Overview of Information Collection Title of Information Collection: Family Options 12 Year Study: Tracking and Reengagement Data Collection. OMB Approval Number: 2528–0259. Type of Request: Reinstatement with change of a previously approved collections. Form Number: NA. Description of the need for the information and proposed use: The purpose of this proposed information collection is to locate the families that enrolled in the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development’s (HUD) Family Options Study between September 2010 and January 2012 and to update their current contact information. The Family Options Study is a multisite experiment designed to test the impacts of different housing and service interventions on homeless families in five key domains: Housing stability, family preservation, adult well-being, child well-being, and self-sufficiency. Both the design and the scale of the study provides a strong basis for conclusions about the relative impacts of the interventions over time, and data collected at two previous points in time, twenty (20) months after random assignment and thirty-seven (37) months after random assignment, yielded powerful evidence regarding the positive impact of providing a non-timelimited housing subsidy to a family experiencing homelessness. It is possible, though, that some effects of the various interventions might change over time or take longer to emerge, particularly for child well-being. Therefore, HUD plans to conduct a follow-up survey of study families roughly eleven years after enrollment into the study. Locating, reengaging, and updating the contact information for study families will be critical to supporting a healthy response rate for the planned 11-year follow-up survey. This Federal Register Notice provides an opportunity to comment on the Participant Update Contact Form that will be used to reengage with study families and gather updated contact information.
