Submission for Office of Management 

and Budget Review; Tribal Child 

Support Direct Funding Request: 45 

CFR 309 (Office of Management and 

Budget #0970–0218) 

AGENCY: The Office of Child Support 

Services, Administration for Children 

and Families, Department of Health and 

Human Services. 

ACTION: Request for public comments. 

SUMMARY: The Office of Child Support 

Services (OCSS) is requesting a review 

by the Office of Management and 

Budget (OMB) of revisions to the Tribal 

Child Support Direct Funding Request: 

(OMB #0970–0218). These revisions are 

necessary to align this collection with 

updates resulting from a final rule: 

Employment and Training Services for 

Noncustodial Parents in the Child 

Support Program, which will require 

tribes to amend tribal plans if they elect 

to participate in employment and 

training services for non-custodial 

parents in the child support program. 

DATES: Comments due January 30, 2025. 

OMB must decide about the collection 

of information between 30 and 60 days 

after publication of this document in the 

Federal Register. Therefore, a comment 

is best assured of having its full effect 

if OMB receives it within 30 days of 

publication. 

ADDRESSES: Written comments and 

recommendations for the proposed 

information collection should be sent 

within 30 days of publication of this 

notice to www.reginfo.gov/public/do/ 

PRAMain. Find this information 

collection by selecting ‘‘Currently under 

30-day Review—Open for Public 

Comments’’ or by using the search 

function. You can also obtain copies of 

the proposed collection of information 

by emailing infocollection@acf.hhs.gov. 

Identify all emailed requests by the title 

of the information collection. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Description: On May 31, 2024, OCSS 

published a Notice for Proposed 

Rulemaking (89 Federal Register (FR) 

47109; Regulation Identifier Numbers 

(RIN) 0970–AD00) proposing to allow 

federal financial participation (FFP) for 

certain optional and nonduplicative 

employment and training services for 

eligible noncustodial parents in the 

child support program. 

On December 13, 2024, OCSS 

published the Employment and 

Training Services for Noncustodial 

Parents in the Child Support Program 

final rule (89 FR 100789; RIN 0970– 

AD00). This final rule permits tribes, at 

their discretion, to use FFP to provide 

any or all of the following services: Job 

search assistance; job readiness training; 

job development and job placement 

services; skills assessments; job 

retention services; work supports; and 

occupational training and other skills 

training directly related to employment. 

This rule results in revisions to this 

information collection, as tribes that 

elect to participate in employment and 

training services for non-custodial 

parents in the child support program 

must submit a plan amendment to 

OCSS. To account for tribes potentially 

submitting revisions to their tribal plans 

and as required by the Paperwork 

Reduction Act (PRA) of 1995, we are 

submitting the revised data collection to 

OMB for review and approval. Tribes 

can elect to participate in these services 

by submitting a plan amendment as set 

forth in revised 45 CFR 309.65(b). OCSS 

is updating the burden estimates to 

account for potential additional 

amendments because of this rule. 

Respondents: Tribal IV–D Agencies. 

Annual Burden Estimates 

We estimate that tribes opting to 

provide nonduplicative employment 

and training services for eligible 

noncustodial parents will take six hours 

to draft the required information to 

amend their tribal plans. We estimate 

that about 36 tribes will submit 

amendments.

Proposed Information Collection 

Activity; Regional Partnership Grants 

National Cross-Site Evaluation and 

Evaluation Technical Assistance 

(Office of Management and Budget 

#0970–0527) 

AGENCY: Children’s Bureau, 

Administration for Children and 

Families, Department of Health and 

Human Services. 

ACTION: Request for public comments. 

SUMMARY: The Children’s Bureau (CB), 

Administration for Children and 

Families (ACF), Administration for 

Children, Youth and Families (ACYF), 

U.S. Department of Health and Human 

Services (HHS), is requesting an 

extension with changes to the approved 

information collection: Regional 

Partnership Grants (RPG) National 

Cross-Site Evaluation and Evaluation 

Technical Assistance (Office of 

Management and Budget (OMB) #0970– 

0527). The proposed information 

collection will be used in a national 

cross-site evaluation of the seventh 

cohort of CB’s RPG. The cross-site 

evaluation will use a survey, interviews, 

focus groups, and data on participant 

enrollment, services, and outcomes. 

