Title: Child Care and Development 

Fund Annual Aggregate Report. 

OMB No.: 0970–0150. 

Description: Section 658K of the Child 

Care and Development Block Grant Act 

of 1990 (Pub. L. 101–508, 42 U.S.C. 

9858) requires that the States and the 

Territories submit annual aggregate data 

on the children and families receiving 

direct services under the Child Care and 

Development Fund. The implementing 

regulations for the statutorily required 

reporting are at 45 CFR 98.70. Annual 

aggregate reports include data elements 

represented in the ACF–800. The 

Administration for Children and 

Families (ACF) uses aggregate data to 

determine the scope, type, and methods 

of child care delivery. This provides 

ACF with the information necessary to 

make reports to Congress, address 

national child care needs, offer 

technical assistance to grantees, meet 

performance measures, and conduct 

research. Consistent with the statute and 

regulations, ACF requests extension of 

the ACF–800. 

Respondents: States, the District of 

Columbia, and the Territories, including 

Puerto Rico, Guam, the U.S. Virgin 

Islands, American Samoa, and the 

Northern Mariana Islands.

Title: Early Head Start Research and 

Evaluation Project: 5th-Grade followUp. 

OMB No.: 0970–0143. 

Description: The Administration for 

Children and Families (ACF) within the 

Department of Health and Human 

Services (HHS) is requesting comments 

on plans to collect 5th-grade follow-up 

data on children recruited into the Early 

Head Start Research and Evaluation 

study. This study is being conducted to 

assess children and families when the 

children in the study will be 5th graders 

or attending the 6th year of their formal 

schooling. Because of the way children 

and families were initially recruited for 

the study, it will take three years to 

collect 5th-grade data from the full 

sample of children. About 30 percent of 

the sample will be 5th graders in spring 

2007, 50 percent in spring 2008, and 20 

percent in spring 2009. Data will be 

collected on a sample of approximately 

1,900 children and families across all 17 

of the Early Head Start research sites. 

Data collection will include a child 

assessment and a child interview, an 

interview with the child’s primary 

caregiver (usually the child’s mother), 

videotaping of mother-child interactions 

and a set of home observations, and a 

questionnaire to be completed by the 

child’s 5th-grade teacher. 

This data collection is necessitated by 

the mandates of the 1998 

reauthorization of Head Start (Head 

Start Act, as amended, October 27, 1998, 

Section 649 (d) and (e)). 

Respondents: Individuals or 

households.
