Information on Document

    Title: Application for FY 1994 Funds for Family Preservation and 
Family Support Services.
    OMB No.: 0980--New Request.
    Description: New legislation in the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation 
Act (OBRA) of 1994 authorizes entitlement funding to States and certain 
Indian Tribes and Tribal organizations for family preservation and 
family support services. The major purpose of family preservation 
services is to help alleviate family crises that otherwise might lead 
to the foster care placement of children, e.g., intensive in-home 
services, respite care, and services for adoptive parents. The major 
purpose of family support services is to provide preventive services to 
families to help alleviate stress (e.g., to prevent child abuse), 
increase parents' child-rearing abilities and parenting skills, and 
assist families to use other available community resources, e.g., 
center-based services, home visiting, and early developmental screening 
of children.
    Annual Number of Respondents: 92.
    Annual Frequency: 1.
    Average Burden Hours Per Response: 144.
    Total Burden Hours: 13,248.

    Dated: January 10, 1994.
