Abstract: Child Welfare Information Gateway (CWIG) is a service of the Children's Bureau, a component within the Administration for Children and Families, and is dedicated to the mission of connecting professionals and concerned citizens to information on programs, research, legislation, and statistics regarding the safety, permanency, and well-being of children and families. CWIG seeks to continuously identify the needs in the child welfare field, determine the extent to which those needs are being met, and assess the impact of information products and services. The proposed information collection activity includes conducting a follow-up survey with a sample of professional CWIG users. The follow-up survey will gather data about how professionals use Child Welfare Information Gateway's information services in their work and will assess the impact of CWIG products and services. Follow-up survey findings will be applied to make continuous improvements to Child Welfare Information Gateway's website and other information services.
