*Description:*                     DOL currently does not have a mechanism by which to obtain information regarding the grants, contracts, and cooperative agreements being awarded by local and state WIBs using Workforce Investment Act (WIA) funds. It is critical that DOL begin to obtain information about these grants, contracts, and cooperative agreements in order to better understand how much money is being spent and the types of organizations receiving the funds. DOL is especially interested in obtaining information on awards to faith-based organizations. DOL is interested in obtaining information about grants, contracts, and cooperative agreements using WIA youth funds in particular.                 

                    The WIB survey will bridge this gap in DOL-ETA's knowledge of WIB grants, contracts, and cooperative agreements using WIA youth funds. Through this survey, DOL plans to contact every state and local WIB, rather than a representative sample of WIBs. This is because DOL wants to obtain not only summary information about the grants, contracts, and cooperative agreements (                    *e.g.*, average amount, average number awarded by each WIB, etc.), but also specific information about each individual award in the past year. Because we are not sampling the WIBs, we have not needed to provide a sampling plan.                 

The survey will ask each WIB a small number of questions. These questions will be: 
    - Name of the organization receiving the grant/contract/cooperative agreement
    - City where organization is located
    - State where organization is located
    - Amount of the grant/contract/cooperative agreement
    - Type of organization receiving award ( e.g. , state and local government, educational institution, faith-based organization).                 

This survey will be administered to the state and local WIBs using the internet.
