information, and to allow 60 days for
public comment in response to the
notice. This notice solicits comments on
the Proposed Revision and solicits
comments on the information collection
requirements related to Alzheimer’s and
Dementia Program Data Reporting Tool
(ADP–DRT).
DATES: Comments on the collection of
information must be submitted
electronically by 11:59 p.m. (EST) or
postmarked by September 14, 2020.
ADDRESSES: Submit electronic
comments on the collection of
information to: Erin Long (Erin.Long@

the collection of information to
Administration for Community Living,
Washington, DC 20201, Attention: Erin
Long.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Erin
Long, Administration for Community
Living, Washington, DC 20201,
Erin.Long@acl.gov, 202–795–7389.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the
PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501–3520), Federal
agencies must obtain approval from the
Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) for each collection of
information they conduct or sponsor.
‘‘Collection of information’’ is defined
in 44 U.S.C. 3502(3) and 5 CFR
1320.3(c) and includes agency requests
or requirements that members of the
public submit reports, keep records, or
provide information to a third party.
Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the PRA (44
U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)) requires Federal
agencies to provide a 60-day notice in
the Federal Register concerning each
proposed collection of information,
including each proposed extension of an
existing collection of information,
before submitting the collection to OMB
for approval. To comply with this
requirement, ACL is publishing a notice
of the proposed collection of
information set forth in this document.
With respect to the following
collection of information, ACL invites
comments on our burden estimates or
any other aspect of this collection of
information, including:
(1) Whether the proposed collection
of information is necessary for the
proper performance of ACL’s functions,
PO 00000
Frm 00037

including whether the information will
have practical utility;
(2) the accuracy of ACL’s estimate of
the burden of the proposed collection of
information, including the validity of
the methodology and assumptions used
to determine burden estimates; (3) ways
to enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and
(4) ways to minimize the burden of
the collection of information on
respondents, including through the use
of automated collection techniques
when appropriate, and other forms of
information technology.
The Older American’s Act requires
ACL to evaluate ‘‘demonstration
projects that support the objectives of
this Act, including activities to bring
effective demonstration projects to scale
with a prioritization of projects that
address the needs of underserved
populations, and promote partnerships
among aging services, community-based
organizations, and Medicare and
Medicaid providers, plans, and health
(including public health) systems.
(Section 201 (42 U.S.C. 3011) Sec. 127.
Research and Evaluation).
To fulfill the evaluation requirements
and allow for optimal federal and statelevel management of ACL’s Alzheimer’s
Disease Program, specific information
must be collected from grantees.
The current reporting tool is set to
expire June 22, 2020. The Alzheimer’s
and Dementia Program (ADP) Project
Officer has reviewed the current data
collection procedures to ensure the
acceptability of these items as
appropriate and thorough evaluation of
the program, while minimizing burden
for grantees.
The result of this process is the
proposed modifications to the existing
data collection tool. ACL is aware that
different grantees have different data
collection capabilities. It is understood
that, following the approval of the
modified data collection tool, ACL will
work with its grantees to offer regular
training to ensure minimal burden.
The proposed data collection tools
may be found on the ACL website for
review at https://nadrc.acl.gov/node/

Estimated Program Burden: ACL
estimates the burden associated with
this collection of information as follows:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
1.0 Background
As announced in HHS’s 2020
Congressional Justification, HHS is
leading the development and
establishment of an interagency Council
on Economic Mobility (Council). The
Council is composed of the heads of
member agencies (HHS; the U.S.
VerDate Sep<11>2014
17:43 Jul 15, 2020
Jkt 250001
Departments of Agriculture, Education,
Labor, Housing and Urban Development
[HUD], and Treasury; the Social
Security Administration [SSA]; and the
Council of Economic Advisors [CEA]) or
their delegates. HHS will also serve as
the first Council chair.
As an administratively established
group, the Council is constrained to
activities and authorities contained in
current law. As an interagency group,
the Council is focusing on areas that are
crosscutting, issues that cannot be
accomplished by a single agency on its
own, seeking to create an accountable
and effective structure for interagency
collaboration and using federal
authorities to promote family-sustaining
careers and economic mobility for lowincome Americans. The Council aims to
promote economic recovery and build
resilience in the face of the COVID–19
pandemic, learning from the response to
build a more integrated and effective
long-term federal strategy to promote
economic mobility and help individuals
sustain their economic success.
Many federal workforce and work
support programs and services are
overseen by the Council member
agencies, such as the Child Care and
Development Fund, Medicaid,
Supplemental Nutrition Assistance
Program Employment and Training, the
Family Self-Sufficiency program, the
Jobs Plus program, Vocational
Rehabilitation programs, and Workforce
Innovation and Opportunity Act
programs, among others. For examples
of more potential programs, go to
https://tinyurl.com/
CouncilonEconomicMobility.
2.0 Request for Information
Through this RFI, HHS and its
interagency partners (Agriculture,
Education, Labor, HUD, Treasury, SSA,
CEA, the Office of Management and
Budget, and the Domestic Policy
Council) seek to gather feedback from
our stakeholders—state and local
government agencies, local program
operators, and the people that we serve.
The information gathered in response to
the RFI will be used to better inform the
Council’s priorities, working group
activities, stakeholder engagement, and
federal programs. Council members and
the entire U.S. government are
PO 00000
Frm 00038
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
committed to a healthy and resilient
America. COVID–19 has touched
individuals and families in every corner
of America—with communities across
the country experiencing the pandemic
in different ways. Feedback on the
specific economic mobility, recovery,
and resilience challenges in local
communities in the short, medium, and
long term is welcome.
3.0
Key Questions
3.1 What priorities would you
identify for the new federal Council on
Economic Mobility?
3.2 As a state, community, or
provider, what are your suggestions for
how to make federal workforce and
work support programs work better
together in your state or community at
this time and in the long-term? Please
share any examples of effective federal
program coordination.
3.3 As a state, community, or
provider, what do you think are the
immediate barriers preventing federal
workforce and work support programs
from collaborating in your state or
community? What are the long-term
barriers?
3.4 How can federal agencies
collaborate and coordinate to help
program operators foster participant
economic mobility, recovery, and
resilience, using administrative
authorities such as joint
communications, technical assistance,
and program guidance? What are
specific examples based on your
experience?
3.5 How are program cliff effects and
high effective marginal tax rates
impacting the economic mobility of
individuals and families in your
community? What methods are being
used to address these challenges?
NOTE: An effective marginal tax rate
is the proportion of new earnings owed
in taxes or needed to offset reductions
in program benefits and quantifies the
share of new earnings not available to
families. For example, if a family earns
an additional $400 during the year
which prompts a $200 reduction in
program benefits, this is an effective
marginal tax rate of 50 percent on their
new earnings. A program ‘‘cliff effect’’
refers to a marginal tax rate of 100
percent or more. This results from a loss
