Abstract: Section 650 of the Head Start Act (42 U.S.C. 9846) requires that the Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) prepare and submit a report to the Congress at least once during every 2-year period. Section 641A of the Head Start Act of 2007 (42 U.S.C. 9836A) requires that the Office of Head Start (OHS) collect enrollment information from grant recipients on a monthly basis to determine whether grant recipients maintain their funded enrollment. Section 644 of the Head Start Act (42 U.S.C. 9839) requires each Head Start agency to make available to the public a report published at least once in each fiscal year. OHS is requesting an extension, with changes, of the Head Start Program Information Report information collection authority. The following instruments are included in this information collection: (1) the Program Information Report Form (PIR), (2) monthly enrollment, and (3) center locations and contacts.
