early opportunity to comment on information collection requests. OMB

its statutory obligations. The Leader, Regulatory Information

    Abstract: This submission is for a one-time data collection for the 
Evaluation of the American Indian Vocational Rehabilitation Services 
(AIVRS) Program. The information will be used by the Department of 
Education to improve the design of the program, answer questions about 
the program, and justify its budget. There are very limited reporting 
requirements for this program, so the information is needed to describe 
consumer characteristics, services provided, and program outcomes. Most 
of the information will come from project directors, but there will 
also be interviews with project staff, tribal representatives, advisory 
group members, service providers, and State VR agency staff.
