B of the Social Security Act (42 U.S.C.
629–629e) providing funding for a

children of prisoners not being served

of identified children with a voucher for
mentoring services and a list of quality

The Family and Youth Services Bureau
(FYSB) of the Administration for
Children and Families (ACF), United
States Department of Health and Human
Services, administers the MCP program.
The MCP program provides children
of prisoners with caring adult mentors,
supporting one-to-one mentoring
relationships. Research in other
populations has shown that such
relationships can lead to reductions in
risk behaviors and improvements in
academic, behavioral, and psychological
outcomes in children and youth.
Although the MCP program was
developed based on research
documenting the efficacy of mentoring
as a general intervention strategy, it is
not yet known if this particular
intervention yields positive outcomes
for the children of prisoners population.
Little is known about how mentoring
relationships work for these youth and
how effective mentoring relationships
for children of prisoners differ from
effective mentoring relationships for
other youth. In addition, little is known
about children of prisoners in general
and thus a survey of MCP program
youth has the potential to provide
important data about this relatively
unstudied population.
The evaluation and data collection
proposed in this notice are to fulfill the
statutory requirement under Section 8,
subsection h(l) of the Child and Family
Services Improvement Act of 2006, as
amended, that the Secretary of the
Department of Health and Human
Services evaluate outcomes of the MCP
service delivery demonstration project
and report to Congress on the findings.
The information collected will also be
used for accountability monitoring,
management improvement, and
research.
Data collection will ensure that
grantees know that mentoring
relationships are meeting the
established milestones and that
mentoring activities are faithful to
characteristics established by research
as essential to success. Data collected
will allow ACF to compare the MCP
service delivery demonstration project
with the MCP grant program. Data
collected will also support grantees as
they carry out ongoing responsibilities
and manage information for internal
use.
Respondents: Public, faith-based and
community organizations applying to
and implementing the MCP service
delivery demonstration project.
