through telephone conversations or in-person interviews held with 
administrators and program staff at the State and sub-awardee level. 
The data collection instrument will focus on information related to 
program context, administration, and design. This includes, but is not 
limited to: Program goals and strategy/approach, program setting, 
population characteristics, state-level requirements and processes, 
program monitoring, and training and technical assistance.