DATES: Comments due March 3, 2025. In 

compliance with the requirements of the 

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, ACF 

is soliciting public comment on the 

specific aspects of the information 

collection described above. 

ADDRESSES: You can obtain copies of the 

proposed collection of information and 

submit comments by emailing 

infocollection@acf.hhs.gov. Identify all 

requests by the title of the information 

collection. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Description: The Child and Family 

Services Improvement Act of 2006 

(Public Law 109–288) amended Section 

437 of the Social Security Act (42 U.S.C. 

629g[f]) and authorized HHS, ACF, 

ACYF, and CB to fund discretionary 

grants to improve safety, well-being, and 

permanency outcomes for children at 

risk of or in out-of-home placement 

because of their caregiver’s substance 

misuse. In response, HHS launched a 

competitive grants program called 

‘‘Targeted Grants to Increase the WellBeing of, and to Improve the 

Permanency Outcomes for, Children 

Affected by Methamphetamine and 

Other Substance Abuse,’’ which is also 

known as the RPG program. 

Reauthorized in 2011 and again most 

recently by the Bipartisan Budget Act of 

2018 (Public Law 115–123) in 2018, 

these grants are designed to support 

partnerships between child welfare 

agencies, substance use disorder 

treatment organizations, and other 

social services systems, and thereby 

improve the well-being, permanency, 

and safety outcomes of children and 

families. Under six prior rounds of RPG, 

CB has issued 109 grants to 

organizations such as child welfare or 

substance use treatment providers or 

family court systems to develop 

interagency collaborations and 

integration of programs, activities, and 

services designed to increase well-being, 

improve permanency, and enhance the 

safety of children who are in an out-ofhome placement or at risk of being 

placed in out-of-home care as a result of 

a parent’s or caretaker’s substance 

misuse. In 2022, CB awarded 18 grants 

to a seventh cohort (RPG7). The current 

request is for data collection activities 

associated with the 18 RPG7 grantees. 

Data collection for the first three cohorts 

was approved under OMB Control 

Numbers 0970–0353 and 0970–0444. 

Data collection for the fourth, fifth, and 

sixth cohorts were approved under this 

OMB Control Number (0970–0527). 

The RPG cross-site evaluation will 

extend the understanding about how 

RPG programs and services may 

improve outcomes for children and 

families. First, the cross-site evaluation 

will assess the coordination of partners’ 

service systems with an emphasis on the 

partnership between the child welfare 

and substance use treatment agencies, to 

add to the research base about how 

these agencies can collaborate to 

address the needs of children and 

families affected by substance misuse 

(partnerships analysis). Second, the 

evaluation will describe the experiences 

of adult participants enrolled in RPG 

services, such as their motivations for 

enrollment and satisfaction with 

services received (participant 

experiences analysis). Third, the 

evaluation will summarize supports 

within the partnership that can help 

improve and sustain RPG services, such 

as using data for service improvement, 

identifying a lead organization, and 

securing funding sources after grant 

funding ends (sustainability analysis). 

Fourth, the evaluation will describe the 

characteristics of participants served by 

RPG programs, the types of services 

provided to families, the dosage of each 

type of service received by families, and 

the level of participant engagement with 

the services provided (enrollment and 

services analysis). Finally, the 

evaluation will assess the outcomes of 

children and adults served through the 

RPG program, such as child behavioral 

problems, adult depressive symptoms, 

or adult substance use and treatment 

(outcomes and impacts analysis). 

For cohort seven, CB is requesting an 

extension of most of the currently 

approved information collections (most 

recently approved in April 2022) with 

no changes, the removal of two 

approved data collections, and the 

addition of three new instruments. This 

will allow CB to continue obtaining 

participant data from grantees that they 

collect for their local evaluations, and 

for directly collecting additional data 

from grantees and their partners and 

providers for the cross-site evaluation. 

Specifically, this request:
