The Administration for Children and Families (ACF) is seeking public comments on its proposal to extend data collection for research and evaluation under an existing clearance. The proposal does not change the types of information collected but anticipates an increase in the number of respondents, raising the overall burden estimate. Comments are invited within 30 days of publication. The data collected will support ACF's research on programs related to welfare, child care, and other areas to assist low-income families.
Simple Explanation
The Administration for Children and Families wants to keep collecting information to help low-income families and is asking more people to join in and tell them what they think. They're not changing what they ask but will have more people sharing their thoughts to understand better how people can be helped.
