Abstract: The purpose of the FACES data collection is to support the 2007 reauthorization of the Head Start program (P.L. 110–134), which calls for periodic assessments of Head Start’s quality and effectiveness. FACES 2019 extends a previously approved data collection program (OMB number 0970-0151) to a new sample of Head Start programs, families, and children. As with previous rounds, both FACES 2019 and AI/AN FACES 2019 collects information from a national probability sample of Head Start programs to ascertain what progress Head Start has made toward meeting program performance goals. AI/AN FACES 2019 builds on AI/AN FACES 2015 (also OMB number 0970-0151). This change request is for nonsubstantive changes to 10 instruments. Spring 2020 data collection for these instruments began in late February, just before Head Start centers nationwide began closing due to concerns around the novel coronavirus (COVID-19). Because respondents’ responses to survey items could be influenced by the program closures or reduced services, we propose minor changes to the following study instruments: • FACES Parent Survey (Attachment 8), • AI/AN FACES Parent Survey (Attachment 17), • FACES Teacher Child Report (Attachment 10), • AI/AN FACES Teacher Child Report (Attachment 19), • FACES Teacher Survey (Attachment 11), • AI/AN FACES Teacher Survey (Attachment 20), • FACES Program Director Survey (Attachment 12), • AI/AN FACES Program Director Survey (Attachment 21), • FACES Center Director Survey (Attachment 13), and • AI/AN FACES Center Director Survey (Attachment 22).
