Porter Chairman, Subcommittee on Labor, Health and Human Services, and Education Committee on Appropriations House of Representatives Dear Mr. Chairman: This letter responds to your request for information on potential opportunities for consolidating programs in the Children and Families Services Programs (CFSP) budget account, administered by the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) in the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) . The CFSP account contained 29 grant programs in fiscal year 1994 aimed primarily at enhancing the well-being of the nation's disadvantaged or troubled children and families, with a total spending level of about $4.7 billion. More specifically, this letter contains information on (1) the CFSP budget account's programs and congressional and administration actions and other opportunities to consolidate the CFSP account's programs. As you requested, our identification of other consolidation opportunities did not include consideration of the account's largest program, Head Start, which spent about $3.3 billion in fiscal year 1994. To perform our work, we reviewed legislative and executive branch documents, interviewed ACF officials familiar with the CFSP account's programs, and undertook our own analysis of the programs with a view toward gaining an understanding of the commonalities and differences among the programs. We obtained much of the descriptive information from the Cataloa of Federal Domestic Assistance for 1994 and the Budaet of the United States Government, Fiscal Year 1996: ADendix. Our work was performed from March through July of 1995 in accordance with-generally accepted government auditing standards. ii//S GAO/EEHS-95-191R Children and Families Services Program
