    Title: Voluntary Surveys of Program Partners to Implement Executive 
Order 12862.
    OMB No.: 0980-0266.
    Description: Under the provisions of the Federal Paperwork 
Reduction Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104-13), the Administration for Children 
and Families (ACF) is requesting clearance for instruments to implement 
Executive Order 12862 within ACF. The purpose of the data collection is 
to obtain customer satisfaction information from those entities who are 
funded to be our partners in the delivery of services to the American 
public. ACF partners are those entities that receive funding to deliver 
services or assistance from ACF programs. Examples of partners are 
state and local governments, territories, service providers, Indian 
Tribes and Tribal organizations, grantees, researchers, or other 
intermediaries serving target populations identified by and funded 
directly or indirectly by ACF. The surveys will obtain information 
about how well ACF is meeting the needs of our partners in operating 
the ACF programs.
    Respondents: State, Local, & Tribal Govt. or not-for-profit 
Organizations.
