Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request

    Title: Job Search Assistance (JSA) Strategies Evaluation.
    OMB No.: 0970-0440.
    Description: The Administration for Children and Families (ACF) is 
proposing a data collection activity as part of the Job Search 
Assistance (JSA) Strategies Evaluation. The JSA evaluation aims to 
determine which JSA strategies are most effective in moving TANF 
applicants and recipients into work. The impact study will randomly 
assign individuals to contrasting JSA approaches and then compare their 
employment and earnings to determine their relative effectiveness. The 
implementation study will describe services participants receive under 
each approach as well as provide operational lessons gathered directly 
from practitioners.
    Two data collection efforts have been previously approved for JSA, 
including one for data collection activities to document program 
implementation, to administer a staff survey and to collect baseline 
information of program participants. These collection activities will 
continue under this new request.
    This Federal Register Notice provides the opportunity to comment on 
a proposed new information collection activity for JSA: A follow-up 
survey for JSA participants approximately 6 months after program 
enrollment.
    The purpose of the survey is to follow-up with study participants 
and document their job search assistance services and experiences 
including their receipt of job search assistance services, their 
knowledge and skills for conducting a job search, the nature of their 
job search process, including tools and services used to locate 
employment, and their search outputs and outcomes, such as the number 
of applications submitted, interviews attended, offers received and 
jobs obtained. In addition, the survey will provide an opportunity for 
respondents to provide contact data for possible longer-term follow-up.
    Respondents: JSA study participants and program staff.
