Proposed Information Collection
Activity; Comment Request
Title: Job Search Assistance (JSA)
Strategies Evaluation.
OMB No.: 0970–0440.
Description: The Administration for
Children and Families (ACF) is
proposing a data collection activity as
part of the Job Search Assistance (JSA)
Strategies Evaluation. The JSA
evaluation will aim to determine which
JSA strategies are most effective in
moving TANF applicants and recipients
into work. The impact study will
randomly assign individuals to
contrasting JSA approaches and then
compare their employment and earnings
to determine their relative effectiveness.
The implementation study will describe
services participants receive under each
approach as well as provide operational
lessons gathered directly from
practitioners.
The proposed information collection
activity consists of: (1) Baseline data
collection: Collection of baseline data
from TANF recipients at the time of
enrollment in the study; (2)
Implementation study site visits:
Conducting site visits for the purpose of
documenting the program context,
program organization and staffing, the
components JSA services, and other
relevant aspects of the TANF program.
During the visits, site teams will
interview key administrators and line
staff using a semi-structured interview
guide; and (3) a JSA staff survey. This
on-line survey, administered to TANF
supervisory and line staff involved in
JSA activities, will be used as part of the
implementation study to systematically
document program operations and the
type of JSA services provided across the
study sites.
Respondents: JSA program staff and
individuals enrolled in the JSA study.

Title: Evaluation of Tribal Health
Profession Opportunity Grants
(HPOG)—One Year Extension of Data
Collection
OMB No.: 0970–0395
Description: The Administration for
Children and Families (ACF), U.S.
Department of Health and Human
Services (HHS), is proposing to continue
information collection activities as part
of the Evaluation of the Tribal Health
Profession Opportunity Grants (HPOG).
These information collection activities
were approved by OMB in October 2011
for a three-year period (OMB clearance
number 0970–0395). ACF is requesting
a one-year extension of these activities.
Through the extension of the
information collection, ACF seeks to
continue a comprehensive process and
outcome evaluation to provide
documentation and lessons learned
about diverse programmatic approaches
to health professions trainings for Tribal
populations.
The goals of the Tribal HPOG
evaluation are to: (1) Provide an indepth, systematic analysis of program
structure, implementation, and
outcomes of the sites served by the five
Tribal HPOG grantees funded in FY
2010, and (2) compare these data within
and across grantees to generate
hypotheses about the effectiveness of
different program approaches for Tribal
populations. These goals require
collecting information from Tribal
HPOG grantees and other program
stakeholders on an annual basis. The
information collection activities include
in-person and telephone interviews and
focus groups. A one-year extension of
these activities will allow the evaluation
to gather data from the grantees through
the end of their grant period. Program
operations data related to this effort will
continue to be collected through a webAnnual
number of
respondents
Instrument
based performance management system

collection activity for the evaluation of
Tribal HPOG. All instruments included
in this request have been previously
approved. The burden represents
continuing data collection into this
period.
