Overview of This Information Collection
(1) Type of Information Collection: Extension of a currently
approved collection.
(2) Title of the Form/Collection: Semi-annual Progress Report for
Children and Youth Exposed to Violence Program.
(3) Agency form number, if any, and the applicable component of the
Department of Justice sponsoring the collection: Form Number: 1122-
0028. U.S. Department of Justice, Office on Violence Against Women.
(4) Affected public who will be asked or required to respond, as
well as a brief abstract: The affected public includes the
approximately 25 grantees under the Consolidated Grant Program to
Address Children and Youth Experiencing Domestic and Sexual Assault and
Engage Men and Boys as Allies (hereafter referred to as the
Consolidated Youth Program) enacted in the FY 2012, 2013, 2014, and
2015 appropriation acts, which consolidated four previously authorized
and appropriated programs into one comprehensive program. The four
programs included in the FY 2012, FY 2013, FY 2014, and FY 2015
consolidations were: Services to Advocate for and Respond to Youth
(Youth Services), Grants to Assist Children and Youth Exposed to
Violence (CEV), Engaging Men and Youth in Preventing Domestic Violence
(EMY), and Supporting Teens through Education and Prevention (STEP).
The Consolidated Youth Program supports projects designed to
provide coordinated community responses that support child, youth and
young adult victims through direct services, training, coordination and
collaboration, effective intervention, treatment, response, and
prevention strategies. The Consolidated Youth Program creates a unique
opportunity for communities to increase collaboration among non-profit
victim service providers; violence prevention, and children (0-10),
youth (11-18), young adult (19-24) and men-serving organizations;
tribes and tribal governments; local government agencies; schools; and
programs that support men's role in combating sexual assault, domestic
violence, dating violence and stalking.
(5) An estimate of the total number of respondents and the amount
of time estimated for an average respondent to respond/reply: It is
estimated that it will take the approximately 25 respondents (grantees
from the Consolidated Youth Program) approximately one hour to complete
a semi-annual progress report. The semi-annual progress report is
divided into sections that pertain to the different types of activities
in which grantees may engage. A Consolidated Youth Program grantee will
only be required to complete the sections of the form that pertain to
its own specific activities.
(6) An estimate of the total public burden (in hours) associated
with the collection: The total annual hour burden to complete the data
collection forms is 50 hours, that is 25 grantees completing a form
twice a year with an estimated completion time for the form being one
hour.
