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 child’s 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
child’s 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 “Parent Permission for Child
Participation” 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
