Subject for OMB Review; Comment Request

    Title: Evaluation of the Early Head Start Fatherhood Demonstration.
    OMB No.: New Collection.
    Description: ACYF, in partnership with the Office of Child Support 
Enforcement (OCSE), recently funded 21 Early Head Start grantees to 
develop and implement creative practices to increase the involvement of 
fathers in their Early Head Start program and in the lives of their 
children. This submission requests approval to conduct the survey of 
demonstration staff and to collect father participation data from the 
demonstration programs.
    Respondents: To reduce the burden of demonstration staff, the 
survey will be configured in four versions. The Director Version will 
be completed by the Early Head Start program directors. The Father 
Coordinator Version will be completed by the staff member responsible 
for father activities. The Family Specialist Version will be completed 
by the staff member who works most closely with the Early Head Start 
families in the home. The Teacher Version will be completed by the 
staff member working with families of children participating in the 
Early Head Start child care programs.
