Abstract: The Office of the Assistant Secretary for Planning and Evaluation (ASPE) within the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, in partnership with the Office for Victims of Crimes within the U.S. Department of Justice, is seeking approval by OMB for a new information collection request entitled, ``Domestic Violence Housing First (DVHF) Demonstration Evaluation.'' The Washington State Coalition Against Domestic Violence (WSCADV) is overseeing and coordinating an evaluation of the DVHF Demonstration project through a contract with ASPE. This quasi-experimental research study involves longitudinally examining the program effects of DVHF on domestic violence survivors' safety and housing stability. The findings will be of interest to the general public, to policy-makers, and to organizations working with domestic violence survivors.

Short Statement: The Office of the Assistant Secretary for Planning and Evaluation (ASPE) within the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, in partnership with the Office for Victims of Crimes within the U.S. Department of Justice, is seeking approval by OMB for a revision to add a 24-month follow-up data collection to an existing information collection request entitled, “Domestic Violence Housing First (DVHF) Demonstration Evaluation” (OMB Control Number: HHS-OS-0990-0458). The proposed revision to the collection would add a fourth follow-up data collection to be administered 24 months after study enrollment (Time 1) to examine longer-term impacts of the Domestic Violence Housing First Demonstration program. The follow-up survey is identical to the one used at the 6, 12, and 18 month follow-up. The respondents are domestic violence survivors who are enrolled in the Domestic Violence Housing First Demonstration Evaluation (OMB Control Number HHS-OS-0990-0458). Study enrollment is taking place over 15 months, so the annualized burden for the 24-month follow-up survey is based on 12/15 (256) of the expected sample (320).
