Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request

    Title: Child Care and Development Fund Annual Report (ACF-700).
    OMB No.: 0980-0241.
    Description: The Child Care and Development Fund (CCDF) report 
requests annual tribal aggregate information on services provided 
through the CCDF which is required by the Child Care and Development 
Block Grant (CCDBG) Final Rule (45 CFR parts 98 and 99). Tribes are 
required to submit annual aggregate data appropriate to tribal programs 
on children and families receiving CCDF-funds or CCDBG funded child 
care services. The CCDBG statute and regulations also require Tribal 
Lead Agencies to submit a supplemental narrative as part of the ACF-700 
report. This narrative describes general child care activities and 
actions in the Tribal Lead Agency's service area and is not restricted 
to CCDF-funded child care activities. Instead this description is 
intended to address all child care available in the Tribal Lead 
Agency's service area. The ACF-700 and supplemental narrative report 
will be included in the Secretary's report to Congress, as appropriate, 
and will be shared with all Tribal Lead Agencies to inform them of CCDF 
or CCDBG-funded activities in other tribal programs.
    Respondents: Tribal CCDF Programs (257 in total).
