public and affected agencies concerning the proposed collection of

methodology and assumptions used;

be collected; and

Overview of This Information Collection

    (1) Type of Information Collection: Extension of a currently 
approved collection.
    (2) Title of the Form/Collection: Campus Program Grantee Needs and 
Progress Assesment Tool.
    (3) Agency form number, if any, and the applicable component of the 
Department of Justice sponsoring the collection: Form Number: 1122-
0031. 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 current grantees 
under the Grants to Reduce Sexual Assault, Domestic Violence, Dating 
Violence, and Stalking on Campus Program. The Campus Program 
strengthens the response of institutions of higher education to the 
crimes of sexual assault, domestic violence, dating violence and 
stalking on campuses and enhances collaboration among campuses, local 
law enforcement, and victim advocacy organizations. Eligible applicants 
are institutions of higher education. The affected public includes the 
approximately 100 institutions of higher education currently funded 
through the Campus program.
    The Grantee Needs and Progress Assessment Tool will be used to 
determine the training and technical assistance needs of Campus Program 
grantees--both new and continuation grantees--throughout the life of 
the grant award as well measure the development of the capacity of 
grantees to respond and prevent violence against women on their 
campuses. In addition, the tool will help campuses and OVW document the 
impact of their grant-funded work, promote sustainability of important 
intervention and prevention activities, and provide outcome-based 
information throughout the life of the grant to help OVW-funded 
technical assistance providers and grantees make changes to the goals 
and objectives necessary to achieve the Congressional purpose of the 
Campus Program.
    (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 100 respondents (Campus 
Program grantees) approximately 30 minutes 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 Justice for Families 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 140 hours, that is 70 grantees completing a form 
twice a year with an estimated completion time for the form being one 
hour.
