Evaluation of the Family Unification Program

The Evaluation of the Family Unification Program study was approved on September 18, 2019. The evaluation is a multi-site randomized controlled trial evaluation of the Family Unification Program, which provides housing vouchers to child welfare involved families. The data collection for the study consists of qualitative interviews with program staff and families, forms to be filled out by staff, and administrative data collection. All qualitative interviews were intended to take place over three site visits, with family interviews taking place at the second and third visits. Our second site visit is scheduled to take place in Fall/Winter 2020. Given the COVID-19 pandemic, we will be conducting our second round of site visits virtually, and accordingly, we propose to conduct interviews with families virtually instead of in-person as was originally planned. The primary goal of the interviews is to understand how families experience the program.

The latest form for Evaluation of the Family Unification Program expires 2021-09-30 and is listed under ICR 202009-0970-004.
