1 Grantees will ask each family to complete only one child well-being instrument, depending on the focal child’s age.

2 If the child is 18 months or older at baseline, the age-appropriate form of the CBCL should be administered at both baseline and program exit. If the child is under 18 months at baseline, the age-appropriate form of the ITSP should be administered at both baseline and program exit.
