We recently spoke about your family’s participation in a research study sponsored by the Administration for Children and Families. We are contacting you because you or your child participated in the National Survey of Child and Adolescent Well-Being several years ago. We would like to speak with your child <INSERT CHILD FIRST NAME> for a new study, the Survey of Family Well-Being.

I would like your permission to ask your child to participate in this new study. Once I have your permission, I would go over the study details with your child and offer your child an opportunity to ask questions.

PAR_PERM. (Hello, my name is ________.)

[IF NEEDED] Thanks for patience as I pull up your <INSERT CHILD FIRST NAME>’s case in our system. As I mentioned earlier, I would like your permission to ask <INSERT CHILD NAME> to participate in a research study.

The interview with <INSERT CHILD NAME> lasts around 30 minutes. We will ask questions about places <INSERT CHILD FIRST NAME> has lived, how <CHILD FIRST NAME> feels about your family, and about people who may help <INSERT CHILD FIRST NAME>. We also ask questions about things that may have happened in <CHILD FIRST NAME>’s life like living in foster care, being homeless, or running away. If <CHILD FIRST NAME> knows that he/she is adopted, we would like to know more about his/her feelings and thoughts about adoption.

The voluntary participation, risks, benefits, and privacy of this survey are the same as those described to you on the consent form we reviewed before your interview.

I will ask for your help to talk with <CHILD FIRST NAME>. At that point, <INSERT CHILD FIRST NAME> may choose whether to participate in the study. To protect your privacy and that of your child, neither of you will know the other’s answers to the interview questions. One exception to note: We will not tell anyone your child’s answers unless we are worried about your child’s safety. If your child tells us they might hurt themselves or someone else, we may tell someone. If they tell us someone hurts them, we will inform the appropriate authorities to keep people safe.

We will give your child a $30 gift card for participating.

Do you have any questions?
