(42 U.S.C. 629-629e) to provide funding for nonprofit agencies that

role models. Information from the Mentoring Children of Prisoners 
Online Data Collection is necessary for ACF's reporting and planning 
under the Government Performance and Results Act (GPRA), and to support 
evaluation requirements within GPRA. Information collected will be used 
for accountability monitoring, management improvement, and research. 
Data collection ensures that ACF knows if grantees of the MCP program 
are meeting the established targets (established based on research and 
benchmarks) recorded in the grant application as required by the GPRA, 
and that mentoring activities are faithful to characteristics 
established by research as essential to success. Data collected will 
also support grantees as they carry out ongoing responsibilities, 
maintain program service, and manage information for internal uses.
    Respondents: Public, faith-based and community organizations 
receiving funding to implement the MCP program.
