SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the
PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501–3520), Federal
agencies must obtain approval from the
Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) for each collection of
information they conduct or sponsor.
‘‘Collection of information’’ is defined
in 44 U.S.C. 3502(3) and 5 CFR
1320.3(c) and includes agency request
or requirements that members of the
public submit reports, keep records, or
provide information to a third party.
Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the PRA (44
U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)) requires Federal
agencies to provide a 60-day notice in
the Federal Register concerning each
proposed collection of information,
including each proposed extension of an
existing collection of information,
before submitting the collection to OMB
for approval. To comply with this
requirement, AoA is publishing notice
of the proposed collection of
information set forth in this document.
With respect to the following collection
of information, AoA invites comments
on: (1) Whether the proposed collection
of information is necessary for the
proper performance of AoA’s functions,
including whether the information will
have practical utility; (2) the accuracy of
AoA’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used; (3)
ways to enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and (4) ways to minimize the
burden of the collection of information
on respondents, including through the
use of automated collection techniques
when appropriate, and other forms of
information technology.
The Administration on Aging (AoA)
plans to continue an existing approved
collection of information for semiannual and final reports pursuant to
requirements in Title IV of the Older
Americans Act. Through its Title IV

Proposed Project: National Evaluation
of the Comprehensive Community
Mental Health Services for Children
and Their Families Program: Phase V
(OMB No. 0930–0280)—Revision
The Substance Abuse and Mental
Health Services Administration
(SAMHSA), Center for Mental Health
Services (CMHS), is responsible for the
National Evaluation of the
comprehensive Community Mental
Health Services for Children and Their
Families Program, which collects data
on child mental health outcomes, family
life, and service system development
and performance. Data will be collected
on 30 service systems and roughly 8,810
children and families.
The data collection for this evaluation
will be conducted for a three-year
period. The core of service system data
will be collected twice (every 18 to 24
months) during the three-year
evaluation period. A sustainability
survey will be conducted in selected
years. Service delivery and system
variables of interest include the
following: maturity of system of care
development; adherence to the system
of care program model; services
received by youth and their families,
and the costs of those services; and
consumer service experience.
The length of time that individual
families will participate in the study
ranges from 18 to 36 months depending
on when they enter the evaluation.
Child and family outcomes of interest
will be collected at intake and during
subsequent follow-up interviews at sixmonth intervals. Client service
experience information is collected at
these follow-up interviews. Measures
included in an outcome interview are
determined by the type of assessment
(intake or follow-up), child’s age, and
whether the respondent is the caregiver
or a youth.
The outcome measures include the
following: Child symptomatology and
functioning, family functioning,
material resources, and caregiver strain.
The caregiver interview package
includes the Caregiver Information
Questionnaire, Child Behavior
Checklist, Behavioral and Emotional
Rating Scale (BERS), Education
Questionnaire, Columbia Impairment
Questionnaire, Living Situations
Questionnaire, Family Life
Questionnaire, and Caregiver Strain
Questionnaire at intake, and also
E:\FR\FM\07APN1.SGM
07APN1
15731
Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 65 / Tuesday, April 7, 2009 / Notices
includes the Multi-service Sector
Contacts Form, Culturally Competence
and Service Provision Questionnaire
and the Youth Services Survey (a
national outcome measurement tool) at
follow-up assessments. Caregivers of
children under age 6 complete the
Vineland Screener to assess
development, and do not complete the
BERS. The Youth Interview package
includes the Youth Information
Questionnaire, Revised Children’s
Manifest Anxiety Scale, Reynolds
Depression Scale, BERS (youth version),
Delinquency Survey, Substance Use
Survey, GAIN–Quick: Substance
Dependence Scale, and Youth Services
Survey (youth version).
The evaluation also includes three
special studies: (1) An evidence-based
practices study that examines the effects
of various factors on the implementation
and use of evidence-based treatments
and approaches in system of care
communities; (2) A cultural and
linguistic competence study that
examines the extent to which the
cultural and linguistic characteristics of
communities influence program
implementation and provider
adaptation of evidence-based
treatments, and provider service
delivery decisions based on provider
culture and language; and (3) An
evaluation of the communities’ use of
reports produced by the national
evaluation for continuous quality
improvement. The national evaluation
measures address the national outcome
measures for mental health programs as
currently established by SAMHSA.
Table 1 summarizes which national
evaluation components are unchanged
from the original 2006 submission and
which are new or changed.

