The collection of Agency File information is estimated to average 93 hours per response, including the time for reviewing instructions, gathering and maintaining the data needed, and reviewing the collection of information. An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number.

SECTION 1. PREVENTIVE SERVICES


1.1 Children and Families Who Received Preventive Services From the State - FFY2005


Enter the number of children or number of families who received services aimed at preventing child abuse and neglect during the year. These services may be directed at specific populations identified as being at increased risk of becoming abusive and may be designed to increase the strength and stability of families, to increase parents’ confidence and competence in their parenting abilities, and to afford children a stable and supportive environment. To the extent practicable, indicate the funding sources for the number of children and families receiving preventive services.


Note: The items in this section request data on recipients of preventive services by various funding sources. For each funding source, the number of children and the number of families is requested. The two possibilities are provided since some programs report by "family" and other report by "child." In answering these questions, you should not duplicate your counts. In other words, if under CAPTA you served 1,000 families in which there were 3,000 children, you would report 3,000 children and nothing for families. On the other hand, if you funded 5 programs under CAPTA and two reported in terms of children and three in terms of families, you would enter the total number of children reported by the two programs in the Children items below and the total number of families reported by the three programs in the Family items below.
