Abstract: According to the annual reporting requirements for SSBG, in the Fed. Reg., Vol. 58, No. 218, on November 15, 1993, States are required to report their annual SSBG expenditures on a standard post-expenditure report. Approval is being sought for an extension for continued use of the post-expenditure report form with no changes. Data collected are analyzed and published in an annual report on SSBG expenditures and recipients produced by the Office of Community Services.
