The RSA-911 is used to collect individual level data on State Vocational Rehabilitation (VR) program participants on a quarterly basis. The data collected in this report are manadated by section 101(a)(10) and 607 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 (Act), as amended by title IV of the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) and section 116(d) of WIOA. In addition, RSA uses data reported through this data collection to support its other responsibilities under the Act. Section 14(a) of the Act calls for the evaluation of programs authorized under the Act, as well as an assessment of the programs’ effectiveness in relation to cost. Many of these evaluation studies have utilized RSA-911 data. RSA also uses data captured through the RSA-911 during the conduct of both the annual review and periodic onsite monitoring of VR agencies required by section 107 of the Act to examine the effectiveness of program performance. Other important management activities, such as the provision of technical assistance, program planning, and budget preparation and development, are greatly enhanced through the use of RSA-911 data. In addition, RSA uses RSA-911 data in the exchange of data under a data sharing agreement with the Social Security Administration as required by section 131 of the Act. Finally, the RSA-911 is considered to be one of the most robust databases in describing the demographics of the disabled population in the country and as such is used widely in researchers’ disability-related analyses and reports. The revisions to this instrument include the removal of duplicative data elements as well as those not specifically required by statute or used for statutorily required activities. RSA is proposing to remove 94 elements from the current collection. RSA proposed the addition of 14 elements, 6 of which are related to adding a new service to track VR participant participation in Apprenticeships and Work Based Learning Experiences. RSA is also adding some elements at the request of VR agencies(e.g., Date of Initial IPE and Date of IPE Extension).

There is a program decrease in reporting burden hours of 1,872 hours per VR agency. There is a program change due to agency discretion resulting in an estimated startup cost of $16,046 to the Department. The VR agencies will experience an estimated startup cost of $263,664 to make necessary changes to case management systems. Major program changes include, but are not limited to: A. Removing unnecessary post-exit data elements; B. Removing duplicative education data elements; C. Removing duplicative employment outcome elements; D. Removing the requirement to report comparable benefits for pre-employment transition services; E. Streamlining process for reporting public support and medical insurance coverage at application and exit; F. Removing unnecessary career, training, and other services data elements for reporting title VI expenditures; G. Adding “Apprenticeship Training and other Work Based Learning Experience” as a training service. VR agencies serving individuals who are blind and visually impaired and VR agencies serving all other individuals with disabilities in two States combined between 2016 and 2018, resulting in a reduction in the number of agencies required to report RSA-911 to 78. The total burden and responses is 34,446 hours and 78 responses.
