Proposed Information Collection Activity; Comment Request

    Title: Implementation Grants to Develop a Model Intervention for 
Youth/Young Adults with Child Welfare Involvement at Risk of 
Homelessness: Phase II.
    Description: The Administration for Children and Familes (ACF) at 
the U.S.

[[Page 78161]]

Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) intends to collect data 
for an evaluation of the initiative, Implementation Grants to Develop a 
Model Intervention for Youth/Young Adults with Child Welfare 
Involvement at Risk of Homelessness: Phase II. This builds on the 
previously approved ``Planning Grants to Develop a Model Intervention 
for Youth/Young Adults with Child Welfare Involvement at Risk of 
Homelessness'' (Phase I). Phase II is an initiative, funded by the 
Children's Bureau (CB) within ACF, that will support implementation 
grants for interventions designed to intervene with youth who have 
experienced time in foster care and are most likely to have a 
challenging transition into adulthood, including homelessness and 
unstable housing experiences. CB awarded six implementation grants 
(Phase II) in September 2015. During the implementation phase, 
organizations will conduct a range of activities to fine-tune their 
comprehensive service model, determine whether their model is being 
implemented as intended, and develop plans to evaluate the model under 
a potential future funding opportunity (Phase III). During Phase II, 
ACF will engage a contractor to: Conduct a cross-site process 
evaluation. Data collected for the process evaluation will be used to 
assess grantees' organizational capacity to implement and evaluate the 
model interventions and to monitor each grantee's progress toward 
achieving the goals of the implementation period.
    Data for the process evaluation will be collected through: 
Interviews during site visits.
    Respondents: Grantee agency directors and staff; partner agency 
directors and staff. Partner agencies may vary by site, but are 
expected to include child welfare, mental health, and youth housing/
homelessness agencies.
