A team of researchers from the Urban Institute, Child Trends, and Chapin Hall at the University of Chicago is working with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration for Children and Families (ACF) to see if the Family Unification Program [known as [SITE NAME FOR PROGRAM] in [SITE]] is working. We would like to talk to you because you received a housing voucher through this program.

The researchers on this study will keep all of the information completely private. Only the people doing the research will see any information that identifies you personally. In addition, the transcription service who have also signed pledges of privacy, will hear the interviews to transcribe them. We will report on the things that you tell us but your name will never be used. We will not report anything that could reveal your identity.
Your participation is completely voluntary. That means you may choose to skip any questions you wish or refuse to participate at any time.
