Abstract: Through the Home Visiting Assessment of Implementation Quality study, HRSA aims to examine specific components of the Home Visiting Implementation Quality Conceptual Framework to inform strategies for implementing high quality home visiting programs. One of the three quality components the study will focus on is support for supervisors of home visitors. A qualified, stable, and supported home visitor workforce is an important quality component of home visiting, and supervision is a key part of supporting that workforce. The requested information collection will explore how training for supervisors may be linked to home visitor job satisfaction. It will also examine how supervisor training in important content areas (e.g., substance use, intimate partner violence) may affect the extent to which home visitors talk to families about these topics. Data collection will include an online recruitment survey, interviews, and focus groups.

Short Statement: This study includes qualitative data collection through focus groups and interviews of home visiting program leaders, supervisors, and home visitors. Participants are recruited through the information collection tool Recruitment Survey and the study team originally anticipated collecting up to 250 responses. The Recruitment Survey is currently open and close to meeting this target with very few responses from certain regions of the county. The study team proposes to increase the total response from 250 to 400 to allow continued recruitment outreach efforts, ensuring a diverse sample of home visiting representatives and accounting for participant dropout. As the Survey is currently open the study team determined that the average burden per response is 3.5 minutes, a decrease from the original estimate 10.2 minutes which decreases the overall burden.
