SUMMARY:
A. Overview of Information Collection
Title of Information Collection: The
Impact of Housing and Services
Interventions on Homeless Families-36month Follow-up Data Collection.
OMB Approval Number: 2528–0259.
Type of Request: Revision of a
currently approved collection.

Sfmt 4703
3849
Month Head of Household Follow-up
Survey Instrument and the 36-Month
Child Data Collection Instruments will
support the collection of data from
families enrolled in the Family Options
Study. The Family Options Study,
formerly referred to as The Impact of
Housing and Services Interventions on
Homeless Families, was launched by
HUD in 2008 in response to Senate
Report 109–109 for the FY 2006
Transportation, Treasury, the Judiciary,
Housing and Urban Development and
Related Agencies Appropriations Bill,
which directed the HUD to ‘‘undertake
research to ascertain the impact of
various service and housing
interventions in ending homelessness
for families.’’ The Family Options Study
is comparing several combinations of
housing assistance and services in a
rigorous, multi-site experiment to
determine which interventions work
best to promote housing stability, family
preservation, child well-being, adult
well-being, and self-sufficiency.
Between 2010 and 2012, over 2,300
families in twelve communities enrolled
in the study. Prior rounds of data
collection from the adult head of
household have been conducted at the
point of study enrollment/random
assignment, and eighteen (18) months
following the date of study enrollment/
random assignment. Extensive data
collection from a sample of children
within study families has also been
conducted by the research team with
funding from the Eunice Kennedy
Shriver National Institute of Child
Health and Human Development
(NICHD). This next phase of data
collection in the Family Options Study
will support the continued collection of
data from study families 36 months
following the date of study enrollment/
random assignment. Given the length of
time which families are eligible to
remain in the interventions being tested
(one of the four interventions being
studied can serve families for up to 18months, and a second can serve families
for up to 24 months), this final wave of
data is critical to understanding how
families fare after an intervention ends,
and whether the same interventions that
are effective in the short-term (18
months), are also effective in the longerterm (36 months).
Respondents (i.e. affected public):
Study households.
Estimation of the total number of
hours needed to prepare the information
collection, including the number of
respondents, frequency of response, and
hours of responses:
