    Title: Compassion Capital Fund Evaluation--Initial Outcome Study.
    OMB No.: New Collection.
    Description: This proposed information collection activity is for 
an initial outcome study that is one component of the evaluation of the 
Compassion Capital Fund (CCF) program. The information collection will 
be through mailed surveys to be completed by selected faith-based and 
community organizations that received sub-awards from CCF grantees. The 
CCF grantees are intermediary organizations that provide capacity 
building services to faith-based and community organizations.
    The CCF evaluation is an important opportunity to examine the 
outcomes and effectiveness of the Compassion Capital Fund in meeting 
its objective of improving the capacity of faith-based and community 
organizations. This initial outcome study component of the evaluation 
will involve approximately 180 faith-based and community organizations. 
Information will be sought from these organizations to assess change 
and improvement in various areas of capacity resulting from receipt of 
sub-awards.
    Respondents: The respondents will be selected faith-based and 
community organizations that received sub-awards in 2003 from nine 
selected CCF intermediary grantees. The surveys will be self-
administered.
