inhibit, innovation, improvement,
equity, and learning.
Transparency: ACF will make
information about planned and ongoing
evaluations easily accessible, typically
through posting on the web information
about the contractor or grant recipient
conducting the work and descriptions of
the evaluation questions, methods to be
used, and expected timeline for
reporting results. ACF will present
information about study designs,
implementation, and findings at
professional conferences.
Study plans will be published in
advance. ACF will release evaluation
results regardless of the findings.
Evaluation reports will describe the
methods used, including strengths and
weaknesses, and discuss the
generalizability of the findings.
Evaluation reports will present
comprehensive results, including
favorable, unfavorable, and null
findings. ACF will release evaluation
results timely—usually within two
months of a report’s completion.
As appropriate and feasible, ACF will
archive evaluation data for secondary
use by interested researchers, typically
through building requirements into
contracts to prepare data sets for
secondary use.
Independence: Independence and
objectivity are core principles of
evaluation. Agency and program
leadership, program staff, service
providers, populations and
communities studied, and others should
participate actively in setting evaluation
priorities, identifying evaluation
questions, and assessing the
implications of findings. However, it is
important to insulate evaluation
functions from undue influence and
from both the appearance and the reality
of bias. To promote objectivity, ACF
protects independence in the design,
execution, analysis, and reporting of
evaluations. To this end:
• ACF will conduct evaluations
through the competitive award of grants
and contracts to external experts who
are free from conflicts of interest.
• The Deputy Assistant Secretary for
Planning, Research, and Evaluation
reports directly to the Assistant
Secretary for Children and Families;
serves as ACF’s Chief Evaluation
Officer; has authority to approve the
design of evaluation projects and
analysis plans; and has authority to
approve, release and disseminate
evaluation reports.
Ethics: ACF-sponsored evaluations
will be conducted in an ethical and
equitable manner and safeguard the
dignity, rights, safety and privacy of
participants. ACF-sponsored
evaluations will comply with both the
spirit and the letter of relevant
requirements such as regulations
governing research involving human
subjects. ACF will expect contractors to
meaningfully engage stakeholders from
the programs and communities involved
in studies to ensure programmatic,
cultural, linguistic and historical
nuances are accurately and respectfully
addressed from the initial study design,
through execution, analyses and
reporting.
Authority: 42 U.S.C. 1310.

Acting Assistant Secretary.

requests should be identified by the title
of the information collection.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Description: OPRE/ACF/HHS
proposes qualitative data collection as
part of the Success Sequence Interviews
study. The goal of this project is to
understand complex decisions and
circumstances of youth transitions to
adulthood and explore the complexities
around achieving the success sequence
milestones of high school graduation,
full-time employment, getting married,
and having children. The data collected
from the interviews will help ACF and
the broader research field understand
adults’ perspectives and experiences
related to the milestones, and will
provide ACF’s Family and Youth
Services Bureau’s Sexual Risk
Avoidance Education grant program
with greater insight into the program
content and strategies related to the
success sequence milestones and their
ordering that could best resonate with
youth. To support these efforts, we seek
approval from the Office of Management
and Budget to collect qualitative
interview data from adults ages 30–35,
recruiting from online research panels
with participants across all U.S. regions.
We propose the following data
collection instruments:
(1) Success Sequence Screener: The
screener will be administered by
telephone. Information collected
through the screener will be used to
screen interview respondents into the
study based on respondent
demographics, household income,
geographic location, and life milestones.
(2) Success Sequence Interview
Protocol: We will administer an
asynchronous interview with adults
ages 30–35. Information collected
through the interview protocol includes
respondent life history focused on
education, employment and work
experience, family life, and financial
status.
Respondents: A total of 225 interview
respondents will be recruited from
existing large national online panels of
research participants.
