SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Title; Associated Form; and OMB 

Number: CATCH Program; OMB Control 

Number 0703–0069. 

Type of Request: Revision. 

Number of Respondents: 1,765. 

Responses per Respondent: 1. 

Annual Responses: 1,765. 

Average Burden per Response: 20 

minutes. 

Annual Burden Hours: 588. 

Needs and Uses: Section 543 of Public 

Law 113–291, the National Defense 

Authorization Act (NDAA) for Fiscal 

Year 2015, requires that an individual 

who files a restricted report on an 

incident of sexual assault may elect to 

inform a Military Criminal Investigative 

Organization (MCIO) on a confidential 

basis and without affecting the 

restrictive nature of the report. The 

MCIOs use this information by querying 

it against existing records in the CATCH 

database and against law enforcement 

investigations involving sexual assault 

to identify potential serial sexual assault 

offenders in both restricted and 

unrestricted reports of sexual assault. 

Previously, this information was not 

available to the MCIOs in cases of 

restricted reporting. A separate database 

is required to prevent compromise of 

the victim’s confidentiality which is 

likely to occur if the information is 

entered into MCIO law enforcement 

case management databases. 

Respondents to this information 

collection are victims in restricted and 

certain unrestricted reports of sexual 

assault made to the Department of 

Defense through the Sexual Assault 

Prevention and Response (SAPR) 

Program. Upon making a report of 

sexual assault to a Sexual Assault 

Response Coordinator (SARC), each 

potential respondent is given the option 

to make a voluntary submission to this 

database. The respondents who elect to 

participate can do so by providing 

information electronically through the 

CATCH website or through a printed 

CATCH submission form. Instructions 

and unique login credentials or the 

printed form are provided by the SARC 

handling their case. 

For electronic submissions, 

respondents are directed to the CATCH 

Program website (https://profile.ncis.

navy.mil) by the SARC. Every active 

duty and adult military dependent 

sexual assault victim making a report of 

sexual assault through the SAPR 

program is assigned a SARC who 

coordinates services for the victim 

throughout the process. All SARC 

personnel receive training on this 

program and are required to brief all 

eligible victims reporting sexual assault 

on the option of using the CATCH 

database to report information to the 

MCIO. Each SARC will maintain the 

form and instructions to provide the 

information electronically as part of the 

required information to provide to all of 

their clients. The respondent may 

complete the CATCH submission form, 

at their convenience, and mail it 

directly to the Naval Criminal 

Investigative Service (NCIS) 

Headquarters (HQ) in Quantico, VA. 

The form contains a mailing address to 

submit the paper collection instrument 

upon completion. Alternatively, and 

more commonly, the respondents may 

submit information electronically at the 

CATCH website. The respondents 

access the system through the use of 

unique login credentials provided by 

the SARC. 

The information provided by the 

respondents is entered into a secure 

database maintained by the NCIS HQ in 

Quantico, VA. If information is 

provided by the printed form, an NCIS 

HQ criminal investigator will enter the 

information into the database manually 

upon receipt. If information is provided 

electronically, the respondent will 

submit the entry directly into the 

database. MCIO HQ personnel then 

review the suspect and incident details 

within the respondents’ entries and 

query those details against the CATCH 

system to compare with other CATCH 

entries. The details are also queried 

against MCIO case management systems 

and other law enforcement systems to 

determine if the information can be 

attributed to any suspects in an open or 

closed law enforcement investigation. If 

the information submitted by the 

respondent is matched with other 

reports in the CATCH database or law 

enforcement records indicating the 

possibility of a serial offender, the MCIO 

investigator will contact the Service 

SAPR program representative and 

inform them of the findings. 

