This information collection request (ICR) is for data collection under the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) Generic Program-Specific Performance Progress Report (PPR) (0970-0490). This overarching generic has allowed ACF program offices to collect performance and progress data from recipients who receive funding from ACF under a discretionary award. This information is required under 45 CFR 75.342, monitoring and reporting program performance; 45 CFR 75.301, performance measurement; and the GPRA Modernization Act of 2010 (Pub.L. 111-352, Sec 12).
In January 2025, the current Administration released multiple Executive Orders (EO) and memoranda requiring updates to information collections that request gender and/or gender identity, to only request âSexâ with the options Male/Female. Additionally, presidential actions focused on the removal of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI)-specific activities. To be responsive to the new administration, ACF is submitting change requests for a number of implicated information collections. This request is specific to updates related to a recent presidential action, as detailed in the accompanying Justification for a NonSubstantive Change Memo.
This is a request for an extension to a previously approved collection. Adjustments to burden estimates reflect changes in the currently approved and ongoing GenICs, updates to estimated average number of responses and burden hours per response (based on feedback, experiences to date, and projections for upcoming years) and the broadened scope to include non-discretionary grants. See A12, subsection Previously Approved and Ongoing Information Collections for additional information.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that the collection of information encompassed by this request complies with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR 1320.8(b)(3).
The following is a summary of the topics, regarding the proposed collection of information, that the certification covers:
(i) Why the information is being collected;
(ii) Use of information;
(iii) Burden estimate;
(iv) Nature of response (voluntary, required for a benefit, or mandatory);
(v) Nature and extent of confidentiality; and
(vi) Need to display currently valid OMB control number;
If you are unable to certify compliance with any of these provisions, identify the item by leaving the box unchecked and explain the reason in the Supporting Statement.
