Title: National Child Abuse and
Neglect Data System.
OMB No. 0970–0424.
Description: The Administration on
Children, Youth and Families in the
U.S. Department of Health and Human
Services (HHS) established the National
Child Abuse and Neglect Data System
(NCANDS) to respond to the 1988 and
1992 amendments (Pub. L. 100–294 and
Pub. L. 102–295) to the Child Abuse
Prevention and Treatment Act (42
U.S.C. 5101 et seq.), which called for the
creation of a coordinated national data
collection and analysis program, both
universal and case-specific in scope, to
examine standardized data on false,
unfounded, or unsubstantiated reports.
In 1996, the Child Abuse Prevention
and Treatment Act was amended by
Public Law 104–235 to require that any
State receiving the Basic State Grant
work with the Secretary of the
Department of Health and Human
Services (HHS) to provide specific data
on child maltreatment, to the extent
practicable. These provisions were
retained in the 2010 reauthorization of
CAPTA (Pub. L. 113–320).
Each State to which a grant is made
under this section shall annually work
with the Secretary to provide, to the
maximum extent practicable, a report
that includes the following:
1. The number of children who were
reported to the State during the year
as victims of child abuse or neglect.

2. Of the number of children described
in paragraph (1), the number with
respect to whom such reports
were—
A. substantiated;
B. unsubstantiated; or
C. determined to be false.
3. Of the number of children described
in paragraph (2)—
A. the number that did not receive
services during the year under the
State program funded under this
section or an equivalent State
program;
B. the number that received services
during the year under the State
program funded under this section
or an equivalent State program; and
C. the number that were removed
from their families during the year
by disposition of the case.
4. The number of families that received
preventive services, including use
of differential response, from the
State during the year.
5. The number of deaths in the State
during the year resulting from child
abuse or neglect.
6. Of the number of children described
in paragraph (5), the number of
such children who were in foster
care.
7. A. The number of child protective
service personnel responsible for
the—
i. intake of reports filed in the
previous year;
ii. screening of such reports;
iii. assessment of such reports; and
iv. investigation of such reports.
B. The average caseload for the
workers described in subparagraph
(A).
8. The agency response time with
respect to each such report with
respect to initial investigation of
reports of child abuse or neglect.
E:\FR\FM\14JAN1.SGM

Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 9 / Wednesday, January 14, 2015 / Notices
9. The response time with respect to the
provision of services to families and
children where an allegation of
child abuse or neglect has been
made.

personnel responsible for intake,

qualifications, and training
requirements established by the
State for child protective service
professionals, including for entry
and advancement in the profession,
including advancement to
supervisory positions;
B. data of the education,
qualifications, and training of such
personnel;
C. demographic information of the
child protective service personnel;
and
D. information on caseload or
workload requirements for such
personnel, including requirements
for average number and maximum
number of cases per child
protective service worker and
supervisor.
11. The number of children reunited
with their families or receiving
family preservation services that,
within five years, result in
subsequent substantiated reports of
child abuse or neglect, including
the death of the child.
12. The number of children for whom
individuals were appointed by the
court to represent the best interests
of such children and the average
number of out of court contacts
between such individuals and
children.
13. The annual report containing the
summary of activities of the citizen
review panels of the State required
by subsection (c)(6).
14. The number of children under the
care of the State child protection
system who are transferred into the
custody of the State juvenile justice
system.
15. The number of children referred to
a child protective services system
under subsection (b)(2)(B)(ii).
16. The number of children determined
to be eligible for referral, and the
1917
number of children referred, under
subsection (b)(2)(B)(xxi), to agencies
providing early intervention
services under part C of the
Individuals with Disabilities
Education Act (20 U.S.C. 1431 et
seq.).
The Children’s Bureau proposes to
continue collecting the NCANDS data
through the two files of the Detailed
Case Data Component, the Child File
(the case-level component of NCANDS)
and the Agency File (additional
aggregate data, which cannot be
collected at the case level). Technical
assistance will be provided so that all
States may provide the Child File and
Agency File data to NCANDS.
There are no proposed changes to the
NCANDS data collection instruments.
New fields were implemented during
the previous OMB clearance cycle in
support of the CAPTA Reauthorization
Act of 2010 and to improve reporting on
federal performance measures.
Respondents: State governments, the
District of Columbia, and the
Commonwealth of Puerto Rico.
