Title VI Program Performance Report

A Program Performance Report on activities under Title VI of the Older Americans Act (OAA) is necessary for the Administration of Community Living (ACL) to monitor federal funds effectively and be informed as how programs may change over time. Grantees are required to submit an annual Program Performance Report to allow for efficient federal monitoring. Section 614(a)(3) of the OAA states that an applicant for a grant under Title VI Part A, Indian Program must report performance elements based on the services provided under the OAA. Section 202(a)(16)(A)(i)(ii)(iii) requires the collection and reporting of data in respect to each service or activity, and 45 CFR 75.342(b)(i) requires that grantees must submit reports on a timeline determined by HHS, and as such, ACL requires annual reports from Title VI grantees. ACL estimates an average of three and a half hours preparation time per report. The Program Performance Report provides data for ACL to: (1) monitor program achievement of performance objectives; (2) establish program policy and direction; and (3) prepare responses to Congress, OMB, and public and private agencies as required by the OAA Title II sections 202(a)19 and 207. These data are also used to prepare data for the Federal Interagency Task Force on Older Indians, established pursuant to section 134(d) of the 1987 Amendments to the OAA. If ACL did not collect the program data, it would not be able to monitor and manage total program progress as expected, nor develop program options directed toward assuring the most effective use of limited Title VI funds.
