Abstract: The Administration for Children and Families (ACF) at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) seeks approval for data collection as a component of the Responding to Intimate Violence in Relationship Programs (RIVIR) project. The goals of this research project are to develop improved theoretical frameworks, screening tools, and surrounding protocols for recognizing and addressing intimate partner violence (IPV) and teen dating violence (TDV) in healthy marriage and relationship education (HMRE) programs with the diverse, middle- to low-income populations they serve. We are studying HMRE programs, and we are referring to them as “healthy relationship” (HR) programs in this project (and consequently throughout this document). This project has already conducted several activities using existing data sources and materials to synthesize information about the current state of the field and to identify potential IPV and TDV screeners and protocols. The project is now planning to test these IPV and TDV screeners and surrounding protocols in HR programs. This Information Collection Request seeks approval for this testing component of the RIVIR project. We plan to test standardized quantitative tools, as well as open-ended scripts that create opportunities for disclosure of IPV or TDV among adults and youth who participate in HR programs. This work will include data collection from approximately 1,200 HR program participants and will be completed in collaboration with approximately four HR grantee organizations funded by ACF’s Office of Family Assistance (OFA) to implement HR programs.
