This ICR
seeks PRA authority for the Evaluation
of Strategies Used in the TechHire and
Strengthening Working Families
Initiative Grant Programs information
collection that will support an
evaluation of both the implementation
and impact of the programs. The
purpose of the evaluation is to identify
whether the grants help low-wage
workers obtain employment in and
advance in H–1B industries and
occupations and, if so, which strategies
are most helpful. Consolidated
Appropriations Act of 2016 section 107
authorizes this information collection.
See Public Law 114–113.
This proposed 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
