# SUMMARY:

The Corporation for National and Community Service (hereinafter the “Corporation”), as part of its continuing effort to reduce paperwork and respondent burden, conducts a pre-clearance consultation program to provide the general public and Federal agencies with an opportunity to comment on proposed and/or continuing collections of information in accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA95) (44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)). This program helps to ensure that requested data can be provided in the desired format, reporting burden (time and financial resources) is minimized, collection instruments are clearly understood, and the impact of collection requirement on respondents can be properly assessed.

Currently, the Corporation is soliciting comments concerning its proposed Stakeholder Assessment of Senior Corps RSVP grantees. This information collection is a requirement of the Serve America Act. The information collection will be used by the community partners of current Senior Corps grantees for the national RSVP re-competition beginning in 2013. Completion of the Stakeholder Assessment is required in order for RSVP grantees to receive pre-competition training and technical assistance.

## Background

The Serve America Act requires re-competition of RSVP grants beginning in 2013. In preparation for the re-competition, the legislation requires a stakeholder assessment. Each grantee will receive a custom report with feedback, based on the results of the assessments. The Stakeholder Assessment will be completed electronically using Zoomerang.

## Current Action

The information collection is intended to be completed by the Community Advisory Boards of current RSVP grantees. The individual questions have previously existed in grant applications, program handbooks and guidance, however, the format of the information collection is new.

                    The information collection will be used to collect data to enhance technical assistance for current grantees. The Corporation will not use the results of this information collection for decisionmaking purposes regarding grant awards.                          ( print page 1609)
