Services Administration
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: Services Accountability
Improvement System—(OMB No. 0930–
0208)—Revision
This revised instrument will allow
SAMHSA to collect information on two
new strategic initiatives—Trauma and
Violence and Military Families. The new
items will be added to the Services
Accountability Improvement System
(SAIS), which is a real-time,
performance management system that
captures information on the substance
abuse treatment and mental health
services delivered in the United States.
A wide range of client and program
information is captured through SAIS
for approximately 600 grantees.
Substance abuse treatment facilities
submit their data on a monthly and even
a weekly basis to ensure that SAIS is an
accurate, up-to-date reflection on the
scope of services delivered and
characteristics of the treatment
population. Over 30 reports on grantee
performance are readily available on the
SAIS website. The reports inform staff
on the grantees’ ability to serve their
target populations and meet their client
and budget targets. SAIS data allow
grantees information that can guide
modifications to their service array.
With the addition of new questions
regarding military families, experiences
with trauma, and experiences with
violence GFA, there is a proposed new
PO 00000
Frm 00039

data collection instrument up for
comment.
Approval of this information
collection will allow SAMHSA to
continue to meet Government
Performance and Results Act of 1993
(GPRA) reporting requirements that
quantify the effects and
accomplishments of its discretionary
grant programs which are consistent
with OMB guidance.
CSAT has increased the number of
questions in the instrument to satisfy
reporting needs. The following
paragraphs present a description of the
changes made to the information
collection. These questions will be
contained in new sections in the GPRA
tool. Section H. Violence and Trauma—
CSAT proposes to add the following 6
items in a new section entitled
‘‘Violence and Trauma’’.
1. Have you ever experienced violence or
trauma in any setting (including community
or school violence; domestic violence;
physical, psychological, or sexual
maltreatment/assault within or outside of the
family; natural disaster; terrorism; neglect; or
traumatic grief)? No, (skip to next section)
2. Did any of these experiences feel so
frightening, horrible, or upsetting that in the
past and/or the present that you:
2a. Have had nightmares about it or
thought about it when you did not want to?
2b. Tried hard not to think about it or went
out of your way to avoid situations that
remind you of it?
2c. Were constantly on guard, watchful, or
easily startled?
2d. Felt numb and detached from others,
activities, or your surroundings?
3. In the past 30 days, how often have you
been hit, kicked, slapped, or otherwise
physically hurt?
• Experiences with Violence and
Trauma—One of SAMHSA’s 10
Strategic Initiatives is trauma and
violence. In order to capture this
information, CSAT is adding six new
questions to be asked of respondents.
This information will help in
SAMHSA’s overall goal of reducing the
behavioral health impacts of violence
and trauma by encouraging substance
abuse treatment programs to focus on
trauma-informed services.
Section L. Military Family and
Deployment—CSAT proposes to add the
following 6 new items in a new section
entitled ‘‘Military Family and
Deployment’’.
1. Have you ever served in the Armed
Forces, in the Reserves, or the National
Guard [select all that apply]? No, (Skip to #2)
1b. Are you currently on active duty in the
Armed Forces, in the Reserves, or the
