Title: Court Improvement Program 

New Grants. 

OMB No. 0970–0307. 

Description: The President signed the 

Deficit Reduction Act of 2005, Public 

Law 109–171, into law on February 8, 

2006. The law authorizes and 

appropriates funds for two new grants 

under the Court Improvement Program 

in title IV–B, section 438 of the Social 

Security Act. The highest State court in 

a State with an approved title IV–E plan 

is eligible to apply for either or both of 

the new grants. The new grants are for 

the purposes of: (1) Ensuring that the 

needs of children are met in a timely 

and complete manner through improved 

case tracking and analysis of child 

welfare cases; and (2) training judges, 

attorneys, and other legal personnel in 

child welfare cases; and conducting 

cross-training with child welfare agency 

staff and contractors. 

The statute requires separate 

applications for these two new grants. 

The annual burden estimates below 

describe the estimated burden for the 

two new grants. ACF collects 

information from the States about their 

work under these grants (applications, 

program reports) by way of a Program 

Instruction issued on June 15, 2006. 

This Program Instruction describes 

the programmatic and fiscal provisions 

and reporting requirements for each of 

the grants, specifies the application 

submittal and approval procedures for 

the grants for fiscal years 2006 through 

2010, and identifies technical resources 

for use by State courts during the course 

of the grants. The agency uses the 

information received to ensure 

compliance with the statute and provide 

training and technical assistance to the 

grantees. 

Respondents: State Courts.
