    OMB No.: 0970-0382.
    Description: Section 676 of the Community Services Block Grant 
(CSBG) Act requires States, including the District of Columbia and the 
Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, and U.S. territories applying for CSBG 
funds to submit an application and plan (Model State Plan). The CSBG 
State Plan submitted by States must meet statutory requirements prior 
to being funded with CSBG funds. Applicants have the option to submit a 
detailed plan annually or biannually. Entities that submit a biannual 
plan must provide an abbreviated plan the following year if substantial 
changes to the initial plan will occur.
    In 2015, the Model State Plan was substantially revised by 
automating the form, streamlining the information, and incorporating 
accountability measures that include customer satisfaction information 
from eligible entities that receive a proportional share of CSBG 
funding through State CSBG lead agencies along with technical 
assistance, monitoring, and other programmatic support.
    In fall 2015, the Office of Community Services (OCS) used the 
American Customer Satisfaction Index (ACSI) to obtain feedback from 
CSBG eligible entities about services provided by the state CSBG Lead 
Agencies, as detailed in the new State Accountability Measures. OCS 
also obtained feedback from state CSBG Lead Agencies on services 
provided by the federal agency, as outlined in the new Federal 
Accountability Measures. Both OCS and state CSBG Directors received 
their state survey results in February 2016.
    To support ongoing implementation of state accountability measures 
related to customer satisfaction from eligible entities, OCS plans to 
survey eligible entities using the ACSI survey instrument. No changes 
are planned from the content of the 2015 survey.
    Respondents: CSBG eligible entities.
