Title: Maternal and Infant Home Visiting Program Evaluation (MIHOPE) Check-in Project.

OMB No.: 0970-0402.

Description: 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 a data collection activity as part of the Maternal and Infant Home Visiting Program Evaluation (MIHOPE) Check-in project. The purpose of the MIHOPE Check-in project is to maintain up-to-date contact information for families that participated in MIHOPE (the national evaluation of the Maternal, Infant, and Early Childhood Home Visiting program), so it is possible to conduct future follow-up studies and assess the potential long-term impact of the program. In addition to contact information, the MIHOPE Check-in project will also administer a brief survey on child and family outcomes.

Respondents: Adult participants in MIHOPE and adult primary caregivers of children who participated in MIHOPE.
