OMB No.: New Collection. Description: The Children’s Bureau (CB), Administration for Children and Families (ACF), U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) is proposing new or expanded data collection activities as part of its Evaluation of Child Welfare Information Gateway. Child Welfare Information Gateway (CWIG) is a national information clearinghouse and service of the Children’s Bureau, Administration for Children and Families, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. CWIG connects professionals and concerned citizens to resources and information on programs, research, legislation, and statistics regarding child maltreatment, child abuse prevention, and child welfare services designed to achieve the safety, permanency, and well-being of children and families. The Evaluation of Child Welfare Information Gateway gathers information to inform the Children’s Bureau about the kind and quality of information services that customers want, how customers are using resources and services, as well as customers’ level of satisfaction with existing services. The Market Research Sub-Study complements information obtained from the larger Evaluation of Child Welfare Information Gateway. The Children’s Bureau seeks to learn more about how child welfare professionals and students planning to enter the child welfare workforce access and consume workrelated information. This national study will focus on understanding child welfare professionals’ and students’ characteristics, use of technology, and preferences for obtaining information that they use in their work. The goal of the sub-study is to provide federallyfunded technical assistance providers and other stakeholder organizations with a better understanding of their target audiences so they can design more effective products, services, and dissemination strategies to reach these populations. Data collection activities proposed for the Evaluation of Child Welfare Information Gateway include: six online targeted surveys designed to evaluate CWIG’s special initiative websites and other targeted website sections; five online event surveys administered after CWIG-sponsored webinars, presentations, or other events; five focus groups (each with approximately 10 participants) with users and non-users of CWIG’s special initiative websites and other CWIG products and services; and, a general customer survey delivered via multiple modes (e.g., website, email, live chat, print, and phone). The sampling plan for the CWIG general customer survey is designed to reach the various types of customers using Child Welfare Information Gateway services such as professionals, students, and customers looking for assistance with a personal situation while reducing burden for respondents by only asking relevant questions for their backgrounds. The market research sub-study seeks to deliver surveys and conduct focus groups to gauge online information habits and preferences. The proposed market research sub-study will consist of a national online survey of child welfare professionals and students, which will be administered through four different instruments tailored for four different populations. Ten focus groups (each with 8 to 10 participants) will be used to learn more about different audiences’ habits and preferences related to child welfare information access and consumption. Respondents: The Evaluation of Child Welfare Information Gateway will target all types of possible CWIG users including: State and local governments, the territories, service providers, Tribes and tribal organizations, grantees, researchers, and the general public seeking information and resources from Child Welfare Information Gateway via the website, mail, telephone, Live Chat, and email. The Market Research SubStudy will target child welfare professionals in state, county, tribal, and private agencies; Court Improvement Program coordinators and directors; judges and attorneys involved in child welfare-related work; and students in Bachelor’s and Master’s degree programs in social work that receive Title IV–E or IV–B stipends.

Proposed Information Collection Activity; Comment Request

    Proposed Projects:
    Title: The Evaluation of Child Welfare Information Gateway.
    OMB No.: New Collection.
    Description: The Children's Bureau (CB), Administration for 
Children and Families (ACF), U.S. Department of Health and Human 
Services (HHS) is proposing new or expanded data collection activities 
as part of its Evaluation of Child Welfare Information Gateway.
    Child Welfare Information Gateway (CWIG) is a national information 
clearinghouse and service of the Children's Bureau, Administration for 
Children and Families, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. 
CWIG connects professionals and concerned citizens to resources and 
information on programs, research, legislation, and statistics 
regarding child maltreatment, child abuse prevention, and child welfare 
services designed to achieve the safety, permanency, and well-being of 
children and families. The Evaluation of Child Welfare Information 
Gateway gathers information to inform the Children's Bureau about the 
kind and quality of information services that customers want, how 
customers are using resources and services, as well as customers' level 
of satisfaction with existing services.
    The Market Research Sub-Study complements information obtained from 
the larger Evaluation of Child Welfare Information Gateway. The 
Children's Bureau seeks to learn more about how child welfare 
professionals and students planning to enter the child welfare 
workforce access and consume work-related information. This national 
study will focus on understanding child welfare professionals' and 
students' characteristics, use of technology, and preferences for 
obtaining information that they use in their work. The goal of the sub-
study is to provide federally-funded technical assistance providers and 
other stakeholder organizations with a better understanding of their 
target audiences so they can design more effective products, services, 
and dissemination strategies to reach these populations.
    Data collection activities proposed for the Evaluation of Child 
Welfare Information Gateway include: six online targeted surveys 
designed to evaluate CWIG's special initiative websites and other 
targeted website sections; five online event surveys administered after

users of CWIG's special initiative websites and other CWIG products and 
services; and, a general customer survey delivered via multiple modes 
(e.g., website, email, live chat, print, and phone). The sampling plan 
for the CWIG general customer survey is designed to reach the various 
types of customers using Child Welfare Information Gateway services 
such as professionals, students, and customers looking for assistance 
with a personal situation while reducing burden for respondents by only 
asking relevant questions for their backgrounds.
    The market research sub-study seeks to deliver surveys and conduct 
focus groups to gauge online information habits and preferences. The 
proposed market research sub-study will consist of a national online 
survey of child welfare professionals and students, which will be 
administered through four different instruments tailored for four 
different populations. Ten focus groups (each with 8 to 10 
participants) will be used to learn more about different audiences' 
habits and preferences related to child welfare information access and 
consumption.
    Respondents: The Evaluation of Child Welfare Information Gateway 
will target all types of possible CWIG users including: State and local 
governments, the territories, service providers, Tribes and tribal 
organizations, grantees, researchers, and the general public seeking 
information and resources from Child Welfare Information Gateway via

Sub-Study will target child welfare professionals in state, county, 
tribal, and private agencies; Court Improvement Program coordinators 
and directors; judges and attorneys involved in child welfare-related 
work; and students in Bachelor's and Master's degree programs in social
