The goal of the HBCC PPE study is to examine the experiences, strengths, resources, and strategies used by home-based child care providers to serve and support equitable outcomes for children and families. The study is designed to explore the experiences of family, friend, and neighbor providers (i.e., home-based child care providers who are legally exempt from state licensing or other regulations that apply to non-custodial care of children in the provider’s own home.) The study uses semi-ethnographic, open-ended methods (including semi-structured interviews, and photo and audio journals) to generate rich information about the experiences of study respondents. The study team pretested the study protocol, methods, and materials with a small group of Spanish-speaking providers (less than 10) during the public comment period and identified several potential changes to the language and materials that would help to reduce burden or improve understanding among respondents. In addition, the project’s Internal Review Board (IRB) completed its review of the study application and requested changes to consent procedures and language to improve informed consent among potential study participants. In response to findings from pretesting with Spanish-speaking providers and to edits identified by the project’s IRB, this nonsubstantive change request includes the following: 1. Updates to consent statements and forms (English and Spanish) 2. Slight wording changes to instrument introduction text and questions (English and Spanish) 3. Minor revisions to participant recruitment materials (English) 4. Spanish versions of all study appendices The proposed modifications to instruments and recruitment materials are summarized in more detail in the nonsubstantative change memo. We are not proposing any adjustments to the data collection approach or approved time period. These changes do not affect burden estimates or meaningfully alter the instrument content for respondents.