5 Approximate number of caregivers with children 3 and older, based on Phase V data submitted as of 12/08.
6 Approximate number of caregivers with children 5 or under, based on Phase V data submitted as of 12/08.
7 Based on Phase III and IV finding that approximately 60 percent of the children in the evaluation were 11 years old or older.
8 Respondents only complete Service Experience Study measures at follow-up points. See Footnote #3 for the explanation about the average
number of responses per respondent.
9 Staff will enter data on flexible funds expenditures into a Web-based application or will recode existing data on flexible funds expenditures to
match the Flex Funds Data Dictionary format. Each community will use flexible funds expenditures on average for approximately one-quarter of
the estimated 356 children/youth enrolled, suggesting a total of 89 children/youth will receive services from flexible funds per community. Thus,
there will be data entered for 89*30 = 2,670 children/youth using the Flex Funds Data Dictionary.
10 Assumes that three expenditures, on average, will be spent on each child/youth receiving flexible fund benefits.
11 Staff will collect paper-based forms from agencies and enter them into a Web-based application or will extract data from agencies’ existing
data systems. Staff will recode data to match the Services and Costs Data Dictionary format. Service and costs records will be compiled for all
356*30=10,680 children/youth enrolled.
12 Assumes that each child/youth will have 100 service episodes, on average, during his/her time in a system of care.
13 This survey will be administered at 5 sites funded in 2006, 25 sites funded in 2005, 2 sites funded in 2000, and 20 sites funded in 1999.

Title: Building Strong Families (BSF)
Demonstration and Evaluation Impact
Study Second Follow-up.
OMB No.: 0970–0304.
Description: The Administration for
Children and Families (ACF), U.S.
Department of Health and Human
Services (HHS), anticipates continuing
data collection for the 15-month followup surveys of the Building Strong
Families (BSF) Demonstration and
Evaluation. Data collection will
continue for an additional 6 months
beyond the current date of expiration
(July 31, 2009).
BILLING CODE 4162–20–P
This data collection is a part of the
BSF evaluation, which is an important
opportunity to learn if well-designed
interventions can help low-income
couples develop the knowledge and
relationship skills that research has
shown are associated with healthy
marriages. The BSF evaluation uses an
experimental design that randomly
assigns couples who volunteer to
participate in BSF programs to a
program or control group.
Materials for the original 15-month
data collection effort, previously
submitted to OMB, covered impact and
implementation data collections. Data
collection for the impact study is
complete. ACF anticipates collecting
data for an additional 6 months in order
to complete data collection for the entire
sample of participants.
Respondents: Couples enrolled in the
BSF evaluation, including program and
control groups.

Agency Information Collection Activities: Proposed Collection;
Comment Request
In compliance with Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the Paperwork Reduction
Act of 1995 concerning opportunity for public comment on proposed
collections of information, the Substance Abuse and Mental Health
Services Administration (SAMHSA) will publish periodic summaries of
proposed projects. To request more information on the proposed projects
or to obtain a copy of the information collection plans, call the
SAMHSA Reports Clearance Officer on (240) 276-1243.
Comments are invited on: (a) Whether the proposed collections of
information are necessary for the proper performance of the functions
of the agency, including whether the information shall have practical
utility; (b) the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information; (c) ways to enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and (d) ways
to minimize the burden of the collection of information on respondents,
including through the use of automated collection techniques or other
forms of information technology.
Proposed Project: National Evaluation of the Comprehensive Community
Mental Health Services for Children and Their Families Program: Phase V
(OMB No. 0930-0280)--Revision
The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration
(SAMHSA), Center for Mental Health Services (CMHS), is responsible for
the National Evaluation of the comprehensive Community Mental Health
Services for Children and Their Families Program, which collects data
on child mental health outcomes, family life, and service system
development and performance. Data will be collected on 30 service
systems and roughly 8,810 children and families.
The data collection for this evaluation will be conducted for a
three-year period. The core of service system data will be collected
twice (every 18 to 24 months) during the three-year evaluation period.
A sustainability survey will be conducted in selected years. Service
delivery and system variables of interest include the following:
maturity of system of care development; adherence to the system of care
program model; services received by youth and their families, and the
costs of those services; and consumer service experience.
The length of time that individual families will participate in the
study ranges from 18 to 36 months depending on when they enter the
evaluation. Child and family outcomes of interest will be collected at
intake and during subsequent follow-up interviews at six-month
intervals. Client service experience information is collected at these
follow-up interviews. Measures included in an outcome interview are
determined by the type of assessment (intake or follow-up), child's
age, and whether the respondent is the caregiver or a youth.
The outcome measures include the following: Child symptomatology
and functioning, family functioning, material resources, and caregiver
strain. The caregiver interview package includes the Caregiver
Information Questionnaire, Child Behavior Checklist, Behavioral and
Emotional Rating Scale (BERS), Education Questionnaire, Columbia
Impairment Questionnaire, Living Situations Questionnaire, Family Life
Questionnaire, and Caregiver Strain Questionnaire at intake, and also
[[Page 15731]]
includes the Multi-service Sector Contacts Form, Culturally Competence
and Service Provision Questionnaire and the Youth Services Survey (a
national outcome measurement tool) at follow-up assessments. Caregivers
of children under age 6 complete the Vineland Screener to assess
development, and do not complete the BERS. The Youth Interview package
includes the Youth Information Questionnaire, Revised Children's
Manifest Anxiety Scale, Reynolds Depression Scale, BERS (youth
version), Delinquency Survey, Substance Use Survey, GAIN-Quick:
Substance Dependence Scale, and Youth Services Survey (youth version).
The evaluation also includes three special studies: (1) An
evidence-based practices study that examines the effects of various
factors on the implementation and use of evidence-based treatments and
approaches in system of care communities; (2) A cultural and linguistic
competence study that examines the extent to which the cultural and
linguistic characteristics of communities influence program
implementation and provider adaptation of evidence-based treatments,
and provider service delivery decisions based on provider culture and
language; and (3) An evaluation of the communities' use of reports
produced by the national evaluation for continuous quality improvement.
The national evaluation measures address the national outcome measures
for mental health programs as currently established by SAMHSA.

