Abstract:
This request is for a reinstatement with changes to a previously approved information collection. At the conclusion of the previous approved collection, Executive Order 13903 Strengthening the Child Welfare System for America’s Children was issued June 24, 2020, resulting in a redesign of this collection of information. The Children’s Bureau has taken time to redesign the data collection materials. This request is for review and approval of those materials.

Short Statement:
We have adjusted the number of respondents per year from 14 states to 13 based on the schedule projections for the Round 4 CFSR. In addition, we removed two information collections previously part of this request -- one for Title IV-E Eligibility Review Program Improvement Plans and one for corrective action plans under the Multi-Ethnic Placement Act. These information collections were unrelated to the CFSR and if necessary, will be submitted in the future as stand-alone information collections.
