    Proposed Project: National Survey of Single Parent Caregivers--OMB 
No. 0990-NEW-OWH; HHS, Office on Women's Health.
    Abstract: The National Survey of Single Parent Caregivers will 
measure the size, characteristics, and unmet needs of single parents 
providing care for an adult family member or friend. Single parent 
caregivers provide support services and financial assistance for two 
generations without the aid of a married partner. Survey results will 
be used to develop national estimates of the costs borne by single 
parent caregivers, their psychosocial burden, stress, and diminished 
social and leisure opportunities, and suggest policy options that 
mitigate the burden on single parent caregivers. The survey will be 
administered once under a one-year request, and will contact 
individuals using computer-assisted telephone interviewing (CATI) 
methods.
