SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
SUMMARY:
I. Background
This is a request for the Department
of Labor, Employment and Training
Administration’s (ETA) to extend the
reporting and recordkeeping
requirements of the YouthBuild (YB)
program. This reporting structure
features standardized data collection for
program participants through quarterly

Description and Housing Census report
formats. All data collection and
reporting is done by YouthBuild
grantees.
The quarterly performance report
(ETA–9136) includes aggregate and
participant-level information on
demographic characteristics, types of
services received, placements,
outcomes, and follow-up status.
Specifically, these reports collect data
on individuals who receive education,
occupational skill training, leadership
development services, and other
services essential to preparing at-risk
youth for in-demand occupations
through YouthBuild programs. There
are no changes proposed for ETA–9136
in this information collection request
package. The Work Site Description and
Housing Census (ETA–9143) requests
information on the proposed work sites
for low-income or homeless individual
or families on which YouthBuild
participants will be trained and
participate in construction skills
activities. This form also requests
annual information on the number of
houses or apartments that were built or
renovated each year and allows ETA to
demonstrate on an annual basis the
increase in affordable housing units
supported by YouthBuild.
The accuracy, reliability, and
comparability of program reports
submitted by grantees using federal
funds are fundamental elements of good
public administration and are necessary
tools for maintaining and demonstrating
system integrity. The use of a standard
set of data elements, definitions, and
specifications at all levels of the
workforce system helps improve the
quality of performance information that
is received by ETA.
