    Abstract: This is a revision of the Child Care Access Means Parent 
in School Program (CCAMPIS) Annual Performance Report (APR) which 
grantees must submit annually. The report provides the Department of 
Education with information needed to evaluate a grantee's performance 
and compliance with program requirements in accordance with the program 
authorizing statute. The data collected is aggregated to provide 
national information on project participants and the results 
demonstrated by program outcomes. The burden hours are increased due to 
additional queries that have been added to the APR that capture more 
specific data needed to enhance the understanding of results 
demonstrated by this program in accordance with Office of Management 
and Budget mandates.
