Submission for OMB Review;
Comment Request
Title: Mentoring Children of Prisoners
Relationship Quality Survey.
OMB No.: 0970–0308.
Description: The Promoting Safe and
Stable Families Amendments of 2001
(Pub. L. 107–133) amended Title IV–B
of the Social Security Act (42 U.S.C.
629–629e) to provide funding for
nonprofit agencies that recruit, screen,
train, and support mentors for children
with an incarcerated parent or parents.
The Family and Youth Services Bureau
(FYSB) of the Administration for
Children and Families, United States
Department of Health and Human
Services, administers the Monitoring
Children of Prisoners (MCP) program.
The MCP program creates lasting, highquality one-to-one mentoring
relationships that provide young people
with caring adult role models. The
quality of these relationships is an
important indicator of success in
mentoring programs. Previous research
has shown an association between highquality mentoring relationships and
positive changes in youth behavior
associated with positive youth benefits,
such as improved school attendance,
