Abstract: The Objective Work Plan (OWP) information collection is conducted in accordance with 42 USC of the Native American Programs Act of 1972, as amended. This collection is necessary to evaluate applications for financial assistance and determine the relative merits of the projects for which such assistance is requested, as set forth in Sec. 806 [42 USC 2991d-1](a)(1). The Ongoing Progress Report (OPR) information collection is conducted in accordance with Sec. 811 [42 USC 2992] of the Native American Programs Act and will allow the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) Administration for Native American (ANA) to report quantifiable results across all program areas. It also provides grantees with parameters for reporting their progress and helps ANA better monitor and determine the effectiveness of their projects. This request is to extend approval of the OWP and the OPR for an additional three years. No changes are proposed.
