Activities: Proposed Collection;

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
VerDate Mar<15>2010

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: Networking Suicide
Prevention Hotlines—Evaluation of the
Lifeline Policies for Helping Callers at
Imminent Risk (NEW)
This proposed project is a new data
collection that builds on previously
approved data collection activities
[Evaluation of Networking Suicide
Prevention Hotlines Follow-Up
Assessment (OMB No. 0930–0274) and
Call Monitoring of National Suicide
Prevention Lifeline Form (OMB No.
0930–0275)]. This new data collection is
an effort to advance the understanding
of crisis hotline utilization and its
impact. The Substance Abuse and
Mental Health Services
Administration’s (SAMHSA), Center for
Mental Health Services (CMHS) funds a
National Suicide Prevention Lifeline
Network (‘‘Lifeline’’), consisting of a
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.
The overarching purpose of the
proposed Evaluation of the Lifeline
Policies for Helping Callers at Imminent
Risk is to implement data collection to
evaluate hotline counselors’
management of imminent risk callers
and third party callers concerned about
persons at imminent risk, and counselor
adherence to Lifeline Policies and
Guidelines for Helping Callers at
Imminent Risk of Suicide. Specifically,
the Evaluation of the Lifeline Policies
for Helping Callers at Imminent Risk
will collect data, using an imminent risk
form, to inform the network’s
knowledge of the extent to which
PO 00000
Frm 00047
Fmt 4703

counselors are aware of and being
guided by the Lifeline’s imminent risk
guidelines; counselors’ definitions of
imminent risk; the rates of active rescue
of imminent risk callers; types of rescue;
barriers to intervention; and the
circumstances in which active rescue is
initiated, including the caller’s
agreement to receive the intervention.
Clearance is being requested for one
activity to assess the knowledge,
actions, and practices of counselors to
aid callers who are determined to be at
imminent risk for suicide and who may
require active rescue. This evaluation
will allow researchers to examine and
understand the actions taken by
counselors to aid imminent risk callers,
the need for active rescue, and,
ultimately, to improve the delivery of
crisis hotline services to imminent risk
callers. A total of eight centers will
participate in this evaluation. Thus,
SAMHSA is requesting OMB review and
approval of the National Suicide
Prevention Lifeline—Imminent Risk
Form. This activity is distinct from the
Crisis Center Survey data collection,
which targets the entire network of
crisis centers and focuses on a different
domain of questions (specifically, the
makeup, strengths, and needs of crisis
centers.) The information gathered from
the Crisis Center Survey cannot provide
a profile of imminent risk callers or
details about interventions with
imminent risk or third party callers.
Crisis counselors at eight participating
centers will record information
discussed with imminent risk callers on
the Imminent Risk Form, which does
not require direct data collection from
callers. As with previously approved
evaluations, callers will maintain
anonymity. Counselors will be asked to
complete the form for 100% of
imminent risk callers to the eight
centers participating in the evaluation.
This form requests information in 14
content areas, each with multiple subitems and response options. Response
options include open-ended, yes/no,
Likert-type ratings, and multiple choice/
check all that apply. The form also
requests demographic information on
the caller, the identification of the
center and counselor submitting the
form, and the date of the call.
Specifically, the form is divided into the
following sections: (1) Call type, (2)
gender, (3) age, (4) suicidal desire, (5)
suicidal intent, (6) suicidal capability,
(7) buffers to suicide, (8) interventions
agreed to by caller or implemented by
counselor without consent, (9) whether
imminent risk was reduced enough such
that active rescue was not needed, (10)
interventions for third party callers
calling about a person at imminent risk,

(11) if supervisory consultation
occurred, (12) barriers to getting needed
help to the person at imminent risk, (13)
steps taken to confirm emergency
contact was made with person at risk,
and (14) steps taken when emergency
contact was NOT made with person at
risk. The form will take approximately
15 minutes to complete and may be
completed by the counselor during or
after the call. It is expected that a total
of 1,440 forms will be completed by 360
counselors over the two-year data
collection period.
The estimated response burden to
collect this information is annualized
over the requested two-year clearance
period and is presented below:

Proposed Project: Networking Suicide Prevention Hotlines--Evaluation of
the Lifeline Policies for Helping Callers at Imminent Risk (NEW)
This proposed project is a new data collection that builds on
previously approved data collection activities [Evaluation of
Networking Suicide Prevention Hotlines Follow-Up Assessment (OMB No.
0930-0274) and Call Monitoring of National Suicide Prevention Lifeline
Form (OMB No. 0930-0275)]. This new data collection is an effort to
advance the understanding of crisis hotline utilization and its impact.
The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration's
(SAMHSA), Center for Mental Health Services (CMHS) funds a National
Suicide Prevention Lifeline Network (``Lifeline''), consisting of a
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.
The overarching purpose of the proposed Evaluation of the Lifeline
Policies for Helping Callers at Imminent Risk is to implement data
collection to evaluate hotline counselors' management of imminent risk
callers and third party callers concerned about persons at imminent
risk, and counselor adherence to Lifeline Policies and Guidelines for
Helping Callers at Imminent Risk of Suicide. Specifically, the
Evaluation of the Lifeline Policies for Helping Callers at Imminent
Risk will collect data, using an imminent risk form, to inform the
network's knowledge of the extent to which counselors are aware of and
being guided by the Lifeline's imminent risk guidelines; counselors'
definitions of imminent risk; the rates of active rescue of imminent
risk callers; types of rescue; barriers to intervention; and the
circumstances in which active rescue is initiated, including the
caller's agreement to receive the intervention.
Clearance is being requested for one activity to assess the
knowledge, actions, and practices of counselors to aid callers who are
determined to be at imminent risk for suicide and who may require
active rescue. This evaluation will allow researchers to examine and
understand the actions taken by counselors to aid imminent risk

delivery of crisis hotline services to imminent risk callers. A total
