Agency Information Collection
Activities: Submission for OMB
Review; Comment Request
Periodically, the Substance Abuse and
Mental Health Services Administration
(SAMHSA) will publish a summary of
information collection requests under
OMB review, in compliance with the
Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C.
Chapter 35). To request a copy of these
documents, call the SAMHSA Reports
Clearance Officer on (240) 276–1243.
Project: Call Monitoring of National
Suicide Prevention Lifeline Form—
NEW
The Substance Abuse and Mental
Health Services Administration’s
(SAMHSA), Center for Mental Health
Services has funded a National Suicide
Prevention Lifeline Network, consisting
of a single toll-free telephone number
that routes calls from anywhere in the
United States to a network of local crisis
centers. In turn, the local centers link
callers to local emergency, mental
health, and social service resources.
To ensure quality, the vast majority of
crisis centers conduct on-site
monitoring of selected calls by
supervisors or trainers using
unobtrusive listening devices. To
monitor the quality of calls and to
inform the development of training for
networked crisis centers, the National
Suicide Prevention Lifeline propose to
remotely monitor calls routed to seven
crisis centers during the shifts of
consenting staff. The procedure will be
anonymous, in that neither staff nor
callers will be identified on the Call
Monitoring Form. The monitor, a
trained crisis worker, will code the type
of problem presented by the caller, the
elements of a suicide risk assessment
that are completed by the crisis worker,
as well as what action plan is developed
with and/or what referral(s) are
provided to the caller. No centers will
be identified in reports.
During the shifts of consenting crisis
staff, a recording will inform callers that
some calls may be monitored for quality
assurance purposes. Previous
comparisons of matched centers that did
and did not play the recording found no
difference in hang-up rates before the
calls were answered or within the first
15 seconds of the calls.
The seven centers to be monitored
will be selected based on the geographic
region(s) they serve. Once a center has

agreed to participate, the crisis workers
will be provided an Informed Consent
Form describing the purpose and
procedures of the monitoring process
and inviting them to participate. The
Form also informs workers that they are
free to participate or not, that they may
withdraw their acceptance to participate
at any time, and that if they choose not
to participate, no calls during their shift
will be monitored.
A total of 180 calls will be monitored
during the first 5-month period. One

The Substance Abuse and Mental

of a single toll-free telephone number
that routes calls from anywhere in the
United States to a network of local crisis
centers. In turn, the local centers link
callers to local emergency, mental
health, and social service resources.
With input from multiple experts in
the field of suicide prevention, the
project created a telephone interview
survey to collect data on follow-up
assessments of consenting individuals
calling the Lifeline network. The
‘‘Evaluation of Networking Suicide
Prevention Hotlines Follow-Up
Assessment’’ will provide an empirical

necessary to optimize public health
efforts to prevent suicidal behavior.
Seven hundred and twenty callers
will be recruited from seven of the
approximately 100 crisis hotline centers
that participate in the Lifeline network.
Trained crisis workers will conduct the
follow-up telephone assessment (‘‘Crisis
Hotline Telephone Follow up
Assessment’’) within one month of the
initial call. Assessments will be
conducted only one time for each client.
Strict measures to ensure confidentiality
will be followed.
The resulting data will measure (1)
suicide risk status at the time of and
since the call, (2) depressive symptoms
at follow-up, (3) service utilization since
the call, (4) barriers to service access,
and (5) the clients perception of the
efficacy of the hotline intervention. The
