Take the survey
The Administration for Children & Families (ACF) wants to hear directly from program providers and peer support workers with experience creating and maintaining peer support programs.
ACF promotes the economic and social well-being of children, families, and communities. With a budget of over $70 billion, ACF is the largest human services agency in the federal government and a critical component of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. ACF administers more than 60 programs - including utility assistance, child welfare, child care and Head Start, human trafficking prevention, and refugee assistance services, among others - that are delivered by state, territorial, county, city, and tribal governments, and private, nonprofit, and faith and community-based organizations to help ensure every child and family has the resources they need to thrive.
ACF has launched a new peer support services survey to learn from existing programs and identify interests and gaps that will guide the development of future ACF resources. Findings from this survey will inform various agency activities, help ACF explore emerging areas of need, and improve programs.
The survey is available in English and Spanish and takes about 15 to 20 minutes to complete.
