ACTION: Request for public comment.
AGENCY:
The Office of Planning,
Research, and Evaluation (OPRE),
Administration for Children and
Families (ACF), U.S. Department of
Health and Human Services (HHS), is
requesting a 3-year extension with
changes to continue collecting data for
the study Variations in Implementation
of Quality Interventions (VIQI). In

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Description: Through the VIQI Project,
OPRE aims to inform policymakers,
practitioners, and stakeholders about
effective ways to support the quality
and effectiveness of early care and
education (ECE) centers for promoting
young children’s learning and
development. The VIQI Project
completed a pilot study in about 40
centers in three metropolitan areas in
2018–2019 that is informing a year-long
impact evaluation and process study
that involves testing the effectiveness of
two curricular and professional
development models aiming to
strengthen the quality of classroom
processes and children’s outcomes. The
impact evaluation and process study is
expected to begin in the fall of 2021 and
will include about 140 communitybased and Head Start ECE centers
spread across about 12 different
metropolitan areas in the United States.
The VIQI Project will consist of a 3group experimental design where the
initial quality and other characteristics
of ECE centers are measured. For details
about the study design, see the
Supporting Statements at https://
www.reginfo.gov/public/do/
PRAViewDocument?ref_nbr=2020080970-009.
In anticipation of changes to center
characteristics due to COVID–19, annual
burden estimates and instruments have
been updated to accommodate a
different sample size of centers,
administrators, teachers, and coaches
for the impact evaluation and process
study.
The previously approved data
collection instruments for the impact
evaluation and process study include
the following:
(1) Instruments for Screening and
Recruitment of ECE Centers. We do not
propose any changes to these materials;
(2) Baseline Instruments.
Modifications made to surveys remove
items that showed little variation in the
pilot study, edit item wording to
increase clarity and ease of
understanding, and add a few new items

to capture new constructs of interest
based upon the insights gained from the
pilot study. The child assessment and
classroom observation instruments have
been updated to reflect the selected
assessments and observations. We
added an additional time point of data
collection (baseline) for teacher reports
on questions about children in the
classroom and have added in questions
about children’s academic skills. Parent/
guardian reports to questions about
children have been added to gather
information about children’s skills at
the beginning of the impact evaluation
and process study. Administrator/
teacher COVID–19 supplemental survey
questions have been added to gather
information about how the pandemic
has changed typical center and
classroom programming and
functioning, if there is a need to
contextualize findings from the impact
evaluation and process study due to
circumstances surrounding the COVID–
19 pandemic at the time of data
collection;
(3) Follow-Up Instruments.
Modifications made to surveys remove
items that showed little variation in the
pilot study, edit item wording to
increase clarity and ease of
understanding, and add a few new items
to capture new constructs of interest
based upon insights gained from the
pilot study. The child assessment and
classroom observation instruments have
been updated to reflect the selected
assessments and observations. We
added in questions about children’s
academic skills to the teacher reports on
questions about children in the
classroom. Parent/guardian reports to
questions about children have been
added to gather information about
children’s skills at the end of the impact
evaluation and process study; and
(4) Fidelity of Implementation
Instruments. Modifications to the Coach
Log have been made to remove or
consolidate items that showed little
variation or proved less useful in the
pilot study and to edit item wording to
increase clarity and ease of
understanding.
Respondents: Staff members working
in Head Start grantee and communitybased child care oversight agencies, staff
members working in about 140 ECE
centers in about 12 metropolitan areas
across the United States, and parents
and children being served in these
centers.

Program to monitor care provider
facility compliance with federal laws
and regulations, legal agreements, and
ORR policies and procedures; and
perform other administrative tasks.
DATES: Comments due within 60 days of
publication. In compliance with the
requirements of Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of
the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995,
ACF is soliciting public comment on the
specific aspects of the information
collection described above.
ADDRESSES: Copies of the proposed
collection of information can be
obtained and comments may be
forwarded by emailing infocollection@
acf.hhs.gov. Alternatively, copies can

