Title: Children, Youth, and Families 

at Risk (CYFAR) Year EndReport. 

OMB Control Number: 0524–NEW. 

Summary of Collection: The Children, 

Youth, and Families at Risk (CYFAR) 

funding program supports communitybased programs serving children, youth, 

and families in at risk environments. 

CYFAR funds are intended to support 

the development of high quality, 

effective programs based on research 

and to document the impact of these 

programs on intended audiences. The 

CYFAR Year End Report collects 

demographic and impact data from each 

community site, which is used by the 

Cooperative State Research, Education, 

and Extension Service (CSREES). 

Funding for the CYFAR is authorized 

under section 3(d) of the Smith-Lever 

Act (7 U.S.C. 341 et seq.), as amended 

and other relevant authorizing 

legislation, which provides 

jurisdictional basis for the establishment 

and operation of extension educational 

work for the benefit of youth and 

families in communities. 

Need and Use of the Information: The 

CYFAR data is used to respond to 

requests for impact information from 

Congress, the White House, and other 

Federal agencies. Data from the CYFAR 

annual reports is used to refine and 

improve program focus and 

effectiveness. If this information were 

not collected CSREES would not be able 

to verify if CYFAR programs are 

reaching at risk, low-income audiences. 

Description of Respondents: State, 

Local or Tribal Government. 

Number of Respondents: 50. 

Frequency of Responses: Reporting: 

Annually.
