Proposed Information Collection Activity; Comment Request
Proposed Projects: Runaway and Homeless Youth--Homeless Management
Information System (RHY-HMIS)
Description: The Runaway and Homeless Youth (RHY) 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 Modernization Act of 2010. 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: The respondents are the youth who are recipients of
services from RHY program grants, which are made up of States,
localities, private entities and coordinated networks of such entities.
Typical respondents are the youth that participate in the Basic Center,
Transitional Living/Maternity Group Home, and Street Outreach programs.
