Terms of Clearance: This ICR is approved consistent with changes made to the supporting statement and survey instrument, as reflected in the February 13 version of the instrument and the February 15 revision to the supporting statement. This ICR is also approved on the understanding that ACF will take a cautious approach in interpreting these results: ACF will consider factors such as possible non-response bias and bias resulting from respondents being in different stages of their grant cycle when analyzing and reporting results. Because ACF does not have the statutory authority to provide assurances of confidentiality for this ICR, ACF will not use the term "confidential" in its correspondence with respondents and will use other appropriate language as necessary.
