The Administration for Children and Families (ACF) at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services seeks approval for a one-time study to examine familial outcomes 8 or more years after a childâs adoption from the child welfare system. The primary objective of this study design is to understand the extent of post adoption instability events that occur in families who have adopted children who have exited the foster care system. Post adoption instability refers to situations in which children who exit foster care to adoptive homes no longer reside with their adoptive parents and includes formal events, such as a childâs reentry into the foster care system, or informal events, such as a child going to live with a grandparent or running away. A second objective is to understand risk and protective factors associated with post adoption instability. The study will conduct web or telephone surveys with adopted youth, young adults, and adults as well as their adoptive parents who were participants in the first or second cohort of the National Survey of Child and Adolescent Well-Being (NSCAW I, II; OMB #0970-0202).
As a result of a recent IRB review, changes were requested to language associated with acquiring parent permission for the participation of a minor child. This language impacted the âParent Permission for Child Participationâ form and Adopted Child telephone script. Consequently, we request nonsubstantive changes to the following attachments.
- Attachment H. Assent and Parent Consent
- Attachment L. Adopted Child Respondent Outreach Pre-Interview and Post-Interview Scripts
