Shape1 TITLE OF INFORMATION COLLECTION: Office of Refugee Resettlement Services to Afghan Survivors of Combat Program Performance Data Point Tool & User Guide


PURPOSE: The Services to Afghan Survivors of Combat (SASIC) grant program is a one-time, three-year program funded by the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) Office of Refugee Resettlements (ORR). The SASIC program is designed to help Afghanistan Supplemental Appropriations Act (ASA)-eligible Afghan arrivals overcome the severe, pervasive, and long-lasting effects of combat-related trauma and to facilitate their achievement of sustained physical, social, emotional, and economic well-being. ORR collects performance-based data for programming at least annually over the three-year program period for all grant recipients. The SASIC specific tailored performance- based data point tool will collect useful data in a uniform and systematic manner. The reporting format allows programs to gather uniform program performance data from each recipient, allowing aggregation at the program level to calculate outputs and outcomes, providing a snapshot and allowing for longitudinal analysis, including comparative analyses across grantees and/or regions. Note that individual client level data is not requested. The SASIC user guide provides a generic description with instructions on how to use the SASIC-specific tailored performance- based data point tool including definitions and charts.

This information collection aligns with the overarching generic program specific activities, which specifically states that ACF will collect the information for:

  • demonstrating program successes and challenges,

  • program management and oversight for identifying technical assistance needs and ensuring compliance, as needed,

  • identifying additional needs for program guidance

  • development or updates to support for recipients

  • making informed refinements to programs

  • ensure recipients comply with program planning and design requirements


The proposed uses of the data also align with the overarching generic, which specifies that program offices will use information collected under this generic clearance to measure recipients’ performance and financial data under a risk management lens and ensure recipients comply with program planning and design requirements that are a new requirement for all FY23 funding opportunities.
