Cooperative State Research, Education, and Extension Service

    Title: Children, Youth, and Families at Risk (CYFAR) Year End 
Report.
    OMB Control Number: 0524-0043.
    Summary of Collection: The Children, Youth, and Families at Risk 
(CYFAR) funding program supports community-based 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 which are children, youth, and families in at-risk 
environments. 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 purpose of the CYFAR Year End 
Report is to collect the demographic and impact data from each 
community site in order to evaluate the impact of the programs on 
intended audiences. The CYFAR data is also 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. Without the information 
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.
    Total Burden Hours: 16,100.

Departmental Information Collection Clearance Officer.
