The Lifespan Respite Care Reauthorization Act of 2020, Section 2904, requires Lifespan Respite Care Program grantees to report data, information, and metrics for the purpose of program evaluation. Such data, information, and metrics are to be used to identify ââ¦effective programs and activities fundedâ¦â through ACLâs Lifespan Respite Care Program grants. The Administration for Community Livingâs (ACLâs) Office of Supportive and Caregiver Services aims to improve Lifespan Respite Care Program grantee performance measurement and tracking through a new quantitative grantee reporting tool.
The tool will allow ACL to meet the requirements stated in Section 2904 of the Lifespan Respite Care Reauthorization Act of 2020, by adding quantitative data elements in accordance with program reporting requirements. This tool will allow for more effective tracking of how federal funds are being used, including aggregate data on people served and program development toward stated goals. The results of this information collection will be used to assist ACLâs Office of Supportive and Caregiver Services to assess the performance of the Lifespan Respite Program grantees in improving the delivery and quality of respite services for family caregivers of children and adults of all ages with disabilities and chronic conditions. The grant reporting tool will be disseminated to all new Lifespan Respite Program grantees upon grant award. Specifically, the tool will collect information related to respite care services delivered, caregiver demographics, care recipient demographics, respite training, and lifespan respite program systems and providers.
This is a new data collection. There is a program change due to agency discretion that will add 480 annual burden hours and 80 annual responses (40 grantees with two annual responses per grantee).
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that 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).
