R_CONFRM. (Hello, my name is ________.)
I am calling today about a research study, called the Survey of Family Well-Being sponsored by the Administration for Children and Families (ACF). Several years ago, your family participated in another study sponsored by ACF (called the National Survey of Child and Adolescent Well-Being). We are following up with families who participated in that previous study to see how things may have changed over time. At the time of the previous study, your family indicated interest in future research opportunities.
TI: IF RESPONDENT DOES NOT REMEMBER THE STUDY, PLEASE SAY: The last survey we conducted with your family was conducted in <INSERT YEAR OF LAST NSCAW INTERVIEW>. An interviewer visited your home and interviewed your family using a laptop computer.
Before we begin, I would like to confirm that I have the correct person. Can you please tell me your date of birth?

TI IF NEEDED: The interviewer would have asked questions about your child’s learning, behavior at home or school, and relationships with friends. The interviewer may have provided headphones to you so that you could listen and answer questions privately. Your child (depending on their age at the time of the interview) may have been assessed on their language skills and asked to respond to certain tasks using pictures displayed in an easel. Parents received $50 for participating and children received a gift card for taking part.
1 = YES (GO TO NEW_RESP)

Great, thank you for confirming this information. As I mentioned earlier, RTI talked to your family as a part of a previous study many years ago, the National Survey of Child and Adolescent Well-Being (NSCAW). Now, in this new Survey of Family Well-Being, we are following up with those same participants approximately 7 to 14 years after the last time your family was interviewed. We are interested in interviewing parents of children who were adopted.
[IF PARENT OF MINOR OF ADULT CHILD WHO IS ELIGIBLE FOR INTERVIEW] By doing this study, we hope to understand the experiences of families who have been involved with the child welfare system – both from the perspective of the parents as well as your child. We would like to learn more about families’ experiences with adoption.
[IF PARENT OF CHILD INELLIGBLE TO COMPLETE INTERVIEW] By doing this study, we hope to understand the experiences of families who have been involved with the child welfare system. We would like to learn more about families’ experiences with adoption.

You can participate by telephone or you can complete the survey online. Choosing the online version of the survey allows you to work at your own pace.

SCRIPTS FOR TELEPHONE ADOPTIVE PARENT NON-RESPONDERS
Hello, my name is _________________ calling on behalf of the Administration for Children and Families. My supervisor asked me to follow up with you concerning a call you received from one of our interviewers several days ago. This is about a research study you participated in several years back. We are continuing this research because we are interested in learning about changes over time. I understand you may have some concerns so I wanted to provide a link to our survey where you can find more information about this effort. Please know that you can refuse to answer any questions that you do not want to answer, and as a thank you for your time, we will send you a $30 gift card.
The survey website: <INSERT WEB LINK>
PIN: <INSERT PIN>
For your convenience, I can also send this link and your unique PIN to you via e-mail. Some participants like that option because they can access the survey by simply clicking the link within the body of the e-mail.
What is your e-mail address?
EMAIL: ____________________ [open fill, constraint: 30 letters]
Hello, my name is _____________. I am trying to reach <INSERT R NAME>. May I speak with <R NAME>?
I am contacting you today to follow up on a web survey you started for the Administration for Children and Families. Thank you for taking the time to answer some of our questions. We wanted to follow up to see if you needed any assistance with the survey or if you had any questions about participation. We can see that you started the survey but that you have not fully completed the survey. Do you have any questions that I can answer today about participation?
As a reminder, you can refuse to answer any question that you do not want to answer. When you finish, we will send you a $30 gift card as a thank you.
Before we begin, did you receive and review the information we sent by mail describing this effort in more detail?
TI: IF RESPONDENT SAYS NO, ASK IF THEY WOULD LIKE THE MAILING RESENT TO THEM.
1 = YES (GOTO ByPhone_MatRec)
2 = YES, RECEIVED MATERIALS BUT DID NOT REVIEW (GOTO FULL_CONSENT)
3 = NO, DID NOT RECEIVE MATERIALS (GO TO RESEND MATERIALS)
The interview by telephone will take approximately 30 minutes to complete. Your participation is voluntary, and all information will be kept strictly private, as federal law requires. Your involvement does not affect any benefits or services you or your child receive. You may choose to skip any question in the interview for any reason. The questions will ask about things that may have happened in your child’s life, such as experiencing homelessness, time living in foster care, or running away, and the services received at that time.
Some questions may make you feel uneasy or feel various emotions, such as sadness. If so, we will give you a list of resources that you can contact where there are people who may be able to help to talk with you about your feelings.
There are no costs associated with taking part in this study. You will receive a $30 gift card for taking part in this study.
We keep your responses private to the extent permitted by the law. We keep your interview answers on a secure computer, your responses have an ID number instead of your name. We do not identify by your name. Your information will be combined with information from other people taking part in the study.
There are two important exceptions to the privacy information:
1) If during the interview we think your life or health is in serious danger, we will contact someone qualified to assist you.
2) At some point in the future, a different research company may take over this study. If that happens, with your consent, we would give your information to the other company.
If you decide to participate, we ask you also for your permission to link the responses you give now with the responses that we collected when you and your child participated years ago in the National Survey of Child and Adolescent Well-Being study. Prior to using or releasing this data for future research, we will de-identify it. “De-identify” means that we will remove or code any personal information that could identify you or your child before files are shared with other researchers to ensure that no one should be able to identify you from the information we share.
Do you have any questions, or can we go ahead and get started?
1 = AGREES TO STUDY PARTICIPATION (GOTO Section A)
2 = DOES NOT AGREE TO STUDY PARTICIPATION (GOTO NO_TConsent)
We want to make sure you have a copy of these materials for your records. We can send a copy of the fact sheet and consent form to you either by email or through the mail. Which would you prefer?
1 = SEND VIA E-MAIL (GO TO WEBMAIL_CON)
2 = SEND BY MAIL (GO TO MAIL_REQ)
What is the best e-mail address for you?
TI: EMAIL SHOULD BE FORMATTED AS NAME@HOST.DOMAIN (E.G., YOURNAME@GMAIL.COM)
PLEASE ENTER E-MAIL ADDRESS AND CONFIRM WITH RESPONDENT BY READING IT BACK TO THEM.
