Abstract:
The Children’s Bureau (CB), Administration for Children and Families (ACF), U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), is proposing to establish a new overarching generic clearance to collect information to assess regulatory requirements of title IV-E agencies’ CCWIS and ensure that the CCWIS is utilized for purposes consistent with the efficient, economical, and effective administration of the title IV-B and IV-E plans per 45 CFR 1355.52(a). Flexibility is needed to support title IV-E agencies use of Technical Assistance (TA) tools quickly and in direct response to emerging technology needs and changing program requirements. This generic clearance will allow CB to pilot tools and provide support to IV-E agencies who choose to use them. Continuous feedback and ongoing dialogue will assist IV-E agencies in building capacity and identifying risk areas as technology systems are developed. The pilot process of using the TA tools will support improvement efforts and ultimately inform the development of a future CCWIS compliance review process.
