Administration for Children and Families


Proposed Information Collection Activity; Comment Request

    Proposed Projects:
    Title: Head Start Program Information Report.
    OMB No.: 0970-0427.
    Description: The Office of Head Start within the Administration for 
Children and Families, United States Department of Health and Human 
Services, is proposing to renew, with changes, authority to collect 
information using the Head Start Program Information Report (PIR), 
monthly enrollment, contacts, and center locations. All information is 
collected electronically through the Head Start Enterprise System 
(HSES). The PIR provides information about Head Start and Early Head 
Start services received by the children and families enrolled in Head 
Start programs. The information collected in the PIR is used to inform 
the public about these programs, to make periodic reports to Congress 
about the status of children in Head Start programs as required by the 
Head Start Act, and to assist the administration and training/technical 
assistance of Head Start programs. Other program data is used to track 
enrollment, contact the program, provide a locator for parents to find 
a nearby program, and for oversight.
    Respondents: Head Start and Early Head Start program grant 
recipients.
