The Office of Planning, Research, and Evaluation (OPRE) within the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) is proposing data collection activities conducted for the Next Generation of Enhanced Employment Strategies Project (NextGen Project). The project will include experimental impact, descriptive, and cost studies of about 10 programs. This request is for data collection to support these studies. We will use a two-phased approach for our information collection requests. This first phase includes instruments that will be uniform across programs selected for evaluation. The second phase will include materials that will be tailored to programs and therefore finalized after recruitment of specific programs.
