Study of Nutrition and Activity in Child Care Settings II (SNACS-II)
Food and Physical Activity Experiences Survey
The
Food and Nutrition Service (FNS) is collecting this information to
understand the nutritional quality of CACFP meals and snacks, the
cost to produce them, and dietary intakes and activity levels of
CACFP participants. This is a voluntary collection and FNS will use
the information to examine CACFP operations. The collection does
request personally identifiable information under the Privacy Act of
1974. Responses will be kept private to the extent provided by law
and FNS regulations. According to the Paperwork Reduction Act of
1995, an agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not
required to respond to, a collection of information unless it
displays a valid OMB control number. The valid OMB control number
for this information collection is 0584-xxxx. The time required to
complete this information collection is estimated to average 0.167
hours (10 minutes) per response, including the time for reviewing
instructions, searching existing data sources, gathering and
maintaining the data needed, and completing and reviewing the
collection of information. Send comments regarding this burden
estimate or any other aspect of this collection of information,
including suggestions for reducing this burden, to: U.S. Department
of Agriculture, Food and Nutrition Service, Office of Policy
Support, 1320 Braddock Place, 5th Floor, Alexandria, VA 22314. ATTN:

Study of Nutrition and Activity in Child Care Settings II
Assent Form
What is SNACS-II?
This study is for the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA). USDA is the part of the federal government that is responsible for the meals and snacks in your afterschool program. Part of the study will look at the experiences of youth like you who attend these programs. The study is being conducted by two companies called Mathematica and Westat.
What is expected of me?
The data collector visiting your afterschool program will ask you to complete this paper survey. The survey has questions about your participation in your afterschool program, the types of activities you do, and your food situation at home. If you return the completed survey to the data collector, they will give you a small gift for helping with the study.
Do I have to participate in the study?
No. You can decide if you want to be in the study or not. Your parent or guardian gave permission for you be in the study, but you can still choose not to participate. Your decision will not affect your participation in this program in any way. You may also change your mind at any time, and you can choose to skip questions in the survey.
Will anyone know I am in the study?
No. Your name will not be part of the study. Your answers will be kept private. All information gathered for the study is private under the Privacy Act to the extent allowed by law. The data collector is not allowed to share your personal information with anyone except other people working on this study.
Are there any risks or benefits to being in the study?
You will not benefit directly from being in the study, but you will help USDA and afterschool programs like this one understand the youth they serve. Although there is a very small chance someone could see your answers, the study team has taken many steps to reduce this risk. For example, we did not put your name on this survey.
Who can I talk to about the study?
If you or your parent or guardian have any questions about the study, please call the study team at [study number] (toll-free). If you or your parent or guardian have any questions about your rights as a research participant, please call [IRB number].
If you decide to participate, please fill out this survey and return it to the data collector. If you decide you do not want to participate, please return the blank survey to the data collector.