unchanged from the original 2006 submission and which are new or

\1\ An average of 21 stakeholders in up to 30 grant communities will complete the System of Care Assessment
interview. These stakeholders will include site administrative staff, providers, agency representatives,
family representatives, and youth.
\2\ Number of respondents across 30 grantees. Average based on a 5 percent attrition rate at each data
collection point.
\3\ Average number of responses per respondent is a weighted average of the possible numbers of responses per
respondent for communities beginning data collection in FY2007 and FY2008. The maximum numbers of responses
per respondent are for 24 communities beginning data collection in FY2007, 1 follow-up data collection point
remaining for children recruited in year 2 (of grant community funding), 3 for children recruited in year 3, 4
for children recruited in year 4, and 4 for children recruited in year 5. The maximum numbers of responses per
respondent are, for 6 communities beginning data collection in FY2008, 3 follow-up data collection points
remaining for children recruited in year 2 (of grant community funding), 5 for children recruited in year 3, 6
for children recruited in year 4, and 4 for children recruited in year 5.
\4\ Approximate number of caregivers with children over age 5, based on Phase V data submitted as of 12/08.
\5\ Approximate number of caregivers with children 3 and older, based on Phase V data submitted as of 12/08.
\6\ Approximate number of caregivers with children 5 or under, based on Phase V data submitted as of 12/08.
\7\ Based on Phase III and IV finding that approximately 60 percent of the children in the evaluation were 11
years old or older.
\8\ Respondents only complete Service Experience Study measures at follow-up points. See Footnote 3 for
the explanation about the average number of responses per respondent.
\9\ Staff will enter data on flexible funds expenditures into a Web-based application or will recode existing
data on flexible funds expenditures to match the Flex Funds Data Dictionary format. Each community will use
flexible funds expenditures on average for approximately one-quarter of the estimated 356 children/youth
enrolled, suggesting a total of 89 children/youth will receive services from flexible funds per community.
Thus, there will be data entered for 89*30 = 2,670 children/youth using the Flex Funds Data Dictionary.
\10\ Assumes that three expenditures, on average, will be spent on each child/youth receiving flexible fund
benefits.
\11\ Staff will collect paper-based forms from agencies and enter them into a Web-based application or will
extract data from agencies' existing data systems. Staff will recode data to match the Services and Costs Data
Dictionary format. Service and costs records will be compiled for all 356*30=10,680 children/youth enrolled.
\12\ Assumes that each child/youth will have 100 service episodes, on average, during his/her time in a system
of care.
\13\ This survey will be administered at 5 sites funded in 2006, 25 sites funded in 2005, 2 sites funded in
2000, and 20 sites funded in 1999.
