The purpose of this clinical trial is to evaluate the performance of the sickle cell disease (SCD) electronic diary in people with SCD who are on treatment that will change SCD and those not on such a treatment. SCD is a type of condition when there are fewer red blood cells to carry oxygen around the body. This disease can be passed on from parent to child and may cause pain, infections and damage to organs. This study is seeking participants who: * are confirmed with SCD * are on a stable regimen of disease changing treatment or have not received any disease changing treatment before the start of the study and do not plan any changes in their treatment during the 6-month study observation period For 6 months, participants will be asked to complete a daily electronic diary to report on their experience in the past 24 hours with sickle cell pain crisis (if they got any treatment and what medications they took), worst pain, worst tiredness, and their ability to perform usual physical activities. We will compare the experiences of people who are taking SCD-modifying therapy to those that are not taking a SCD-modifying therapy.

For over two decades, the Head Start Family and Child Experiences Survey (FACES) has been an invaluable source of information on the Head Start program and the children and families it serves. FACES 2019 extends a previously conducted data collection to a new sample of Head Start programs, families, and children. Mathematica and its partners, Juárez and Associates, Educational Testing Service, and consultants Margaret Burchinal and Martha Zaslow, developed instruments and data collection procedures to assess the school readiness skills of 2,260 children and survey their parents and Head Start teachers in fall 2019 and spring 2020 and conduct observations in Head Start classrooms and survey Head Start staff in spring 2020 and spring 2022. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, spring 2020 child assessments and classroom observations were canceled while surveys of parents and staff continued. The pandemic and a heightened interest in the Head Start workforce brought a shift in approach and focus to spring 2022 data collection activities. As a result, those activities are not described here and instead are listed under NCT06512740.
