SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Description: SYSIL builds evidence on how to decrease the risk of homelessness among youth and young adults with experience in the child welfare system by continuing work with an organization who conducted foundational work as part of the Youth At-Risk of Homelessness project (OMB Control Number: 0970–0445). SYSIL will provide important information to the field by designing and conducting a federally led evaluation of a comprehensive service model for youth at risk of homelessness. The SYSIL evaluation includes an implementation study and an impact study, which will use a rigorous quasiexperimental design that includes a comparison group. This information collection request includes the baseline and follow-up survey instruments for the impact study (a single instrument administered three times), and discussion guides for interviews and focus groups for the implementation study. The data collected from the baseline and follow-up surveys will be used to describe the characteristics of the study sample of youth, develop models for estimating program impacts, and determine program effectiveness by comparing outcomes between youth in the treatment (youth receiving the Pathways program) and control groups. The study also collects updated contact information from youth at two points in time to assist in reaching youth to complete follow-up surveys. Data from the interviews and focus groups will provide a detailed understanding of program implementation. We are also conducting brief check-ins with program directors using a subset of questions from the interview guides to collect information on services provided at two additional points in time. The study also uses administrative data from the child welfare system, homelessness management information system, and program providers. Administrative data is being used in its existing format and does not impose any new information collection or recordkeeping requirements on respondents. The purpose of the requested extension is to continue the ongoing data collection, which will provide ADDRESSES: E:\FR\FM\03JYN1.SGM 03JYN1
