Proposed Project: Access to Recovery
(ATR) Program Cross-Site Evaluation—
New
SAMHSA’s Center for Substance
Abuse Treatment (CSAT) is conducting
a cross-site evaluation of the Access to
Recovery (ATR) program. CSAT’s ATR
program is a competitive, discretionary
grant awarded to 18 States, the District
of Columbia, and five Tribal
Organizations to develop and operate a
voucher-based substance abuse
treatment financing system. The
primary focus of the ATR program is to
improve access by utilizing treatment
payment vouchers, to expand
independent client choice of treatment
providers, to expand access to both
clinical treatment and recovery support
services (RSS), and to increase
substance abuse treatment capacity by
increasing the array of faith-based and
community organizations through
which clinical treatment and RSS can be
offered. The purpose of the cross-site
evaluation is to examine how grantees
implement the ATR program and the
program’s impact on existing treatment
systems and client outcomes and to
inform future policy on the
development and implementation of
substance abuse treatment voucher
systems.
Two surveys will be administered as
part of this evaluation. One survey will
be administered to a sample of clients
participating in the ATR program and a
second survey will be administered to
service organizations participating in a
grantee’s ATR program. The client
survey will be administered following
the 6-month post-intake Government
Performance and Results Act (GPRA)
follow-up (OMB No. 0930–0208), using
the same data collection methods as the
GPRA data collection to reduce client
burden. GPRA data collection methods
vary by ATR grantee; typically, grantees
collect GPRA data in-person, but in
special cases they may use a telephone
interview. The ATR client survey
includes questions on client choice,
ease of obtaining services through an
ATR program, and client satisfaction.
The provider survey will be
administered through a Web survey
instrument and will target a key
informant in the organization to
complete the survey. Providers unable
to access or complete the Web survey
will be provided with a paper version of
the survey. The provider survey
includes questions on organizational
characteristics, satisfaction with the
ATR program, and experience
participating in the ATR program.
