Instrument 2 Service_Receipt_Questionnaire

Service Receipt Questionnaire

Start of Block: Consent

Q10 You are invited to participate in a research project about the Affordable Housing and Supportive Services Demonstration in your community. The Administration for Children and Families (ACF) at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services is conducting this study to understand how the program is improving services for residents of this community.

This survey should take about 15 minutes to complete. This survey asks questions about the services you have received in the past six months. Because we want to understand how the program is improving services and outcomes for people over time, we may ask you to complete this survey again at 6 months. Your participation is voluntary, and you have the option to not respond to questions that you choose. Your participation or nonparticipation will not affect your services in this community. Your case worker or service coordinator can assist you in responding to the questions.

The research team will keep your information private. The data from the study will not contain information that can be used to identify you, like your name, contact information, or social security number. If your caseworker helps you complete the survey, you should know that they may have a responsibility to report certain information to the relevant authorities, such as suspected child abuse/neglect.

If you have questions about the study, please contact Juliana Melara via email at Juliana.Melara@acf.hhs.gov or (315) 744-2490. By completing this survey, you consent to participate in the research project.
