The Office of Planning, Research and Evaluation (OPRE) at the Administration for Children and Families (ACF), U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), seeks Office of Management and Budget (OMB) approval for a 3-year pilot generic clearance to conduct interviews, focus groups, and surveys with state and local Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) and Child Welfare program administrators, staff, and clients in order to inform the design of and to better understand the mechanisms and effects of interventions informed by behavioral science and intended to improve program outcomes. This activity is planned as part of ACF’s Behavioral Interventions to Advance Self-Sufficiency Next Generation (BIAS-NG) project. The BIAS-NG project will apply behavioral insights to a range of ACF programs including Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF), Child Welfare, and other programs to be determined and will use behavioral insights to design and test interventions intended to improve the operations and efficacy of human services programs. The request is being sought as a pilot of the concept of using a generic approval mechanism for the types of studies described in this document. As such, studies included under this clearance will be limited to two program areas: TANF and Child Welfare.
