The Office of Planning, Research and Evaluation (OPRE) in the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) requests OMB clearance for three data collection activities for the Job Search Assistance (JSA) Strategies Evaluation. The goal of the JSA evaluation is to determine which JSA strategies are most effective in transitioning Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) applicants and recipients to work. The impact study will randomly assign individuals to contrasting JSA approaches and then compare their employment and earnings to determine their relative effectiveness in moving TANF recipients to work and increasing their earnings. The implementation study will document services received under each JSA approach, and provide operational lessons. This current request includes baseline data collection, implementation study site visits, and a staff survey.
