Submission for OMB Review; ORR
Services for Survivors of Torture
Program Data Points and Performance
Progress Reports (New Collection)
Office of Refugee Resettlement,
Administration for Children and
Families, HHS.
ACTION: Request for public comment.
AGENCY:
The Administration for
Children and Families’ (ACF) Office of
Refugee Resettlement (ORR) intends to
collect demographic, programmatic, and
outcome data on Services for Survivors
of Torture (SOT) grant recipients and
the clients they serve. This data
collection will allow ORR to learn more
about the populations served; the types
and effectiveness of services provided;
methods, challenges, and facilitators of
implementing services; and grant
recipients’ progress towards
programmatic goals. ORR will collect
these data on the new cohort of Services
for SOT grant recipients; ORR collected
information from the previous grantee
cohort under the Generic Performance
Progress Report (OMB #0970–0490).
ORR has made changes to the data
collection instruments for use in the
new cohort.
DATES: Comments due within 30 days of
publication. OMB is required to make a
decision concerning the collection of
information between 30 and 60 days
after publication of this document in the
Federal Register. Therefore, a comment
SUMMARY:
is best assured of having its full effect
if OMB receives it within 30 days of
publication.
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 infocollection@
acf.hhs.gov. Identify all emailed
requests by the title of the information
collection.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Description: ORR proposes to use the
Program Data Points Form (PDPs) and
Performance Progress Reports (PPRs) to
collect data on the Services for SOT
grant recipients and their clients. In
2019, ORR began requiring the Services
for SOT grant recipients to collect and
report their PDPs through the ORR
Refugee Arrivals Data System (RADS),
an information technology platform
used for enhanced data collection and
record keeping. The new cohort of
Services for SOT grant recipients, who
will receive 5-year awards in September
2022, will also provide these data points
to ORR using RADS. Grant recipients
will provide aggregated data on new and
continuing clients annually, including
demographic information,
characteristics related to experiences of
torture, services received, and wellbeing across six outcome domains.
Grant recipients will also provide
information about community
attendance at trainings and pro-bono
services donated to the program. In the
PPRs, grant recipients will provide
primarily narrative information on
grant-funded activities and progress
towards grant goals biannually.
Information collected will be used in
aggregate by ORR to provide reports to
stakeholders, including a required
report to Congress, and responses to
funding requests.
Respondents: Services for SOT grant
programs (this may include non-profit
social service, health, and higher
education organizations, states,
municipalities, and for-profit
organizations).

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Pamela O’Brien, 202–795–7417 or
pamela.obrien@acl.hhs.gov.
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.
The PRA 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 collection of
information described below, 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,
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.
Section 104 (a) (42 U.S.C. 15004) of
the Developmental Disabilities
Assistance and Bill of Rights Act of
2000 (DD Act) directs the Secretary of
Health and Human Services to develop

and implement a system of program
accountability to monitor the grantees
funded under the DD Act, including the
UCEDDs. Section 154 (e) (42 U.S.C.
15064) of the DD Act includes
requirements for the UCEDD Annual
Report. The UCEDD Annual Report
should contain information on progress
made in achieving the projected goals of
the Center for the previous year,
including:
(1) The extent of goal achievement;
(2) A description of the strategies that
contributed to achieving the goals;
(3) The extent goals were not
achieved, a description of factors that
impeded the achievement;
(4) An accounting of the manner in
which funds paid to the Center . . . for
a fiscal year were expended;
(5) Information on proposed revisions
to the goals; and
(6) A description of successful efforts
to leverage funds, other than funds
made available under the DD Act.
The DD Act also states grantees must
report on consumer satisfaction with:
(1) The advocacy, capacity building,
and systemic change activities initiated
by the UCEDD;
(2) The extent to which the UCEDD’s
advocacy, capacity building, and
systemic change activities provided
results through improvements; and
(3) The extent to which collaboration
was achieved in the areas of advocacy,
capacity building, and systemic change.
In addition to collecting the
information required in the DD Act, this
IC will also include elements needed to
account for the activities supported by
funding from the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC) to
support access to vaccines for people
with disabilities as well as the funds
awarded under the American Rescue
Plan Act to increase the Public Health
Workforce (PHWF).
Finally, to ensure the UCEDD PPR is
consistent with the Executive order on
Advancing Racial Equity and Support
for Underserved Communities Through
the Federal Government and the
Executive order on Advancing Equality
for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender,
Queer, and Intersex Individuals, ACL
intends to determine whether the sexual
orientation and gender identity (SOGI)
data elements need to be adapted to
ensure accessibility of the questions for
