Announcement of Intent To Issue an
OPDIV-Initiated Supplement Under the
Standing Announcement for
Residential (Shelter) Services for
Unaccompanied Children, HHS–2017–
ACF–ORR–ZU–1132
Unaccompanied Alien
Children’s (UAC) Program, Office of
Refugee Resettlement (ORR),
Administration for Children and
Families (ACF), U.S Department of
Health and Human Services (HHS).
ACTION: Notice of intent to issue an
OPDIV-Initiated Supplement.
AGENCY:
Administration for Children
and Families, Office of Refugee
Resettlement, announces the intent to
issue an OPDIV-Initiated Supplement in
multiple installments to BCFS Health
and Human Services, San Antonio, TX.
The aggregate total of the multiple
installments will not exceed
$367,860,381. The first two installments
will be issued prior to September 30,
2018. The remaining installments will
be issued after September 30, 2018 on
to be determined dates. ORR has been
identifying additional capacity to
provide shelter for potential increases in
apprehensions of Unaccompanied
Children at the U.S. Southern Border.
Planning for increased shelter capacity
is a prudent step to ensure that ORR is
able to meet its responsibility, by law,
to provide shelter for Unaccompanied
Alien Children referred to its care by the
Department of Homeland Security
(DHS). To ensure sufficient capacity to
provide shelter to unaccompanied
children referred to HHS, BCFS
proposed to provide ORR with 3,800
beds in an expedited manner.
DATES: Supplemental award funds will
support activities through December 31,
2018.

information received from interagency
partners, to inform any future decisions
or actions.

ORR has specific requirements for the
provision of services. Award recipients
must have the infrastructure, licensing,
experience, and appropriate level of
trained staff to meet those requirements.
The expansion of the existing program
and its services through this
supplemental award is a key strategy for
ORR to be prepared to meet its
responsibility to provide shelter for
Unaccompanied Children referred to its
care by DHS and so that the U.S. Border
Patrol can continue its vital national
security mission to prevent illegal
migration, trafficking, and protect the
borders of the United States.
Statutory Authority: This program is
authorized by—
(A) Section 462 of the Homeland
Security Act of 2002, which in March
2003, transferred responsibility for the
care and custody of Unaccompanied
Alien Children from the Commissioner
of the former Immigration and
Naturalization Service (INS) to the
Director of ORR of the Department of
Health and Human Services (HHS).
(B) The Flores Settlement Agreement,
Case No. CV85–4544RJK (C.D. Cal.
1996), as well as the William
Wilberforce Trafficking Victims
Protection Reauthorization Act of 2008
(Pub. L. 110–457), which authorizes
post release services under certain
conditions to eligible children. All
programs must comply with the Flores
Settlement Agreement, Case No. CV85–
4544–RJK (C.D. Cal. 1996), pertinent
regulations and ORR policies and
procedures.

ACTION: Request for public comment.
AGENCY:
Title: Evaluation of Employment
Coaching for TANF and Related
Populations—Second Follow-Up Survey
(OMB #0970–0506).
SUMMARY: The Administration for
Children and Families (ACF) is
proposing an additional data collection
activity as part of the Evaluation of
PO 00000
Frm 00053
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
Employment Coaching for TANF and
Related Populations. The Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) Office
of Information and Regulatory Affairs
approved this information collection in
March 2018 (0970–0506). ACF is
proposing a second follow-up survey
conducted as part of the evaluation.
This study will provide an
opportunity to learn more about the
potential of coaching to help clients
achieve self-sufficiency and other
desired employment-related outcomes.
It will take place over five years in the
following employment programs:
MyGoals for Employment Success in
Baltimore, MyGoals for Employment
Success in Houston, Family
Development and Self-Sufficiency
program in Iowa, LIFT in New York
City, Chicago, and Los Angeles; Work
Success in Utah; and Goal4 It! in
Jefferson County, Colorado. Together,
these programs will include Temporary
Assistance for Needy Families (TANF)
agencies and other public or private
employment programs that serve lowincome individuals. Each site will have
a robust coaching component and the
capacity to conduct a rigorous impact
evaluation. This study will provide
information on whether coaching helps
people obtain and retain jobs, advance
in their careers, move toward selfsufficiency, and improve their overall
well-being. To meet these objectives,
this study includes an impact and
implementation study, as approved by
OMB.
This submission builds on the
existing impact study, which randomly
assigned participants to either a
‘‘program group,’’ who were paired with
a coach, or to a ‘‘control group,’’ who
were not paired with a coach. The
effectiveness of the coaching will be
determined by differences between
members of the program and control
groups in outcomes such as obtaining
and retaining employment, earnings,
measures of self-sufficiency, and
measures of self-regulation.
The proposed information collection
activity is a second follow-up survey,
which will be available to participants
approximately 21 months after random
assignment. The second follow-up
survey will provide rigorous evidence
on whether the coaching interventions
are effective, for whom, and under what
circumstances.
Respondents: Individuals enrolled in
the Evaluation of Employment Coaching
for TANF and Related Populations. All
participants will be able to opt out of
participating in the data collection
activities.
