection will be collected
once through two instruments: The
Survey of Financial Education Practices
of AFI Grantees and the AFI Financial
Education Cost Data Form.
The Survey of Financial Education
Practices of AFI Grantees will be a Webbased survey consisting mainly of
multiple choice questions. All current
AFI grantees (approximately 300
grantees) will be asked to complete the
survey. The AFI Financial Education
Cost Data Form is a supplement to the
grantee practices survey. A smaller
sample of grantees (approximately 35
grantees) representing a variety of
organizational types will be randomly
selected to complete this supplemental
survey on the costs of providing
financial education. The Cost Data Form
will be sent to grantees to complete and
technical assistance will be provided to
grantees to help them complete the
form.
Specific areas to be covered in this
study include: Topics covered by
financial education; formats used in
delivering financial education;
assessment tools that are used to
determine participant needs and
effectiveness of training efforts;
challenges encountered in providing
financial education; training materials
used; costs and sources of funding for
training; strategies for tracking
participant progress in developing
financial skills; and participant
outcomes related to financial education.
Respondents: 292 AFI grantee
agencies, their partners or sub-grantees,
72 AFI grantee agencies, their partners
or sub-grantees’ financial personnel.
