Senior Corps adopted new, required
performance measures for its programs beginning in Fiscal Year
2013. Under a separate information collection approval, two
Independent Living Performance Measures Surveys were cleared for
use by grantees of the Senior Companion Program (required) and the
RSVP Program (optional). This information collection requests adds
the surveys to the aggregation tool as additional instruments. The
Independent Living Performance Measures Aggregation Tool will serve
as the required template for grantees to use to provide two levels
of information: (1) A row on the spreadsheet template corresponding
to each individual client, without any personal information that
could identify the individual; and (2) aggregate project level
performance measures data for submission to CNCS.
US Code:
42 USC 12501 et seq Name of Law: National Community Service Law
of 1994 as amended
The burden has increased
because we have incorporated the instruments from a previously
cleared information collection request into this clearance for the
aggregation tool.

the collection of information encompassed by this request complies
with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR
1320.8(b)(3).
