The Administration for Children and Families' (ACF) Office of Planning, Research, and Evaluation (OPRE) is seeking public comments on a proposed plan to collect data from Sexual Risk Avoidance Education (SRAE) programs. This will help evaluate innovative strategies and improve outcomes for youth involved in these programs. The collection allows ACF to quickly gather and use data to enhance program effectiveness and understand the needs of the diverse youth populations they serve. The request also seeks comments on the necessity, accuracy, and burden of the information collection, as well as suggestions for minimizing the burden through technology.
Simple Explanation
The government wants to check how well programs that teach kids to be careful about taking risks are working by collecting information from these programs quickly. They also want to make sure the way they collect this information isn't too hard for the people involved and are asking for ideas on how to make it easier, like using technology.
