Total Estimated Number of Annual Responses: 20. Total Estimated Number of Annual Burden Hours: 600. Abstract: This is a request for an extension of an approved information collection to collect the Annual Performance Report (APR) for the Statewide Family Engagement Centers (SFEC) program. There is an increase in the number of respondents and total burden hours due to an adjustment to the estimated number of respondents. The collection of this information is part of the government-wide effort to improve the performance and accountability of all federal programs. Under the Uniform Guidance and EDGAR, recipients of federal awards are required to submit performance and financial expenditure information. The program-level performance measures and budget information for the SFEC program are reported in the APR. The APR is required under 2 CFR 200.328 and 34 CFR 75.118 and 75.590. It provides data on the status of funded projects that correspond to the scope and objectives established in the approved applications and any amendments. To ensure that accurate and reliable data are reported to Congress on program implementation and performance outcomes, the SFEC APR collects data from grantees in a consistent format to calculate these data in the aggregate.
