## Overview of This Information Collection

                    (1)                     *Type of Information Collection:*                     Extension of a currently approved collection.                

                    (2)                     *Title of the Form/Collection:*                     Semi-Annual Progress Report for Grantees of the Transitional Housing Assistance Grant Program.                

                    (3)                     *Agency form number, if any, and the applicable component of the Department of Justice sponsoring the collection:*                     Form Number: 1122-0016. U.S. Department of Justice, Office on Violence Against Women.                

                    (4)                     *Affected public who will be asked or required to respond, as well as a brief abstract:*                     The affected public includes the approximately 120 grantees of the Transitional Housing Assistance Grant Program (Transitional Housing Program) whose eligibility is determined by statute. This discretionary grant program provides transitional housing, short-term housing assistance, and related support services for individuals who are homeless, or in need of transitional housing or other housing assistance, as a result of fleeing a situation of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, or stalking, and for whom emergency shelter services or other crisis intervention services are unavailable or insufficient. Eligible applicants are States, units of local government, Indian tribal governments, and other organizations, including domestic violence and sexual assault victim services providers, domestic violence or sexual assault coalitions, other nonprofit, nongovernmental organizations, or community-based and culturally specific organizations, that have a documented history of effective work concerning domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, or stalking.                

                    (5)                     *An estimate of the total number of respondents and the amount of time estimated for an average respondent to respond/reply:*                     It is estimated that it will take the 120 respondents (grantees) approximately one hour to complete the Semi-Annual Progress Report. The semi-annual progress report is divided into sections that pertain to the different types of activities that grantees may engage in and the different types of grantees that receive funds. A Transitional Housing Program grantee will only be required to complete the sections of the form that pertain to its own specific activities.                

                    (6)                     *An estimate of the total public burden (in hours) associated with the collection:*                     The total annual hour burden to complete the data collection forms is 240 hours, that is 120 grantees completing a form twice a year with an estimated completion time for the form being one hour.
