SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The ETA
seeks to collect information from
program participants and staff in the
random assignment evaluation of the
Reintegration of Ex-Offenders-Adult
Program (RExO). This evaluation will
examine the impact of comprehensive
employment-centered services on newly
released prisoners’ employment,
earnings, and recidivism. The
evaluation team will compare the
outcomes of interest for RExO service
recipients with those of eligible
individuals who are randomly assigned
to the control group and do not receive
RExO services. The ETA requests
approval to conduct two rounds of
participant surveys to learn about
participant characteristics and outcomes
of RExO, a joint initiative launched in
2005 of the DOL, the Department of
Justice (DOJ), and several other federal
agencies. The purpose of the RExO,
formerly known as the Prisoner ReEntry Initiative (PRI), is to provide
employment-centered services as well
as case management, mentoring and a
range of other supportive services to
nonviolent offenders newly released
from prison. The initiative builds on
several earlier and ongoing federal
reentry programs; including Weed and
Seed, the Serious and Violent Offender
Reentry Initiative, the Reentry
Partnership Initiative, and, most
directly, Ready4Work. RExO grantee
programs follow a three-stage reentry
framework that begins with pre-release
services, progresses through structured
reentry, and culminates in community
reintegration.
This information collection is subject
to the PRA. A Federal agency generally
cannot conduct or sponsor a collection
of information, and the public is
generally not required to respond to an
information collection, unless it is
approved by the OMB under the PRA
and displays a currently valid OMB
Control Number. In addition,
notwithstanding any other provisions of
law, no person shall generally be subject
to penalty for failing to comply with a
collection of information if the
PO 00000

collection of information does not
display a valid OMB Control Number.
See 5 CFR 1320.5(a) and 1320.6. For
additional information, see the related
notice published in the Federal Register
on March 8, 2011 (76 FR 12758).
Interested parties are encouraged to
send comments to the OMB, Office of
Information and Regulatory Affairs at
the address shown in the ADDRESSES
section within 30 days of publication of
this notice in the Federal Register. In
order to help ensure appropriate
consideration, comments should
reference OMB ICR Reference Number
201105–1205–003. The OMB is
particularly interested in comments
that:
• Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility;
• Evaluate the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
• Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and
• Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including through the
use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submission of
responses.
