Overview of This Information Collection

    (1) Type of Information Collection: Revision to Currently Approved 
Collection
    (2) Title of the Form/Collection: Semi-Annual Progress Report for 
Grantees from the Enhanced Training and Services to End Violence 
Against and Abuse of Women Later in Life Program (Training Program)
    (3) Agency form number, if any, and the applicable component of the 
Department of Justice sponsoring the collection: Form Number: 1122-
0008. U.S. Department of Justice, Office on Violence Against Women
    (4) Affected public who will be asked or required to respond, as 
well as a brief abstract: The affected public includes the 
approximately 18 grantees of the Training Program. Training Program 
grants may be used for training programs to assist law enforcement 
officers, prosecutors, and relevant officers of Federal, State, tribal, 
and local courts in recognizing, addressing, investigating, and 
prosecuting instances of elder abuse, neglect, and exploitation and 
violence against individuals with disabilities, including domestic 
violence and sexual assault, against older or disabled individuals. 
Grantees fund projects that focus on providing training for criminal 
justice professionals to enhance their ability to address elder abuse, 
neglect and exploitation in their communities and enhanced services to 
address these crimes.
    (5) An estimate of the total number of respondents and the amount 
of time estimated for an average respondent to respond/reply: It is 
estimated that it will take the approximately 18 respondents (Training 
Program grantees) approximately one hour to complete a semi-annual 
progress report. The semi-annual progress report is divided into 
sections that pertain to the different types of activities in which 
grantees may engage. A Training Program grantee will only be required 
to complete the sections of the form that pertain to its own specific 
activities.
    (6) An estimate of the total public burden (in hours) associated 
with the collection: The total annual hour burden to complete the data 
collection forms is 36 hours, that is 18 grantees completing a form 
twice a year with an estimated completion time for the form being one 
hour. If additional information is required contact: Jerri Murray, 
Department Clearance Officer, United States Department of Justice,
