Enhanced Services for the Hard-toEmploy Demonstration and Evaluation:
Philadelphia 36-Month Data Collection.
OMB No.: New Collection.
Description: The Enhanced Services
for the Hard-to-Employ Demonstration
and Evaluation Project (HtE) seeks to
learn what services improve the
employment prospects of low-income
persons who face serious obstacles to
steady work. The project is sponsored
by the Office of Planning, Research and

Evaluation (OPRE) within the
Administration for Children and
Families (ACF) and the Office of the
Assistant Secretary for Planning and
Evaluation (ASPE), both within the U.S.
Department of Health and Human
Services (HHS), and the U.S.
Department of Labor (DOL).
The HtE project is a multi-year, multisite evaluation that employs an
experimental longitudinal research
design to test four strategies aimed at
promoting employment among hard-toemploy populations. The four include:
(1) Intensive care management and job
services program for Rhode Island
Medicaid recipients with serious
depression; (2) job readiness training,
worksite placements, job coaching, job
development and other training
opportunities for recent parolees in New
York City; (3) pre-employment services
and transitional employment for longterm participants receiving Temporary
Assistance for Needy Families (TANF);
and (4) two-generational Early Head
Start (EHS) services providing enhanced
self-sufficiency services for parents,
parent skills training, and high-quality
child care for children in low-income
families in Kansas and Missouri.
The purpose of the current document
is to request public comment on the 36month participant survey in
Philadelphia. The research team plans
to collect participant-reported surveys
assessing participants’ employment,
education and economic outcomes,
participation in employment and
training services, receipt of benefits and
services such as food stamps and mental
health services, housing and household
information, health and health care
coverage, child care, and child
outcomes.
The follow-up survey at the 36-month
follow-up in Philadelphia will be used
for the following purposes: To study the
extent to which pre-employment
services and transitional employment
affect employment, earnings, income,
and welfare dependence of low-income
TANF recipients; to examine the
impacts of these services on
participants’ health, receipt of benefits
such as food stamps, Medicaid, and
child-care subsidies, and participation
in services such as substance abuse
treatment and mental health services;
and to collect data on a wider range of
outcomes measures than is available
through welfare, Medicaid, Food
Stamps, Social Security, and
Unemployment Insurance records.
The 36-month data collection effort
draws heavily from the 15-month survey
conducted in this site. Materials for the
15-month data collection effort were
previously submitted to OMB and were
approved (OMB Control No. 0970-0276).
Respondents: TANF recipients
without a high school diploma and/or
recipients who have received TANF for
at least 12 months.
The fielded sample of the 36-month
data collection effort will be all 1,944
participants in the two program groups
and the control group of the HtE project
in Philadelphia. The burden estimates
below assume an 80 percent response
rate of the fielded sample.
The annual burden estimates are
detailed below, and the substantive
content of each component will be
detailed in the supporting statement
attached to this 30-day notice.
