Grant Description: The Office of Planning, Research and Evaluation (OPRE) within the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) announces the availability of funds to support the design and development of a website to act as a clearinghouse for research and evaluation studies on low-income employment and family self-sufficiency. The aim of the website is to disseminate quality research and evaluation products and enhance communication among researchers and a wide variety of users (e.g. Federal, state and local administrators and legislators, policy makers and service providers). The topics to be covered by the clearinghouse include research and evaluation on Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) and low-income populations in the areas of: 1) self-sufficiency and employment and 2) family and child well-being. A secondary purpose of the website will be to facilitate an ongoing dialogue among users on a broad range of issues concerning the research placed in the clearinghouse.
