ADAPT-HV


The Assessing and Describing Practice Transitions Among Evidence-Based Home Visiting Programs in Response to the COVID-19 Public Health Emergency (ADAPT-HV) project is funded by the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) through a contract with The Policy & Research Group (PRG) and Mathematica.


What is the purpose of this questionnaire? This questionnaire aims to understand home visitors’ use of informal contacts over each learning cycle of the ADAPT-HV study.


There are no risks or benefits to your participation. Your participation in this questionnaire is voluntary. You have the right to skip any question or end your participation at any time. There is no penalty if you choose not to participate in this questionnaire.


The questionnaire should take roughly 10–15 minutes to complete.


In order to know who has completed this questionnaire, we ask for your name and the name of the agency for which you work. This information will be removed when data are saved. We will not attribute any responses you give in the questionnaire to you personally and will not use your name when results from the research are shared. Only the research team will have access to individual responses. Your responses will be combined with other responses before results are reviewed. All data will be stored safely and destroyed at the end of the study.


If you have any questions about the study, please contact Teresa Smith at The Policy & Research Group (teresa@policyandresearch.com or (225) 281-3783).


If you have questions about your rights as a research volunteer, you can call Health Media Lab Institutional Review Board at (202) 549-1982.

Public Burden Statement: This information collection is part of the Assessing and Describing Practice Transitions Among Evidence-Based Home Visiting Programs in Response to the COVID-19 Public Health Emergency Study, which aims to identify and study practices implemented in response to the COVID-19 public health emergency that support evidence-based practice and have the potential to enhance home visiting programming. One of the practices the study identified is the use of informal contacts. Informal contacts are any contacts between a home visitor and family that occur between formal home visits (e.g., text messages, emails). The purpose of this information collection is to better understand, through rapid cycle learning, how MIECHV-funded home visiting programs can use informal contacts to improve service delivery and promote caregiver’s engagement and satisfaction. The OMB control number for this information collection is 0906-0098 and it is valid until 7/31/2027. This information collection is voluntary. Data will be private to the extent permitted by the law. The time required to complete this information collection is estimated to average less than 1 hour per response, including the time to review instructions, search existing data resources, gather the data needed, to review and complete the information collection. If you have comments concerning the accuracy of the time estimate(s) or suggestions for improving this form, please write to: HRSA Information Collection Clearance Officer, 5600 Fishers Lane, Room 14N39, Rockville, Maryland, 20857 or paperwork@hrsa.gov, Attention: Information Collections Clearance Officer.

  1. [summarize strategy 1]

  2. [summarize strategy 2, if applicable]

*Contents of this box and some questions will be customized for each site based on the strategies they identified to test in collaboration with the ADAPT-HV study team during staff focus groups conducted during Phases 1, 2, and/or 3.*