Jkt 253001
instruments to this collection, both of
which will be incorporated into UAC
Path. Finally, ORR plans to remove one
currently approved instrument from this
collection.
1. Care Provider Facility Tour Request
(Form A–1A): This instrument is used
by advocacy groups, faith-based
organizations, researchers, government
officials, and other stakeholders to
request tours of ORR care provider
facilities. After the request is received,
ORR documents its decision and details
regarding date and location of the tour,
if applicable, and provides the
completed form to the requester. No
revisions are currently requested; ORR
plans to continue use of this form as-is.
2. Notice to UAC for Flores Visits
(Forms A–4 & A–4s): This instrument is
used by care provider facilities to notify
UAC of upcoming visits by Flores
counsel (lawyers and volunteers from
the organization that originally
participated in the creation of the Flores
Settlement Agreement) and allow UAC
to add their name to a sign-up sheet if
they are willing to speak with Flores
counsel. ORR updated the Spanish
translation of this PDF instrument.
3. Authorization for Release of
Records (Form A–5): This instrument is
used by attorneys, legal service
providers, government agencies, and
other stakeholders to request UAC case
file records. In most cases, requesters
are required to obtain the signature of
the subject of the record request (UAC
or their parent/legal guardian or
sponsor) and a witness. ORR made the
following revisions:
Æ Added a section in which ORRfunded legal service providers are
required to certify their representation
of the child.
Æ Added a separate area where
sponsors may authorize the release of
their records.
Æ Updated the required supporting
documentation for a representative of a
federal/state government agency or the
National Center for Missing and
Exploited Children to further require
that the requester specify the scope of
their investigation and provide a case
reference number.
Æ Clarified in the instructions that
ORR will not release any records that
are clearly outside of the scope of a
government agency’s investigation
absent a court-issued subpoena or order.
4. Notification of Concern (Form A–7):
This instrument is used by home study
and post-release service caseworkers,
care provider case managers, and the
ORR National Call Center to notify ORR
of certain concerns that arise after a
UAC is released from ORR custody. This
PO 00000
Frm 00046
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
545
is a new instrument that ORR plans to
add to this collection.
5. Event (Form A–9): This instrument
is used by ORR care provider programs
to document high-level information
about situations that must be reported to
ORR. Creating an Event is the first step
in creating any type of incident report
(see forms A–10A to A–10C below), PLE
Report (see form A–10D below) or
Notification of Concern (see form A–7
above). After an Event is created, an
incident report or Notification of
Concern is created for each UAC
involved in the incident and linked to
the Event. For program-level events, one
PLE Report is created and linked to the
Event. Event information is visible in
each individual report/notification
report. This instrument was previously
approved as part of ORR’s various
incident reports (Forms A–10A to A–
10D). ORR is listing it separately, as a
new instrument, to better align
instruments in this collection with how
data will be entered in UAC Path. Some
fields that were previously entered in
each incident report have been moved
into this instrument so that they only
need to be entered once. The form also
contains several new fields that capture
additional information about the
location and timeframe of the event.
Please note that internal form number
A–9 was previously assigned to the
Program-Level Event Report.
6. Emergency Significant Incident
Report (SIR) and Addendum (Form A–
10A): This instrument is used by ORR
care provider programs to inform ORR
of urgent situations in which there is an
immediate threat to a child’s safety and
well-being that require instantaneous
action. In some cases, an Emergency SIR
Addendum may be required to provide
additional information obtained after
the initial report. ORR made the
following revisions:
Æ Revised the available options for
the category and subcategory fields.
Æ Added a question asking whether
the incident is related to gang/cartel
crimes, activities, or affiliation.
Æ Added fields to capture additional
detail on individuals involved in the
incident, actions taken, and video
footage.
Æ Added fields to capture additional
information related to reporting of
incidents to child protective services,
state licensing agencies, and local law
enforcement.
Æ Added a disposition field to
indicate whether the incident is closed
or if the incident is open and further
action is required.
Æ Updated functionality for the list of
individuals who need to be notified of
the incident so that it is auto-populated

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Description: Through the VIQI Project, OPRE aims to inform
policymakers, practitioners, and stakeholders about effective ways to
support the quality and effectiveness of early care and education (ECE)
centers for promoting young children's learning and development. The
VIQI Project completed a pilot study in about 40 centers in three
metropolitan areas in 2018-2019 that is informing a year-long impact
evaluation and process study that involves testing the effectiveness of
two curricular and professional development models aiming to strengthen
the quality of classroom processes and children's outcomes. The impact
evaluation and process study is expected to begin in the fall of 2021
and will include about 140 community-based and Head Start ECE centers
spread across about 12 different metropolitan areas in the United
States.
The VIQI Project will consist of a 3-group experimental design
where the initial quality and other characteristics of ECE centers are
measured. For details about the study design, see the Supporting
Statements at https://www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAViewDocument?ref_nbr=202008-0970-009.
In anticipation of changes to center characteristics due to COVID-
19, annual burden estimates and instruments have been updated to
accommodate a different sample size of centers, administrators,
teachers, and coaches for the impact evaluation and process study.
The previously approved data collection instruments for the impact
evaluation and process study include the following:
(1) Instruments for Screening and Recruitment of ECE Centers. We do
not propose any changes to these materials;
(2) Baseline Instruments. Modifications made to surveys remove
items that showed little variation in the pilot study, edit item
wording to increase clarity and ease of understanding, and add a few
new items to capture new constructs of interest based upon the insights
gained from the pilot study. The child assessment and classroom
observation instruments have been updated to reflect the selected
assessments and observations. We added an additional time point of data
collection (baseline) for teacher reports on questions about children
in the classroom and have added in questions about children's academic
skills. Parent/guardian reports to questions about children have been
added to gather information about children's skills at the beginning of
the impact evaluation and process study. Administrator/teacher COVID-19
supplemental survey questions have been added to gather information
about how the pandemic has changed typical center and classroom
programming and functioning, if there is a need to contextualize
findings from the impact evaluation and process study due to
circumstances surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic at the time of data
collection;
(3) Follow-Up Instruments. Modifications made to surveys remove
items that showed little variation in the pilot study, edit item
wording to increase clarity and ease of understanding, and add a few
new items to capture new constructs of interest based upon insights
gained from the pilot study. The child assessment and classroom
observation instruments have been updated to reflect the selected
assessments and observations. We added in questions about children's
academic skills to the teacher reports on questions about children in
the classroom. Parent/guardian reports to questions about children have
been added to gather information about children's skills at the end of
the impact evaluation and process study; and
(4) Fidelity of Implementation Instruments. Modifications to the
Coach Log have been made to remove or consolidate items that showed
little variation or proved less useful in the pilot study and to edit
item wording to increase clarity and ease of understanding.
Respondents: Staff members working in Head Start grantee and
community-based child care oversight agencies, staff members working in
about 140 ECE centers in about 12 metropolitan areas across the United
States, and parents and children being served in these centers.
