ACTION: Request for public comment.

SUMMARY: The Administration for Children and Families (ACF), in
partnership with the Health Resources and Services Administration
(HRSA), both of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS),
is proposing to extend data collection activity as part of the
kindergarten phase of the Mother and Infant Home Visiting Program
Evaluation Long-Term Follow-Up project (MIHOPE-K). The purpose of
MIHOPE-K is to conduct a follow-up study that assesses the long-term
impact of the Maternal, Infant, and Early Childhood Home Visiting
(MIECHV) Program when the participating children are in kindergarten.
This Federal Register notice is seeking to extend data collection for
the kindergarten follow-up. The original Federal Register notices for
the MIHOPE-K data collection were titled under MIHOPE-Long-Term Follow-
Up (MIHOPE-LT).
DATES: Comments due December 30, 2021. OMB must make a decision about
the collection of information between 30 and 60 days after publication
of this document in the Federal Register. Therefore, a comment is best
assured of having its full effect if OMB receives it within 30 days of
publication.
ADDRESSES: Written comments and recommendations for the proposed
information collection should be sent within 30 days of publication of
this notice to <a href="http://www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain">www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain</a>. Find this particular
information collection by selecting ``Currently under 30-day Review--
Open for Public Comments'' or by using the search function.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Description: This request for an extension is to complete the following
data collection activities for MIHOPE-K: (1) A survey with the child's
primary caregiver (who will be the mother if she is available), (2)
direct assessments of child development, (3) surveys with the child's
teacher, (4) a direct assessment of the caregiver, (5) videotaped
interactions between the caregiver and child, (6) a caregiver website
to provide current contact information, (7) state child welfare
records, and (8) school records. In addition to collecting these data,
the MIHOPE-K project will continue to maintain up-to-date consent forms
for the collection of administrative data. Future information
collection requests and related Federal Register notices will describe
future data collection efforts for this project.
Data collected during the kindergarten follow-up study is being
used to estimate the effects of MIECHV-funded programs on the following
seven domains: (1) Maternal health, (2) child health, (3) child
development and school performance, (4) child maltreatment, (5)
parenting, (6) crime or domestic violence, and (7) family economic
self-sufficiency.
Respondents: The respondents in this extension will include 1,391
families who have not yet participated in the kindergarten follow-up
study activities. We have assumed that only 25 percent of respondents
will complete the caregiver website. We will also obtain child welfare
data from the 11 MIHOPE states and school records data from state and
local agencies. We have assumed that we will obtain data from 11 states
and 5 local education agencies.
