Proposed Projects
Title: National Extranet Optimized Runaway and Homeless Youth
Management Information System (NEORHYMIS) Version 3.0.
OMB No.: 0970-0123.
Description: The Runaway and Homeless Youth Act, as amended by
Public Law 106-71 (42 U.S.C. 5701 et seq.), mandates that the
Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) report regularly to
Congress on the status of HHS-funded programs serving runaway and
homeless youth. Such reporting is similarly mandated by the Government
Performance and Results Act. Organizations funded under the Runaway and
Homeless Youth program are required by statute (42 U.S.C. 5712, 42
U.S.C. 5714-2) to meet certain data collection and reporting
requirements. These requirements include maintenance of client
statistical records on the number and the characteristics of the
runaway and homeless youth, and youth at risk of family separation, who
participate in the project, and the services provided to such youth by
the project.
Respondents: States localities, private entities and coordinated
networks of such entities. Typical respondents are non-profit community
based organizations who are reporting on the youth that they serve
through their Basic Center, Transitional Living and Street Outreach
programs.
