Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request

    Title: Data Collection Plan for the Customer Satisfaction 
Evaluation of Child Welfare Information Gateway.
    OMB No.: 0970-0303.
    Description: The National Clearinghouse on Child Abuse and Neglect 
Information (NCCAN) and the National Adoption Information Clearinghouse 
(NAIC) received OMB approval to collect data for a customer 
satisfaction evaluation under OMB control number 0970-0303. On June 20, 
2006, NCCAN and NAIC were consolidated into Child Welfare Information 
Gateway (CWIG). In response to this consolidation, the proposed 
information collection activities include revisions to the Customer 
Satisfaction Evaluation approved under OMB control number 0970-0303.
    CWIG is a service of the Children's Bureau, a component within the 
Administration for Children and Families, and CWIG is dedicated to the 
mission of connecting professionals and concerned citizens to 
information on programs, research, legislation, and statistics 
regarding the safety, permanency, and well-being of children and 
families. CWIG's main functions are identifying information needs, 
locating and acquiring information, creating information, organizing 
and storing information, disseminating information, and facilitating 
information exchange among professionals and concerned citizens. A 
number of vehicles are employed to accomplish these activities, 
including, but not limited to, Web site hosting, discussions with 
customers, and dissemination of publications (both print and 
electronic).
    The Customer Satisfaction Evaluation was initiated in response to 
Executive Order 12862 issued on September 11, 1993. The order calls for 
putting customers first and striving for a customer-driven government 
that matches or exceeds the best service available in the private 
sector.
    To that end, CWIG's evaluation is designed to better understand the 
kind and quality of services customers want, as well as customers' 
level of satisfaction with existing services. The proposed data 
collection activities for the evaluation include customer satisfaction 
surveys, customer comment cards, selected publication surveys, and 
focus groups.
