Proposed Projects
Title: ANA Project Outcomes Assessment Survey
OMB No.: 0970-0379
Description: The information collected by the Project Outcomes
Assessment Survey is needed for two main reasons: (1) To collect
crucial information required to report on the Administration for Native
Americans' (ANA) established Government Performance and Results Act
(GPRA) measures, and (2) to properly abide by ANA's congressionally-
mandated statute (42 United States Code 2991 et seq.) found within the
Native American Programs Act of 1974, as amended, which states that ANA
will evaluate projects assisted through ANA grant dollars ``including
evaluations that describe and measure the impact of such projects,
their effectiveness in achieving stated goals, their impact on related
programs, and their structure and mechanisms for delivery of
services.'' The information collected with this survey will fulfill
ANA's statutory requirement and will also serve as an important
planning and performance tool for ANA.
Respondents: Tribal Governments, Native American nonprofit
organizations, and Tribal Colleges and Universities
