1. Introduction

Hello, my name is [ ]. May I please speak with _____?

Thank you for taking the time to talk with me today. I work for Abt SRBI. Abt SRBI is an independent research company and we are helping the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) in the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) with its study of job search assistance strategies. We are conducting interviews with people who agreed to be in a study about a program offered at [NAME OF ORGANIZATION] called [PROGRAM NAME.] You agreed to be part of the study around [RAD]. You may recall signing a consent form and completing a short survey at that time.

This interview will include questions on your job search activities, your current or last job, how many people live with you, and your household income. This interview will take about 20 minutes to complete. When we are done, we will send you a $20 VISA gift card, as a token of appreciation. You received the first $5 token of appreciation at the time that you enrolled in the study. We need to talk with everyone who agreed to participate in the study. Your participation in this study and your experiences will help policymakers and program administrators better understand how to better help people find jobs.

Before we begin the survey, I would like to remind you that your participation in this survey is voluntary. That means you may choose not to answer any question, or you may stop the interview if you wish, but we hope you don’t. Your responses to these questions will in no way affect your participation in any programs or your receipt of any kinds of public benefits or services. I want to assure you that all of your responses on this survey will be kept private; your name will not appear in any written reports we produce. The information you provide will be kept private and only used for this study. According to the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA), an agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. The OMB control number for this collection is 0970-0440 and it expires 02/28/2018. If you have comments regarding this burden estimate or any other aspect of this collection of information, including suggestions for reducing this burden, please contact Karin Martinson, Study Project Director, at (301)-652-7322.Do you have any questions before we begin?
