INTRODUCTION |
Thank you for taking the time to let us speak with you today. This survey is part of the Baby FACES study. We obtained permission from the director of your program to talk with you about your experiences in Early Head Start. We appreciate your time and effort in completing this survey.
This collection of information will be used to describe the characteristics of children and families served by Early Head Start, and the characteristics and features of programs and staff that serve them. Your participation in the study is voluntary. Please be assured that all information you provide will be kept private to the extent permitted by law. The questions I will be asking today have been approved by the Federal Office of Management and Budget, also known as OMB. We are only allowed to ask you these questions and you can only answer them if there is a valid OMB control number. For the questions asked as part of today’s discussion, the OMB control number is 0970–0354 and it expires on 10/31/2021.
The survey will take about 30 minutes to complete.
