Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request

    Title: Voluntary Surveys of Program Partners to Implement Executive 
Order 12862 in the Administration for Children and Families.
    OMB No.: 0980-0266.
    Description: Under the provisions of the Federal Paperwork 
Reduction Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104-13), the Administration for Children 
and Families (ACF) is requesting clearance for instruments to implement 
Executive Order 12862 within the ACF. The purpose of the data 
collection is to obtain customer satisfaction information from those 
entities who are funded to be our partners in the delivery of services 
to the American public. ACF partners are those entities that receive 
funding to deliver services or assistance from ACF programs. Examples 
of partners are States and local governments, territories, service 
providers, Indian Tribes and tribal organizations, grantees, 
researchers, or other intermediaries serving target populations 
identified by and funded directly or indirectly by ACF. The surveys 
will obtain information about how well ACF is meeting the needs of our 
partners in operating the ACF programs.
    Respondents: State, Local, Tribal Govt. or Not-for-Profit.
