This information collection request is
the application for HRSA's Maternal, Infant, and Early Childhood
Home Visiting Program, which is designed: (1) to strengthen and
improve the programs and activities carried out under Title V; (2)
to improve coordination of services for at risk communities; and
(3) to identify and provide comprehensive services to improve
outcomes for families who reside in at risk communities.
HRSA is requesting
emergency processing procedures for the FY 2011 Competitive FOA
because the applications for FY 2011 funding must be submitted and
reviewed before the expiration of the normal time limits under
regulations at 5 CFR Part 1320 and to ensure that successful
applicants receive funding before the beginning of the 2011 fiscal
year. The Fiscal Year 2011 Competitive FOA must be made available
in May 2011, to allow states the requisite time needed to plan and
implement programs likely to achieve the legislatively mandated
benchmarks for demonstrating improvements among eligible families
participating in the states' home visiting programs. Emergency
processing is necessary because of the critical timing of this
request for grantees.
