Purpose The goal of this study is to look systematically across the selected subset of ARP programs, to provide an integrated account of whether, how, and to what extent their implementation served to achieve their intended outcomes, particularly with respect to advancing equity. This package updates the generic requirement with instruments tailored to three specific in-depth evaluations, outlining the evaluation designs, information collection methods and instruments, and associated burden. The three evaluations are: • Integration of Funding to Increase Equitable Access to Behavioral Health Crisis Services (Behavioral Health study) • Local Innovations and Practices in the Equitable Implementation of ARP Programs to Reduce Homelessness (Homelessness study) • State Coordination Strategies to Equitably Serve Children Through the American Rescue Plan (State Coordination Strategies study) The proposed information collection activities cover mixed-method approaches to implement primarily outcome and process evaluations. Data collection activities for these studies include: (1) interviews, (2) focus groups, (3) short surveys of program participants and/or eligible non-participants, and (4) data requests. Respondents: State and local program administrators, program staff, VerDate Sep<11>2014 20:35 Aug 29, 2024 Jkt 262001 community-based program partners, and individuals who participate or are eligible to participate in the relevant ARP programs. B. Annual Burden Estimates The burden estimates included in the supporting statements reflect the expectations for information collection and related activities associated with the conduct of this phase of three studies. During this phase, we anticipate information collection to include key informant interviews, web surveys, Total respondents: 569. Total Burden Hours: 432. C. Public Comments Public comments are particularly invited on: Whether this collection of information is necessary, whether it will have practical utility; whether our estimate of the public burden of this collection of information is accurate, and based on valid assumptions and methodology; ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and ways in which we can minimize the burden of the collection of information on those who are to respond, through the use of appropriate technological collection techniques or other forms of information technology.
