    Abstract: The Consumer Financial Protect Bureau (CFPB), beginning 
in the winter of 2015, will launch a multi-site financial education 
demonstration project to provide one-on-one and group financial 
counseling/coaching services to individuals with disabilities 
transitioning into the workplace or already employed. The goal is 
twofold: (1) To improve the financial skills of approximately 15,000 
individuals across the spectrum of disability to effectively navigate 
the financial marketplace, resulting in improved credit, reduced debt, 
and increased savings; and (2) to build the capacity of diverse multi-
sector systems (non-disability and disability) in up to 14 cities to 
unite around the common purpose of building financial security for 
individuals with disabilities. CFPB envisions the need to collect a 
combination of client personally identifiable information (PII), 
including direct-identifying PII (i.e., basic contact and demographic 
information), performance metrics (outputs), as well as other relevant 
organization-level outcomes. Monthly qualitative reports and 
quantitative aggregated individual data will be collected from 
participating sites to document the design, growth and impact of up to 
14 integrated diverse delivery models serving primarily low-income 
populations with disabilities.
    Request for Comments: The Bureau issued a 60-day Federal Register 
notice on October 17, 2014, 79 FR 62420. Comments were solicited and 
continue to be invited on: (a) Whether the collection of information is 
necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the Bureau, 
including whether the information will have practical utility; (b) The 
accuracy of the Bureau's estimate of the burden of the collection of 
information, including the validity of the methods and the assumptions 
used; (c) Ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the 
information to be collected; and (d) Ways to minimize the burden of the 
collection of information on respondents, including through the use of 
automated collection techniques or other forms of information 
technology. Comments submitted in response to this notice will be 
summarized and/or included in the request for Office of Management and 
Budget (OMB) approval. All comments will become a matter of public 
record.

    Dated: December 23, 2014.
