Overview of This Information Collection

    (1) Type of Information Collection: Extension of a currently 
approved collection.
    (2) Title of the Form/Collection: Semi-Annual Progress Report for 
the Grants to Indian Tribal Governments Program (Tribal Governments 
Program).
    (3) Agency form number, if any, and the applicable component of the 
Department of Justice sponsoring the collection: Form Number: 1122-
0018. 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 85 grantees of the Grants to Indian Tribal Governments 
Program (Tribal Governments Program), a grant program authorized by the 
Violence Against Women Act of 2005, as amended. This discretionary 
grant program is designed to enhance the ability of tribes to respond 
to violent crimes against Indian women, enhance victim safety, and 
develop education and prevention strategies. Eligible applicants are 
recognized Indian tribal governments or their authorized designees.

its own specific activities.

with the collection: The total annual hour burden to complete the data 
collection forms is 170 hours, that is 85 grantees completing a form
