Title: Tribal Maternal, Infant, and Early Childhood Home Visiting
Program Quarterly Performance Reporting Form.
OMB No.: New Collection.
Description: The Administration for Children and Families (ACF),
Office of Child Care, in collaboration with the Health Resources and
Services Administration (HRSA), Maternal and Child Health Bureau,
administers the Maternal, Infant, and Early Childhood Home Visiting
(MIECHV) Program, as authorized by Title V, Section 511 of the Social
Security Act. The Administration for Children and Families administers
the Tribal MIECHV Program while HRSA administers the State/Territory
MIECHV Program. Tribal MIECHV discretionary grants support cooperative
agreements to conduct community needs assessments; plan for and
implement high-quality, culturally-relevant, evidence-based home
visiting programs in at-risk tribal communities; establish, measure,
and report on progress toward meeting performance measures in six
legislatively-mandated benchmark areas; and conduct rigorous evaluation
activities to build the knowledge base on home visiting among Native
populations.
The proposed data collection form is as follows: In order to
continuously monitor, provide grant oversight, quality improvement
guidance, and technical assistance to Tribal MIECHV grantees, ACF is
seeking to collect services utilization data on a quarterly basis. The
Tribal MIECHV Quarterly Data Performance Reporting Form, is made up of
five categories of data--program capacity, place-based services, family
engagement, staff recruitment and retention and staff vacancies. This
form will be used by Tribal MIECHV grantees that receive grants under
the Tribal MIECHV Program to collect data in order to determine the
caseload capacity grantees are achieving, where services are being
delivered, the retention and attrition of enrolled families, and the
retention and attrition of program staff on a quarterly basis.
Respondents: Tribal Maternal, Infant, and Early Childhood Home
Visiting Program Managers. The information collection does not include
direct interaction with individuals or families that receive the
services.
