Activity; Prevention Services Data
Collection
Children’s Bureau,
Administration for Children and
Families, HHS.
ACTION: Request for public comment.
AGENCY:
The Administration for
Children and Families (ACF), Children’s
Bureau is requesting a 3-year extension
of the Prevention Services Data
Collection (OMB #0970–0529,
expiration 7/31/2022). There are no
changes requested to the form.
DATES: Comments due within 60 days of
publication. In compliance with the
SUMMARY:
requirements of the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995, ACF is soliciting
public comment on the specific aspects
of the information collection described
above.
ADDRESSES: Copies of the proposed
collection of information can be
obtained and comments may be
forwarded by emailing infocollection@
acf.hhs.gov. All requests should be
identified by the title of the information
collection.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Description: Section 471(e)(4)(E) of
the Social Security Act (the Act) (42
U.S.C. 671), as amended by Public Law
115–123, requires state and tribal child
welfare agencies to collect and report to
ACF information on children receiving
prevention and family services and
programs. Title IV–E Agencies must
report the following:
• The specific services or programs
provided.
• The total expenditures for each of
the services or programs provided.
• The duration of the services or
programs provided, and
• If the child was identified in a
prevention plan as a candidate for foster
care:
Æ The child’s placement status at the
beginning, and at the end, of the 12month period that begins on the date the
child was identified as a candidate for
foster care in a prevention plan; and
Æ Whether the child entered foster
care during the initial 12-month period
and during the subsequent 12-month
period.
To date, approximately 3⁄4 of the Title
IV–E Agencies have chosen to provide
these prevention services; however, it is
believed that this number will continue
to increase over time as states
voluntarily opt-in to the program in
order to utilize IV–E funding to provide
prevention programs and services to
children and families.
The data collected will continue to
inform federal policy decisions,
program management, and responses to
Congressional and Departmental
inquiries. Specifically, the data will
provide information about the use and
availability of prevention services to
children to prevent the need for foster
care placement. The data contains
personally identifiable information (date
of birth and race/ethnicity).
Respondents: Title IV–E Agencies.
