*Abstract:* Sexual Assault Services Program—Grants to Culturally Specific Programs (SASP-CSP) funding is awarded to nonprofit organizations that focus primarily on culturally specific communities and that have experience in the area of sexual assault or who partner with an organization having such expertise. SASP-CSP funds are used to establish, maintain, and expand sustainable, culturally appropriate services that address the unique needs and challenges of victims of sexual assault from culturally specific communities. The grant funds are distributed to grantees as outlined under the provisions of the Violence Against Women Act, 34 U.S.C. 12511(c).
**Overview of This Information Collection**
1. *Type of Information Collection:* Extension of a currently approved collection.
2. *Title of the Form/Collection:* Semi-Annual Progress Report for Grantees from the Sexual Assault Services Program—Grants to Culturally Specific Programs (SASP-CSP).

4. *Affected public who will be asked or required to respond, as well as a brief abstract:* The affected public includes the approximately 23 grantees of the SASP Culturally Specific Program. This program supports projects that create, maintain and expand sustainable sexual assault services provided by culturally specific organizations, which are uniquely situated to respond to the needs of sexual assault victims within culturally specific populations.
5. *An estimate of the total number of respondents and the amount of time estimated for an average respondent to respond/reply:* It is estimated that it will take the approximately 23 respondents (SASP-CSP grantees) approximately one hour to complete a semi-annual progress report.

A SASP-CSP grantee will only be required to complete the sections of the form that pertain to its own specific activities.
6. *An estimate of the total public burden (in hours) associated with the collection:* The total annual hour burden to complete the data collection forms is 46 hours, that is 23 grantees completing a form twice a year with an estimated completion time for the form being one hour.
