Proposed Information Collection 

Activity; Evaluation of Employment 

Coaching for TANF and Related 

Populations 

AGENCY: Office of Planning, Research, 

and Evaluation, Administration for 

Children and Families, HHS. 

ACTION: Request for Public Comment. 

SUMMARY: The Administration for 

Children and Families (ACF) is 

proposing to continue ongoing approved 

data collection activities and add 

additional activities for the sample 

enrolled in the Evaluation of 

Employment Coaching for TANF and 

Related Populations (Office of 

Management and Budget (OMB)#: 0970– 

0506). This includes (1) an extension for 

the previously approved second followup survey data collection; (2) new data 

collection through a third follow-up 

survey; and (3) new data collection 

through follow-up semi-structured 

interviews with management, staff, 

supervisors, and participants. 

DATES: Comments due within 60 days of 

publication. In compliance with the 

requirements of the Paperwork 

Reduction Act of 1995, ACF is soliciting 

public comment on the specific aspects 

of the information collection described 

above. 

ADDRESSES: You can obtain copies of the 

proposed collection of information and 

submit comments by emailing 

OPREinfocollection@acf.hhs.gov. 

Identify all requests by the title of the 

information collection. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Description: This study is providing 

an opportunity to learn more about the 

potential of coaching to help clients 

achieve self-sufficiency and other 

desired employment-related outcomes. 

It includes the following employment 

programs: MyGoals for Employment 

Success in Baltimore; MyGoals for 

Employment Success in Houston; 

Family Development and SelfSufficiency program in Iowa; LIFT in 

New York City, Chicago, and Los 

Angeles; Work Success in Utah; and 

Goal4 It! in Jefferson County, Colorado. 

Together, these programs include 

Temporary Assistance for Needy 

Families (TANF) agencies and other 

public or private employment programs 

that serve low-income individuals. Each 

site has a robust coaching component 

and the capacity to conduct a rigorous 

impact evaluation. This study is 

providing information on whether 

coaching helps people develop selfregulation skills, obtain and retain jobs, 

advance in their careers, move toward 

self-sufficiency, and improve their 

overall well-being. To meet these 

objectives, this study includes an 

impact and implementation study, as 

approved by OMB. The approved 

impact study initially included two 

follow-up surveys at approximately 9 

months and 21 months, respectively, 

after random assignment. 

This submission, in part, builds on 

the existing impact study, which 

randomly assigned participants to either 

a ‘‘program group,’’ who were paired 

with a coach, or to a ‘‘control group,’’ 

who were not paired with a coach. The 

effectiveness of the coaching will be 

determined by differences between 

members of the program and control 

groups in outcomes such as obtaining 

and retaining employment, earnings, 

measures of self-sufficiency, and 

measures of self-regulation. 

The proposed extension for the 

second follow-up survey data collection 

under OMB #0970–0506 will allow 

sample members who enrolled at the 

end of the study intake period to 

complete the second follow-up survey. 

There are no changes to the previously 

approved information collection. 

Additionally, the proposed new 

information collection through a third 

follow-up survey will provide 

information about participants at least 4 

years after random assignment. This 

survey will provide rigorous evidence 

on whether the coaching interventions 

are effective, for whom, and under what 

circumstances over the longer term. The 

information collected at a later followup point will be used to assess how 

employment coaching might have a 

continued effect on participants long 

after they have left coaching programs. 

This submission also builds on the 

existing implementation study. The 

proposed new information collection 

through follow-up semi-structured 

interviews with management, staff, 

supervisors, and participants under 

OMB #0970–0506 will enable additional 

input from employment coaching 

program staff and participants on the 

processes and perceptions of 

employment coaching. The proposed 

new data collection instruments will 

provide descriptive information about 

how coaches form trusting relationships 

with their participants and other key 

topics that have emerged as important 

in analysis of previously collected study 

data. 

Respondents: Individuals enrolled in 

the Evaluation of Employment Coaching 

for TANF and Related Populations 

study. All participants will be able to 

opt out of participating in the data 

collection activities.
