[[Page 62606]]

Domestic and Sexual Assault and Engage Men and Boys as Allies 
(hereafter referred to as the Consolidated Youth Program) enacted in 
the FY 2012-2018 appropriation acts, which consolidated four previously 
authorized and appropriated programs into one comprehensive program. 
The four programs included in these consolidations were: Services to 
Advocate for and Respond to Youth (Youth Services), Grants to Assist 
Children and Youth Exposed to Violence (CEV), Engaging Men and Youth in 
Preventing Domestic Violence (EMY), and Supporting Teens through 
Education and Prevention (STEP).
    The Consolidated Youth Program supports projects designed to 
provide coordinated community responses that support child, youth and 
young adult victims through direct services, training, coordination and 
collaboration, effective intervention, treatment, response, and 
prevention strategies. The Consolidated Youth Program creates a unique 
opportunity for communities to increase collaboration among non-profit 
victim service providers; violence prevention, and children (0-10), 
youth (11-18), young adult (19-24) and men-serving organizations; 
tribes and tribal governments; local government agencies; schools; and 
programs that support men's role in combating sexual assault, domestic 
violence, dating violence and stalking.
    (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 25 respondents (grantees 
from the Consolidated Youth Program) 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 Consolidated Youth 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 50 hours, that is 25 grantees completing a form 
twice a year with an estimated completion time for the form being one 
hour.
