Abstract: The Runaway and Homeless Youth Act (RHYA), as amended by Public Law 106-71 (42 U.S.C. 5701 et seq.), mandates that the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) report regularly to Congress on the status of HHS-funded programs serving runaway and homeless youth. Organizations funded under the Runaway and Homeless Youth (RHY) program are required by Section 312 (b)(7) of the Statute to meet several data collection and reporting requirements. These requirements include maintenance of client statistical records and submission of annual program reports regarding the characteristics of the youth and families served and the services provided to them. (Attached as Exhibit 1 are the relevant sections of the statute and regulation mandating the collection of information.) The October, 2003, reauthorization of the Act maintained the requirements as described in the standing legislation.
