A. Overview of Information Collection

    Title of Information Collection: Family Options Study 12-Year 
Follow-up: Survey Data Collection.
    OMB Approval Number: 2528-0259.
    Type of Request: Revision of a currently approved collection.
    Form Number: N/A.
    Description of the need for the information and proposed use: The 
purpose of this proposed information collection is to administer a 12-
Year Follow-up Survey with the families that enrolled in the U.S. 
Department of Housing and Urban Development's (HUD) Family Options 
Study between September 2010 and January 2012.
    The Family Options Study is a multi-site experiment designed to 
test the impacts of different housing and service interventions on 
homeless families in five key domains: Housing stability, family 
preservation, adult well-being, child well-being, and self-sufficiency. 
Both the design and the scale of the study provide a strong basis for 
conclusions about the relative impacts of the interventions over time, 
and data collected at two previous points in time, twenty (20) months 
after random assignment and thirty-seven (37) months after random 
assignment, yielded powerful evidence regarding the positive impact of 
providing a non-time-limited housing subsidy to a family experiencing 
homelessness. It is possible, though, that some effects of the various 
interventions might change over time or take longer to emerge, 
particularly for child well-being. Therefore, HUD plans to conduct a 
follow up survey of study families roughly twelve years after 
enrollment into the study. The 12-Year Follow-up Survey will attempt to 
collect information from three separate samples: (1) The 2,241 heads of 
household who originally enrolled in the study, (2) a sample of 2,220 
young children between the ages of 10-17 who currently reside with the 
head of households, and (3) a new sample of 1,831 ``adult children'' 
who consist of the young adults who were minor children during the base 
study period, but who have aged into adulthood over the past twelve 
years.
    This Federal Register Notice provides an opportunity to comment on 
the data collection instruments and associated materials to be 
administered to the families enrolled in the Family Options Study.
    Respondents: Adults and children who are members of the families 
enrolled in the Family Options Study.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 6,292 respondents (2,241 adult 
heads of household; 2,220 children ages 10-17; and 1,831 adult children 
ages 18-30).
    Frequency of Response: Once.
    Average Hours per Response: Completion the Adult Head of Household 
Survey is expected to take on average one hour, with the consent form 
taking an additional 10 minutes or .16 hours per respondent and the 
Parent Permission Form taking an additional 10 minutes or .16 hours per 
respondent. Completion of the Child Assent Form will take roughly ten 
minutes or .16 hours on average and the Child Survey will take 30 
minutes on average to complete. Engagement with the adult child sample 
will take roughly 30 minutes--10 minutes for the enrollment call, 10 
minutes for the Adult Child Consent Form, and 10 minutes to explain and 
complete the Adult Child Information release form. The web-based Adult 
Child Survey will take approximately 15 minutes to complete per 
respondent on average.
    Total Estimated Burden Hours: 5760.2 hours.
