Title: Plan for Foster Care and

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. Section 479B of the Act
provides for an Indian tribe, tribal
organization or tribal consortium (Tribe)
to operate a title IV–E program in the
same manner as a State with minimal
exceptions. The Tribe must have an
approved title IV–E Plan. 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 or Tribal 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 plan
requirements of the law.
Respondents: Title IV–E agencies
administering or supervising the
administration of the title IV–E
programs.

Title: State Court Improvement
Program.
OMB No.: New Collection.
Description: The Court Improvement
Program (CIP) is composed of three

grants, the basic, data, and training
grants, governed by two separate
Program Instructions (PIs). The training
and data grants are governed by the
‘‘new grant’’ PI and the basic grant is
governed by the ‘‘basic grant’’ PI.
Current PIs require separate
applications and program assessment
reports for each grant. Every State
applies for at least two of the grants
annually and most States apply for all
three. As many of the application
requirements are the same for all three
grants, this results in duplicative work
and high degrees of repetition for State
courts applying for more than one CIP
grant.
The purpose of this Program
Instruction is to streamline and simplify
the application and reporting processes
by consolidating the PIs into one single
PI and requiring one single,
consolidated application (App) package
and program assessment report (PAR)
per State court annually. These
revisions will satisfy statutory
programmatic requirements and reduce
both the number of required responses
and associated total burden hours for
State courts.
This new PI also describes
programmatic and fiscal provisions and
