Title: Permanency Innovations
Initiative Evaluation: Phase 3.
OMB No.: 0970–0408.
Description: The Administration for
Children and Families (ACF), U.S.
Department of Health and Human
Services (HHS) intends to collect data
for an evaluation of the Permanency
Innovations Initiative (PII). This 5-year
initiative, funded by the Children’s
Bureau (CB) within ACF, is intended to
build the evidence base for innovative
interventions that enhance well-being
and improve permanency outcomes for
particular groups of children and youth
who are at risk for long-term foster care
and who experience the most serious
barriers to timely permanency.
Data collection for the PII evaluation
includes a number of components being
launched at different points in time.
Phase 1 (approved August 2012, OMB#
0970–0408) included data collection for
a cross-site implementation evaluation
and site-specific evaluations of two PII
grantees (Washoe County, Nevada, and
the State of Kansas). Phase 2 (approved
August 2013) included data collection
for two more PII grantees (Illinois DCFS
and one of two interventions offered by
the Los Angeles Gay and Lesbian
Center’s Recognize Intervene Support
Empower [RISE] project).
Phase 3 will include data collection
for evaluations of two PII grantee
interventions and two additional crosssite PII studies. The two grantee
interventions are the California
Department of Social Services’
California Partnership for Permanency
(CAPP) project and a second RISE
intervention, the Care Coordination
Team (CCT). The two PII cross-site
studies are a cost study and an
administrative data study. The
administrative data study does not
impose any new data collection
requirements and will use data
currently reported by states through the
Adoption and Foster Care Analysis and
Reporting System (AFCARS) (OMB
Control # 0980–0267) and the National
Child Abuse and Neglect Data System
(NCANDS) (OMB Control # 0980–0229),
as well as data maintained in State
Automated Child Welfare Information
Systems (SACWIS).
Respondents: Youth, foster parents,
permanency resources, biological
parents, legal guardians, team
facilitators, caseworkers, supervisors,
and state agency workers.
