SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Description: The DDDRP beneficiary survey was developed to examine diaper need and outcomes for beneficiaries served by DDDRP. It was piloted under the Formative Data Collections for ACF Program Support information collection (Office of Management and Budget #0970-0531) with the first three cohorts of DDDRP grant recipients. The survey includes an enrollment version, which collects demographic data on the children served and caregivers enrolling the program, along with information about employment, education, and income as well as indicators of diaper need. The follow-up version reduces the number of demographic items to focus on change over time in employment, education, income, and diaper need.
Respondents: Respondents are the caregivers enrolling their family members with diaper needs in DDDRP services.
