The surveys will help researchers and ACF learn more about your experiences since you applied to the HPOG program.
The surveys will ask about your education and training experiences, the jobs you have had, and how things are going for you.
We are interested in the experiences of everyone who applied to the HPOG program. Even if you were not selected to participate in the program, your experiences are important to this study.
You can choose whether or not to participate in this survey.
Your experiences are unique. Your participation is important.

If you choose to participate, any information you provide to us will be kept private to the extent allowed by law. Only the researchers involved in this study will see your responses.
The interview will last about 60 minutes, and after you complete the survey, you will receive a gift card valued at $40 to thank you for your help with this important study.