Service SAPR personnel will then 

contact the respondent to ascertain the 

respondent’s willingness to make the 

report unrestricted (if restricted) and/or 

report the sexual assault incident to the 

MCIO for the purpose of participating in 

a law enforcement investigation. If the 

respondent agrees, a full investigation 

will be initiated. In a full investigation, 

the respondent conducts an interview 

with an MCIO criminal investigator, 

wherein the respondent describes the 

allegation and provides additional 

information needed by the MCIO to 

conduct an investigation. This full 

investigation may include, but is not 

limited to, an interview of the 

suspect(s), interview of additional 

witnesses, examination and 

documentation of the crime scene, 

reviews of personnel files, medical 

records, and other pertinent records, 

criminal history checks, and forensic 

laboratory analysis. The respondent may 

also be asked to provide sworn 

testimony in judicial or administrative 

proceedings. If the respondent declines 

to unrestrict their report and/or 

participate in a law enforcement 

investigation, no further action will be 

taken with the information collected 

within the CATCH database. The 

successful end result of this information 

collection is the identification of serial 

sexual assault offenders that otherwise 

would have gone undetected if the 

information had remained restricted 

from MCIO access.

Needs and Uses: DoD Child Youth 

Programs (CYPs) require Anchored4Life 

(A4L) to provide Transition and 

Resiliency training to Navy (USN), Air 

Force (USAF), Space Force (USSF), 

Army (USA) and Marine Corps (USMC) 

School based elementary, middle, and 

high schools, installation CYPs, and 

Geo-dispersed locations. Service Branch 

CYPs are required by Title 10 U.S.C. 

1785, ‘‘Youth Sponsorship Program’’ 

and DoD Instruction 6060.04, ‘‘Youth 

Services (YS) Policy,’’ to provide School 

Liaison program and Youth 

Sponsorship. Service Branches use CYP 

Education Services (CYES) to execute 

this requirement using School Liaisons 

(SL), School Based Programs (SBP) and 

Youth Programs (YP). Execution 

includes providing resiliency and 

transition training and support, as well 

as system navigation assistance to 

parents of military associated children. 

A4L is an essential element of the 

military CYPs, PreK–12 System 

Navigation, and youth sponsorship 

programs and shall be provided at 

military installations and be available to 

Geo-dispersed locations. 

The USN, USAF, and USSF, through 

the Trevor Romain Contract HDQMWR– 

21–D–003, are requesting OMB approval 

for a qualitative study of the A4L 

program intended to support militaryconnected youth. Military-connected 

youth in kindergarten through 12th 

grade face challenges that are similar to 

their civilian counterparts and also face 

unique challenges specific to their 

association with the military (e.g., 

deployments, frequent moves; Karre & 

Perkins, 2022). There has been little 

research examining the implementation 

or effectiveness of programs and 

initiatives available to support militaryconnected youth (Karre & Perkins, 

2022). 

The purpose of this study is to 

investigate the implementation of A4L 

training to support military-connected 

youth (i.e., kindergarten through 12th 

grade) to review current research on K– 

12 military-connected youth and 

evaluate A4L programming to determine 

effectiveness of transition, deployment 

support, and resiliency impact on other 

key youth issues including bullying 

prevention, as well as recovery from 

grief and suicide. The long-term goal is 

to foster life skills and resiliency in 

military-connected youth while in 

school. Supporting youth is helpful to 

the military since about 45% of 

military-connected youth enter Military 

Service as adults. Having these life 

skills will assist youth in becoming 

productive young adults. 

The evaluation questions to be 

addressed are as follows: 

(1) How is A4L programming being 

implemented within schools and the 

Child and Youth Programs? 

(2) Is the training and support 

increasing program quality through 

knowledge acquisition and 

standardization? 

(3) Are the youth being supported by 

their peers when going through the 

transition topics supported by A4L? 

(4) Are youth learning life skills, 

beginning in elementary school, that 

increase their resiliency to become 

productive young adults? 

(5) Are the partnerships or other 

programs having the intended impact? 

(6) Based on the analysis of the 

implementation data, what 

recommendations related evidenceinformed practices within youth 

development need to be implemented or 

enhanced? 

To answer these evaluative questions, 

semi-structured interviews will be 

conducted with A4L Stakeholders 

(Military Connected Individuals, 

Administrative points of contact, 

Advisers, and A4L Staff) and youth 

participating in A4L (Team Leaders, 

Crew Members, and A4L 

representatives).

households.
