Subject: Change Request – Diaper Distribution Demonstration and Research Pilot Assessment (OMB #0970-0531) 



This memo requests approval of changes to the approved information collection, Diaper Distribution Demonstration and Research Pilot Assessment, approved under the Formative Data Collections for ACF Program Support (OMB #0970-0531).   


Background

The Diaper Distribution Demonstration and Research Pilot (DDDRP) Assessment was approved on December 20, 2023. One of the purposes of the information collection is to inform efforts to design a reliable future impact evaluation of the DDDRP initiative. To solicit additional input on the impact evaluation study design, OPRE is requesting approval to host a voluntary listening session with current DDDRP grant recipients. This listening session will enable OPRE to answer research questions associated with the Study of Impact Evaluation Feasibility (see Supporting Statement A (SSA), section A2, Research Questions). This addition does not alter the described purposes and uses of the information as currently approved but instead will aid in meeting the goals of the effort as described.  


Overview of Requested Changes

This request is to add an additional instrument containing discussion prompts for a listening session with grant recipients (Instrument 8. DDDRP Listening Session Discussion Guide). We have updated the burden estimates provided in SSA to account for this additional data collection activity. The overall number of respondents remains unchanged as the same individuals will respond to instrument 8 as instrument 1. This requested change increases the number of total burden hours from 1,389.75 to 1,515.75 and the total annual cost from $11,098.02 to $12,787.05.


Time Sensitivities

To meet project deadlines, OPRE aims to hold the listening session in late March. We request approval to add this additional instrument as soon as possible.
