    Description: The Office of Family Assistance (OFA), Administration 
for Children and Families (ACF), U.S. Department of Health and Human 
Services (HHS), intends to request approval from the Office of 
Management and Budget (OMB) to extend OMB Form 0970-0365 for the 
collection of performance measures from grantees for the Community-
Centered Healthy Marriage, Pathways to Responsible Fatherhood and 
Community-Centered Responsible Fatherhood Ex-Prisoner Reentry 
discretionary grant programs. ACF offered a one year extension to all 
grants in an effort to increase the consistency and stability in 
program implementation, particularly in view of grantee progress toward 
achieving program goals. The performance measure data obtained from the 
grantees will be used by OFA to continue

reporting on the overall performance of these grant programs.
    Data will be collected from all 60 Community-Centered Healthy 
Marriage, 54 Pathways to Responsible Fatherhood and 5 Community-
Centered Responsible Fatherhood Ex-Prisoner Reentry grantees in the OFA 
programs. Grantees will report on program and participant outcomes in 
such areas as participants' improvement in knowledge skills, attitudes, 
and behaviors related to healthy marriage and responsible fatherhood. 
Grantees will be asked to input data for selected outcomes for 
activities funded under the grants. Grantees will extract data from 
program records and will report the data twice yearly through an on-
line data collection tool. Training and assistance will be provided to 
grantees to support this data collection process.
    Respondents: Office of Family Assistance Funded Community-Centered 
Healthy Marriage, Pathways to Responsible Fatherhood and Community-
Centered Responsible Fatherhood Ex-Prisoner Reentry Grantees.
