Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request

    Title: Communities Empowering Youth (CEY) Program Evaluation.
    OMB No.: 0970-0335.
    Description: This proposed information collection activity is to 
obtain information from Communities Empowering Youth (CEY) grantee 
agencies and the faith-based and community organizations working in 
partnership with them. The CEY evaluation is an important opportunity 
to examine the outcomes achieved through this component of the 
Compassion Capital Fund in meeting its objective of improving the 
capacity of faith-based and community organizations and the 
partnerships they form to increase positive youth development and 
address youth violence, gang involvement, and child abuse/neglect. The 
evaluation will be designed to assess changes and improvements in the 
structure and functioning of the partnership and the organizational 
capacity of each participating organization. The purpose of this 
request is to revise the approved baseline instrument for follow-up 
data collection.
    Respondents: CEY grantees and the faith-based and community 
organizations that are a part of the partnership approved under the CEY 
grant are respondents.
