Maternal, Infant, and Early Childhood Home Visiting Program (Tribal 
MIECHV) Guidance for Submitting Reports to the Secretary (Office of 
Management and Budget (OMB) #0970-0409; expiration September 30, 2024). 
Guidance under this OMB number includes that for an annual report and 
that for a final report. This request is for review of the final report 
guidance. There are no changes proposed to the guidance for the annual 
report.

DATES: Comments due within 60 days of publication. In compliance with 
the requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) of 1995, ACF is 
soliciting public comment on the specific aspects of the information 
collection described above.

ADDRESSES: You can obtain copies of the proposed collection of 
information and submit comments by emailing [email protected]. 
Identify all requests by the title of the information collection.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Description: Section 511(e)(8)(A) of Title V of the Social Security 
Act requires that grantees under the MIECHV program for states and 
jurisdictions submit an annual and a final report to the Secretary of 
Health and Human Services regarding the program and activities carried 
out under the program, including such data and information as the 
Secretary shall require. Section 511(h)(2)(A) further states that the 
requirements for the MIECHV grants to tribes, tribal organizations, and 
urban Indian organizations are to be consistent, to the greatest extent 
practicable, with the requirements for grantees under the MIECHV 
Program for states and jurisdictions.
    ECD, in collaboration with the Health Resources and Services 
Administration, Maternal and Child Health Bureau awarded grants for the 
Tribal MIECHV Program (Tribal Home Visiting) to support 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; establish, measure, 
and report on progress toward meeting performance measures in six 
legislatively mandated benchmark areas; and conduct rigorous evaluation 
activities to build the knowledge base on home visiting among Native 
populations.
    After the first grant year, Tribal Home Visiting grantees must 
comply with the requirement to submit an annual report to the Secretary 
that should feature activities carried out under the program during the 
past reporting period, and a final report to the Secretary during the 
final year of their grant. To assist grantees with meeting these 
requirements, ACF created guidance for grantees to use when writing 
their reports. The annual and final report guidance specifies that 
grantees must address the following:

 Update and reflections on meeting Home Visiting Program Goals 
and Objectives
 Update and reflections on Home Visiting Programs in Targeted 
Community(ies)
 Update and reflections on meeting Legislatively Mandated 
Benchmark Requirements
 Update and reflections on Rigorous Evaluation Activities
 Update and reflections on Home Visiting Program Continuous 
Quality Improvement (CQI) Efforts
 Update and reflections on Dissemination Activities
 Update and reflections on Administration of Home Visiting 
Program
 Update and reflections on Technical Assistance Needs

    Previously, the guidance included information about both the annual 
and the final reports from grantees. In 2021, ECD separated out the 
annual report guidance and received OMB approval for that in September 
2021. ECD is now requesting review of guidance specific to the final 
report.
    Respondents: Tribal Home Visiting Managers (information collection 
does not include direct interaction with individuals or families that 
receive the services).
