    Title: Voluntary Surveys of Program Partners to Implement Executive 
Order 12862.
    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 (ACFR) is requesting clearance for instruments to 
implement Executive Order 12862 within ACF. The purpose of the data 
collection is to obtain customer satisfaction information from those 
entities who are funded to be ACF's 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 State 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 its 
partners in operating the programs.
    Respondents: State, local, Tribal governments or Not-for-profit 
organizations.
