Submission for OMB Review; The
Study of Disability Services
Coordinators and Inclusion in Head
Start (New Collection)
Office of Planning, Research,
and Evaluation, Administration for
Children and Families, HHS.
ACTION: Request for public comment.
AGENCY:
This is a primary data
collection request for the Study of
Disability Services Coordinators and
Inclusion in Head Start (New
Collection). The study aims to provide
a nationally representative picture of the
Early Head Start (EHS) and Head Start
(HS) Disability Services Coordinator
(DSC) workforce, as well as services
provided to children with disabilities
and their families within these programs
and how EHS/HS collaborates with
services in the community, including
health providers, Local Education
Agencies, and Part C. This is the first
study of the HS/EHS DSC workforce and
will contain three Phases of data
collection using surveys and qualitative
interviews.
DATES: Comments due within 30 days of
publication. OMB must make a decision
about the collection of information
between 30 and 60 days after
publication of this document in the
Federal Register. Therefore, a comment
is best assured of having its full effect
if OMB receives it within 30 days of
publication.
SUMMARY:
Written comments and
recommendations for the proposed
information collection should be sent
within 30 days of publication of this
notice to www.reginfo.gov/public/do/
PRAMain. Find this particular
information collection by selecting
‘‘Currently under 30-day Review—Open
for Public Comments’’ or by using the
search function. You can also obtain
copies of the proposed collection of
information by emailing
OPREinfocollection@acf.hhs.gov. All
emailed requests should be identified by
the title of the information collection.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Description: The Study of DSCs and
Inclusion in Head Start will support
ACF in better understanding the
implementation of EHS/HS policies and

practices for delivering disability
services. This study aims to present a
nationally representative description of
the characteristics and work of DSCs
and related staff in EHS/HS programs
and how EHS/HS serves children with
disabilities and their families. The study
will not allow for statistical
generalization beyond EHS/HS and their
service populations.
The study will report on inclusive
practices, staffing, professional
development, and collaboration with
local education agencies, early
intervention programs, health providers,
and other community stakeholders who
serve young children with disabilities
and their families.
ACF aims to address the research
questions through a national survey of
EHS/HS program directors (PhasePhase
1), a survey with DSCs identified by the
directors (Phase 2), and a one-time
qualitative interview with a subset of
DSCs who respond to the web-based
survey (Phase 3). There are no data
regarding the population of the DSC
workforce and subgroups, preventing
the team from setting a frame for
selecting a nationally representative
sample. Given the lack of administrative
data and contact information about
DSCs, it is essential that a national
survey of EHS/HS directors (Phase 1) be
conducted to identify DSC respondents.
A purposive sample of DSCs who
completed the Phase 2 survey will be
asked to participate in a semistructured, qualitative interview.
Data collection activities will occur
over 15 months; the team anticipates
January 2022 through March 2023. The
proposed data collection will begin
shortly after OMB approval. The three
Phases of data collection will occur
concurrently—the Phase 1 survey will
be fielded for approximately 8 months;
the Phase 2 survey will be fielded for
approximately 12 months; and the
Phase 3 interviews will be conducted
over 4 months.
Respondents: Head Start Directors,
Head Start Disability Service
Coordinators.
Annual Burden Estimates
Values in the burden table have been
updated since the 60 day Federal
Register Notice regarding this study.
Accuracy of the table values has been
improved by review of response rates
from studies with similar designs. In
addition, the table has been informed by
consultation with community advisors.

Submission for OMB Review; Child
and Family Services Reviews (OMB
#0970–0214)
Children’s Bureau,
Administration on Children, Youth and
Families, Administration for Children
and Families, HHS.
ACTION: Request for public comment.
AGENCY:
The Administration for
Children and Families (ACF) is
requesting reinstatement of the activities
associated with the Child and Family
Services Reviews (CFSR) collection
(OMB #0970–0214). Revisions have
been made to the forms to clarify
instructions and incorporate new
guidance. The activities associated with
the Title IV–E Foster Care Eligibility
SUMMARY:
Reviews and Anti-Discrimination
Enforcement Corrective Action Plans
were removed from this collection.
DATES: Comments due within 30 days of
publication. OMB must make a decision
about the collection of information
between 30 and 60 days after
publication of this document in the
Federal Register. Therefore, a comment
is best assured of having its full effect
if OMB receives it within 30 days of
publication.
ADDRESSES: Written comments and
recommendations for the proposed
information collection should be sent
within 30 days of publication of this
notice to www.reginfo.gov/public/do/
PRAMain. Find this particular
information collection by selecting
‘‘Currently under 30-day Review—Open
for Public Comments’’ or by using the
search function.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Description: The following activities
are associated with the CFSR collection:
CFSR Statewide Assessment, CFSR Onsite Review, and the CFSR Program
Improvement Plan. The collection of
information for review of state child and
family services programs (45 CFR
1355.33(b), 1355.33(c) and 1355.35(a)) is
to determine whether such programs are
in substantial conformity with state plan
requirements under Titles IV–B and IV–
E of the Social Security Act (the Act)
and is authorized by section 1123(a) [42
U.S.C. 1320a–2a] of the Act. The CFSR
looks at the outcomes related to safety,
permanency, and well-being of children
served by the child welfare system and
at seven systemic factors that support
the outcomes. The information
collection is needed to monitor state
plan requirements under titles IV–B and
IV–E of the Act and is required by
federal statute. The resultant
information will allow ACF to
determine if states are in compliance
with state plan requirements and are
achieving desired outcomes for children
and families. If necessary, ACF will
require states revise applicable statutes,
rules, policies and procedures, and
provide proper training to staff, through
the development and implementation of
program improvement plans. The CFSR
reviews not only address conformity
with state plan requirements but also
assist states in enhancing the capacities
to serve children and families. In
computing the number of burden hours
for this information collection, ACF
based the annual burden estimates on
ACF’s and states’ experiences in
conducting reviews and developing
program improvement plans.
Respondents: State Title IV–E
Agencies.
