    Title: Cross-Site Evaluation of the Infant Adoption Awareness 
Training Program for Projects Initially Funded in Fiscal Year 2006-NEW.
    OMB No.: New Collection.
    Description: The Administration for Children and Families (ACF), 
Childrens Bureau (CB), will conduct the Cross-Site Evaluation of the 
Infant Adoption Awareness Training Program (IAATP). Title XII, Subtitle 
A, of the Childrens Health Act of 2000 (CHA) authorizes the Department 
of Health and Human Services to make Infant Adoption Awareness Training 
grants available to national, regional, and local adoption 
organizations for the purposes of developing and implementing programs 
that train the staff of public and non-profit private health service 
organizations to provide adoption information and referrals to pregnant 
women on an equal basis with all other courses of action included in 
non-directive counseling of pregnant women. Participants in the 
training include individuals who provide pregnancy or adoption 
information and those who will provide such services after receiving 
the training, with Title X (relating to voluntary family planning 
projects), Section 330 (relating to community health centers, migrant 
health centers, and centers serving homeless individuals and residents 
of public housing), and CHA-funded school-based health centers, 
receiving priority to receive the training. A total of six 
organizations were awarded IAATP funding in 2006.
    Section 1201(a)(2)(A) of the IAATP legislation requires grantees to 
develop and deliver trainings that are consistent with the Best 
Practice Guidelines for Infant Adoption Awareness Training. The IAATP 
guidelines address training goals, basic skills, curriculum and 
training structure. A complete description of the guidelines is 
available at https://www.acf.hhs.gov/programs/cb/programs_fund/
discretionary/iaatp.htm.
    In addition, grantees are required to conduct local evaluation of 
program outcomes and participate in the national evaluation of the 
extent to which IAATP training objectives are met. The Infant Adoption 
Awareness Training Program: Trainee Survey is the primary data 
collection instrument for the national cross-site evaluation. 
Respondents will complete the survey prior to receiving training and 
approximately 90 days after the training to assess the extent to which 
trainees demonstrate sustained gains in their knowledge about adoption, 
and to determine the impact of the training on their subsequent work 
with pregnant women.
    1. Do health care workers who participate in the IAATP training: 
Demonstrate enhanced knowledge, attitudes, skills, and behaviors with 
respect to adoption counseling following completion of the program? 
Provide adoption information to pregnant women on an equal basis with 
other pregnancy planning options? Demonstrate enhanced awareness of 
community adoption-related resources and refer expectant mothers to 
them as needed?

planning options (parenting, abortion, and adoption) in a non-directive

evaluation data will be collected on an annual basis throughout the
