Abstract: The Office of Planning, Research and Evaluation (OPRE) and the Family and Youth Services Bureau (FYSB) of the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) seek approval for an information collection activity as part of its effort to describe the activities of the National Domestic Violence Hotline (NDVH) and the Love Is Respect (LIR) hotline (otherwise known as the National Dating Abuse Helpline). To carry out this work, OPRE and FYSB have contracted with the George Washington University Milken School of Public Health. This Information Collection Request (ICR) addresses new data to be collected from a web-based survey of visitors to the NDVH and LIR websites. The data will address a gap in understanding the preferred mode of contact (i.e. phone, chat, or text) by those who contact the NDVH/LIR.
