ACTION:
Request for public comments.
The Office of Planning,
Research, and Evaluation (OPRE) and
the Family and Youth Services Bureau
in the Administration for Children and
Families (ACF) request an extension
without changes to a currently approved
information collection activity as part of
the Sexual Risk Avoidance Education
(SRAE) Program Performance Analysis
Study (PAS). The goal of the study is to
collect, analyze, and report on
performance measures data for the
SRAE program (OMB Control No. 0970–
0536; expiration date 12/31/2023). The
purpose of the requested extension is to
continue the ongoing data collection
and submission of the performance
measures by SRAE grantees. Materials
under the submission will be updated to
reflect only surveys currently in use.
DATES: Comments due within 60 days of
publication. In compliance with the
requirements of the Paperwork
Reduction Act 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
OPREinfocollection@acf.hhs.gov.
Identify all requests by the title of the
information collection.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Description: The purpose of the SRAE
program is to educate youth on how to
voluntarily refrain from nonmarital
sexual activity and prevent other youth
risk behaviors. Data will continue to be
used to determine if the SRAE grantees
are meeting performance benchmarks
related to their program’s mission and
priorities.
SUMMARY:
PO 00000
Frm 00033
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
The SRAE PAS collects performance
measures data from SRAE grantees,
program providers, and participants.
The data include information on
program structure, cost, and support for
implementation; program attendance,
reach, and dosage; the characteristics of
youth involved in programming; youth
sexual and other risky behavior prior to
program participation; and youth sexual
and other risky behavior intentions at
program exit. The performance
measures help the ACF program office
and grantees to monitor and report on
progress in implementing SRAE
programs and inform technical
assistance.
Some of the performance measures
data come from youth participants
through surveys SRAE grantees
administer at program entry and exit.
There are separate versions of the entry
and exit surveys for middle school
youth, which exclude some of the more
sensitive items that are included in the
versions for high school and older
youth. There is also a shorter version of
the entry survey for programs
conducting impact studies, to reduce
the burden on participants in those
programs who are likely responding to
other surveys as part of their impact
study. Although there was a version of
the exit survey for programs conducting
impact studies in the past, youth in
these programs complete the same
version of the exit survey as other
youth. As the shorter exit surveys are no
longer in use, they will be removed
through this request.
Respondents: General Departmental
(GDSRAE), State (SSRAE), and
Competitive (CSRAE) grantees, their
subrecipients, and program participants.
