Title: Personal Responsibility Education Program (PREP) Multi-
Component Evaluation--Data Collection Related to the Design and
Implementation Study.
OMB No.: 0970-0398.
Description: The Office of Data Analysis, Research, and Evaluation
(HHS/ACF/ACYF/ODARE) in the Administration for Children, Youth and
Families (ACYF) and the Office of Planning, Research, and Evaluation
(HHS/ACF/OPRE) in the Administration for Children and Families (ACF)
propose a data collection activity as part of the Personal
Responsibility Education Program (PREP) Multi-Component Evaluation.
The goals of the PREP Multi-Component Evaluation are to document
how PREP programs are designed and implemented in the field, collect
performance measure data for PREP programs, and assess the
effectiveness of selected PREP-funded programs.
The PREP Multi-Component Evaluation contains three components: The
``Design and Implementation Study,'' the ``Performance Analysis
Study,'' and the ``Impact and In-Depth Implementation Study.'' This
notice is specific to data collection activities for the implementation
portion of the Design and Implementation Study.
The goals of this portion of the study are to document how States
and sub-awardees actually implemented their PREP programs, given their
program designs. In order to meet this goal, both State PREP
Administrators and a selection of sub-awardee program providers will be
interviewed. The interviews will be used to understand important
aspects of implementation, such as training, technical assistance and
program fidelity monitoring.
Respondents: State grantee staff; State training and technical
assistance staff; State program evaluator staff program providers.
