The
Opportunity PassportTM
Participant Survey
Hi! I’m Terry.
And I’m Joe.
We’re here to tell you
all about the
Opportunity PassportTM
Participant Survey.
Hi, I’m Rob. I have some questions…
What is the Opportunity PassportTM
Participant Survey?
It’s a survey used to collect information
from young people enrolled in the
Opportunity PassportTM.
Sometimes it’s called OPPS for short.
OPPS is designed especially for young people.
Young people even helped create it!
Why should I take OPPS?
We want to keep learning as much
as possible about the lives of young
people leaving foster care…
By taking the survey, you are helping
people understand what life is like
for these young people.
For example, the survey asks things like…
Whether you
have a doctor
Where you
live
Whether you
have a job
Who supports
you most
How you pay
for housing
Why is all this information important?
The information can be used to improve
the system and create opportunities for
young people leaving foster care.
For example, one site’s survey results showed that young
people needed some help finishing high school...
So they hired an educational planner!
You can see that taking the survey is really important.

Your time is important too.
You’ll get paid $40 each time you
complete the survey !

And there’s more…

The $40 will be divided equally
between your IDA and debit
accounts ($20 in each account).
And, the $20 in your IDA
account is matched.
So, you actually earn a total of
$60
When do I take the survey?
The first survey should be taken
as soon as possible after you enroll
in the Opportunity PassportTM.
After that, you take it
every April and October.
But why do I need to take the
survey twice a year?
Because it helps us see how things
are changing over time.
How do I take the survey?
It’s online!
You will be given a user ID when you first
enroll in the Opportunity PassportTM.
You need it to take the survey.
I don’t have a computer
with Internet access.
How do I find one?
You could go to
a public library
…or a drop-in center
…or just ask the person helping you
with the Opportunity PassportTM.
How do I get to the survey
on the Internet?
You can access the survey through
either one of these websites:

No matter which website you use,
the survey will be exactly the same.
