Under 7 USC §6934, the Office of Partnerships and Public Engagement (OPPE) is directed to administer section 2501 of the Food, Agriculture, Conservation, and Trade Act of 1990 (7 USC §2279, The Act). Section 2501 directs the Secretary of Agriculture to carry out an outreach program to encourage and assist socially disadvantaged farmers and ranchers, veteran farmers and ranchers, and beginning farmers and ranchers in owning and operating farms and ranches, and in participating equitably in the full range of agricultural programs offered by the Department. In order to do so, the Secretary may make grants to eligible entities that have demonstrated an ability to provide such outreach and technical assistance. Part A of this ICR addresses the application process for potential grantees to submit applications for funding to the Secretary for the purposes of fulfilling the requirements of section 2501 of The Act. Additionally, the Secretary is directed by section 2501 of The Act to report certain data to Congress on an annual basis. Part B of this request addresses the creation of a web-based system to collect information from grantees that will partially fulfill this requirement. Part C of this request addresses the creation of a survey tool that will allow OPPE to engage directly with program participants from grantee programs in order to collect the data needed to respond fully to the Act’s requirements for Congressional Reporting.
