SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Description: Since 2006, CB has awarded multiple rounds of 
competitive grants to state and local agencies and service providers 
under the RPG Program. Grants are awarded to organizations such as 
child welfare agencies, substance abuse treatment providers, or family 
court systems to develop interagency collaborations and provide 
services designed to increase well-being, improve permanency, and 
enhance the safety of children who are in or are at risk of being 
placed in out-of-home care as a result of a parent's or caretaker's 
substance abuse. Thirty-five grantees are participating in the ongoing 
RPG national cross-site evaluation, which examines implementation, 
partnerships, outcomes, and impacts. All grantees collect data on a 
uniform set of performance measures and report them to CB on a semi-
annual basis through a web-based system. These ongoing data collection 
activities are approved under OMB #0970-0527. All grantees are also 
required to use a portion of their funding to conduct their own 
``local'' program impact evaluation.
    This proposed cost study adds a new and unique contribution to CB's 
portfolio of evaluation activities. Although the RPG cross-site 
evaluation will provide evidence for the effectiveness of some 
interventions to address the emotional effects of trauma, more 
information is needed about the cost of implementing these Evidence-
Based Programs (EBPs).
    The cost study has the key objective to determine the cost of 
implementing three select Trauma-Specific EBPs: Parent-Child 
Interaction Therapy, Seeking Safety, and Trauma-Focused Cognitive 
Behavioral Therapy. To carry out this objective, the study team will 
collect detailed cost information from nine RPG round four and five 
grantees who are implementing these selected EBPs. For each grantee, 
the study team will administer two data collection instruments: (1) A 
Cost Workbook used to collect comprehensive information on the cost of 
implementing each select program (Instrument #1), and (2) a Staff 
Survey and Time Log used to collect information on how program staff 
allocate their time (Instrument #2).
    Respondents: Grantee staff.
    Annual Burden Estimates: Data collection will take place within a 
one year period.
