    Title: Children, Youth, and Families at Risk (CYFAR) Year End 
Report.
    OMB Control Number: 0524-0043.
    Summary of Collection: Funding for the Children, Youth, and 
Families at Risk (CYFAR) is authorized under section 3(d) of the Smith-
Lever Act (7 U.S.C. 341 et seq.), as amended and other relevant 
authorizing legislation, which provides jurisdictional basis for the 
establishment and operation of extension educational work for the 
benefit of youth and families in communities. The CYFAR funding program 
supports community-based programs serving children, youth, and families 
in at risk environments. CYFAR funds are intended to support the 
development of high quality, effective programs based on research and 
to document the impact of these programs on intended audiences which 
are children, youth, and families in at-risk environments.
    Need and Use of the Information: The purpose of the CYFAR Year End 
Report is to collect the demographic and impact data from each 
community site in order to evaluate the impact of the programs on 
intended audiences. Data from the CYFAR annual reports helps National 
Program Leaders at the National Institute of Food and Agriculture 
(NIFA) to refine and improve program focus and effectiveness in the 
delivery of these funds. The CYFAR data is also used to respond to 
requests for impact information from Congress, the White House, and 
other Federal agencies. Without the information NIFA would not be able 
to verify if CYFAR programs are reaching at risk, low-income audiences.
    Description of Respondents: State, Local or Tribal Government.
    Number of Respondents: 51.
    Frequency of Responses: Reporting: Annually.
    Total Burden Hours: 16,422.
