Information Collection Request Title: Title X Family Planning
Annual Report.
Abstract: The Office of Population Affairs within the Office of the
Assistant Secretary for Health seeks to renew the currently approved
Family Planning Annual Report (FPAR) data collection and reporting tool
(OMB No. 0990-0221). This annual reporting requirement is for family
planning services delivery projects authorized and funded by the Title
X Family Planning Program [``Population Research and Voluntary Family
Planning Programs'' (Public Law 91-572)], which was enacted in 1970 as
Title X of the Public Health Service Act (Section 1001; 42 U.S.C. 300).
The FPAR data collection and reporting tool remains unchanged in this
request to renew OMB approval to collect essential, annual data from
Title X grantees.
Need and Proposed Use of the Information: The Title X Family
Planning Program (``Title X program'' or ``program'') is the only
Federal grant program dedicated solely to providing individuals with
comprehensive family planning and related preventive health services
(e.g., screening for breast and cervical cancer, sexually transmitted
diseases (STDs), and human immunodeficiency virus). By law, priority is
given to persons from low-income families (Section 1006[c] of Title X
of the Public Health Service Act, 42 U.S.C. 300). The Office of
Population Affairs (OPA) within the Office of the Assistant Secretary
for Health administers the Title X program.
Annual submission of the FPAR is required of all Title X family
planning services grantees for purposes of monitoring and reporting
program performance (45 CFR part 74 and 45 CFR part 92). The FPAR is
the only source of annual, uniform reporting by all grantees funded
under Section 1001 of the Title X Public Health Service Act. The FPAR
provides consistent, national-level data on the Title X Family Planning
program and its users that allow OPA to assemble comparable and
relevant program data to answer questions about the characteristics of
the population served, use of services offered, composition of revenues
that complement Title X funds, and impact of the program on key health
outcomes.
Likely Respondents: Respondents for this annual reporting
requirement are centers that receive funding directly from OPA for
family planning services authorized and funded under the Title X Family
Planning Program [``Population Research and Voluntary Family Planning
Programs'' (Pub. L. 91-572)], which was enacted in 1970 as Title X of
the Public Health Service Act (Section 1001 of Title X of the Public
Health Service Act, 42 United States Code [U.S.C.] 300).

the agency's functions, (2) the accuracy of the estimated burden, (3)
ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected, and (4) the use of automated collection techniques or

collection burden.
