Abstract: Sponsored by the Children’s Bureau (CB) in the Administration on Children, Youth and Families (ACYF), Administration for Youth and Families (ACF), U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS), the Evaluation of the Child Welfare Capacity Building Collaborative seeks approval for the information collection to track, monitor, and evaluate the activities of the Capacity Building Collaborative. The Collaborative includes three Federally funded centers (Center for States, Center for Tribes, and Center for Courts) that deliver national child welfare expertise and evidence-informed training and technical assistance services to State, Tribal, and Territorial public child welfare agencies and Court Improvement Programs (CIPs). The CB funded Centers’ collective goal is to build the capacities of State, local, Tribal child welfare systems to successfully undertake practice, organizational, and systemic reforms necessary to implement federal policies, meet federal standards, and achieve better outcomes for the children, youth and families they serve. This information collection request is for approval to extend use of previously approved data collection instruments for the second part of data collection for the evaluation of the Child Welfare Capacity Building Collaborative. The instruments under this information collection for which we seek approval were submitted and approved under OMB #0970-0494 in March 2017. Under this supporting statement for approval, three instruments were removed from the original approval (PL 113-183 Key Informant Survey, PL 113-183 Key Informant Interview, and the Capacity Survey). For the PL 113-183 instruments, no additional data collection is needed because the time line for implementation of the law has passed. Approval for the Capacity Survey will be sought later, after the instrument has been reviewed and vetted by stakeholders of the Child Welfare Capacity Building Collaborative. Most instruments remain the same. There are a few minor changes to the Webinar and online learning registration forms, which are intended to more accurately capture information on the characteristics of users.

Short Statement: The Center for States Innovation Survey has been added because the Center for States plans to use this instrument to pilot new service strategies or innovative techniques and receive feedback on those strategies. The Capacity Survey is not included in this extension request but will be submitted for OMB approval at a later date, after the instrument has been reviewed for continued applicability and vetted by stakeholders of the Child Welfare Capacity Building Collaborative. The previously approved P.L. 113-183 Survey and Interview are being removed because the timeline for implementation of the law has passed, and no further data are needed. Minor changes, which did not impact respondent burden, were made to the Webinar and CapLEARN registration forms to more accurately capture information on the characteristics of users.
