identifying data about individuals who
act as MLOs may be treated as
confidential pursuant to exemption 6 of
the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA),
which protects from disclosure
information that ‘‘would constitute a
clearly unwarranted invasion of
personal privacy.’’ 6
With respect to the information
collection requirements imposed on
banking organizations, because banking
organizations are required to retain their
own records and make certain
disclosures to customers, the FOIA
would only be implicated if the Board’s
examiners obtained a copy of these
records as part of the examination or
supervision of a financial institution.
Records obtained in this manner may be
exempt from disclosure under FOIA
exemption 8, regarding examinationrelated materials.7

Assistant Secretary of the Board.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Description: The Maternal, Infant, and
Early Childhood Home Visiting Program
(MIECHV) authorizes the Secretary of
HHS (in Section 511(h)(2)(A)) to award
grants to Indian tribes (or a consortium
of Indian tribes), tribal organizations, or
urban Indian organizations to conduct
an early childhood home visiting
program. The legislation set aside 3
percent of the total MIECHV program
appropriation for grants to tribal
entities. Tribal MIECHV grants, to the
greatest extent practicable, are to be
consistent with the requirements of the
MIECHV grants to states and
jurisdictions and include conducting a
needs assessment and establishing
quantifiable, measurable benchmarks.
The ACF, Office of Child Care, in
collaboration with the Health Resources
and Services Administration, Maternal
and Child Health Bureau, awards grants
for the Tribal MIECHV Program. The
Tribal MIECHV grant awards support 5year cooperative agreements to conduct
community needs assessments; plan for
and implement high-quality, culturally
relevant, evidence-based home visiting
programs in at-risk tribal communities;
ADDRESSES:
collect and report on performance
measures; and participate in research
and evaluation activities to build the
knowledge base on home visiting among
Native populations.
Specifically, the MIECHV legislation
requires that State and Tribal MIECHV
grantees collect performance data to
measure improvements for eligible
families in six specified areas (referred
to as ‘‘benchmark areas’’) that
encompass the major goals for the
program. These include:
1. Improved maternal and newborn
health;
2. Prevention of child injuries, child
abuse, neglect, or maltreatment, and
reduction in emergency department
visits;
3. Improvement in school readiness
and achievement;
4. Reduction in crime or domestic
violence;
5. Improvement in family economic
self-sufficiency; and
6. Improvement in the coordination
and referrals for other community
resources and supports.
Tribal MIECHV grantees are required
to propose a plan for meeting the
benchmark requirements specified in
the legislation and must report on
improvement on constructs under each
benchmark area. Tribal Home Visiting
(HV) Form 2 will provide a template for
Tribal MIECHV grantees to report data
on their progress in improving
performance under the six benchmark
areas, as stipulated in the legislation.
ACF will continue to use Tribal HV
Form 2 to:
• Track and improve the quality of
benchmark measures data submitted by
the Tribal grantees;
• Improve program monitoring and
oversight;
• Improve rigorous data analyses that
help to assess the effectiveness of the
programs and enable ACF to better
monitor projects; and
• Ensure adequate and timely
reporting of program data to relevant
federal agencies and stakeholders
including Congress and members of the
public.
Respondents: Tribal MIECHV Program
Grantees.

To systematically document the
approaches and strategies used by the
first two cohorts of CWCC grantees
(FY18 and FY19 awardees), the
evaluation team will conduct initial and
follow-up interviews with: (1) Project
Directors from Lead Grantee
organizations and Leaders from partner
organizations, and (2) staff from the lead
and partner organizations. These
interviews will take place during site
visits. Each grantee will participate in
four site visits.
• Survey Invitee Template: The
evaluation team will ask the Project
Director of each CWCC grant to fill out
a Survey Invitee Template to gather
contact information for leaders and staff
from lead and partner organizations
who the evaluation team will invite to
complete the Collaboration Survey (see
below).
• Collaboration Survey: This
electronic survey will document
perceptions that leaders and staff from
the CWCC lead and partner
organizations have regarding their
organizational/group processes,
implementation activities, and progress
towards goals. This survey will be
administered to staff at all grantee and
partner organizations on an annual basis
during each cohort’s grant period.
• Site Visit Planning Template: Each
Project Director (or their designee) will
complete a Site Visit Planning Template
to schedule site visit activities prior to
each annual site visit.
Respondents: Leadership and staff
from CWCC lead (grantee) organizations
and from partner organizations.
