SUBJECT : Request for OMB Approval of the Application Package for Grants

Under the Child Care Access Means Parents in School Program (OMB 1840-0737)

The Office of Postsecondary Education requests that you submit for Departmental and OMB approval, the application package for grants under the Child Care Access Means Parents in School (CCAMPIS) Program. The application package will be used to collect information to be used during the competitive cycle of the Program as required by the program legislation. The current CCAMPIS Program application package was allowed to lapse. This allowed the preparation of an application package that is consistent with the changes necessitated by the passage of the Higher Education Opportunity Act of 2008 (HEOA).

The revised information collection will also be more closely adaptable to the Government Performance and Results Act (GPRA) performance measure results, as required by law. The attached Form OMB 83-1 and supporting documents are being submitted as required.

Please review the attached information package at your earliest convenience. For additional information please contact J. Alexander Hamilton at 202-502-7583 or by email at Josephine.Hamilton@ed.gov or Dorothy Marshall at 202-502-7734 or by email at Dorothy.Marshall@ed.gov.
