Activities: Submission for OMB
Review; Comment Request
Periodically, the Substance Abuse and

(SAMHSA) will publish a summary of
information collection requests under
OMB review, in compliance with the

Project: Healthy Transitions Initiative
Cross-Site Evaluation—NEW
The Substance Abuse and Mental
Health Services Administration
(SAMHSA), Center of Mental Health
Services is responsible for the cross-site
evaluation of the Cooperative
Agreements for State/Community
Partnerships to Integrate Services and
Supports for Youth and Young Adults
16–25 with Serious Emotional
Disturbances (SED) or Serious Mental
Illness (SMI), and Their Families
(Healthy Transitions Initiative—HTI)
that will collect data on program
implementation and youth and young
adult outcomes in the areas of
education, employment, housing,
mental health and co-occurring
disorders, and involvement with the
juvenile and criminal justice systems.
This cross-site evaluation design
includes a process and an outcome
evaluation and data will be collected
over a 3-year period from 7 grantee sites.
The cross-site evaluation is designed
to address the following questions.
Process Evaluation Questions
1. How closely does implementation
match the plan proposed in the grant?
2. What types of deviation from the
plan occur?
3. What effect do the deviations have
on the planned intervention and
performance assessment?
4. What facilitates a successful
transition between youth and adult
systems?
5. Is there a change from a ‘‘youthguided’’ model to a ‘‘youth and young
adult consumer-driven’’ model?

Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 131 / Monday, July 9, 2012 / Notices
6. What is the extent of interagency
coordination and collaboration?
7. How are state and local-level
systems changing in response to the HTI
implementation? How does state and
local-level policy change affect the
implementation of the Initiative?
8. Who provides services (i.e.,
program staff, agency site)?
9. What services are being provided
(i.e., modality, type, intensity,
duration)?
10. Is there a viable cultural and
linguistic competence plan?
11. What are the individual
characteristics of the youth and young
adults (i.e., who is being served)?
12. In what settings (i.e., system,
community) are they being served?
Outcome Evaluation Questions
1. What is the effect of the HTI
intervention on the participants?
2. What is the effect of the HTI
intervention, compared to a sample of
similar young adults not participating in
the HTI intervention?
3. What program factors are associated
with the observed outcomes?
4. What individual factors are
associated with the observed outcomes?
5. How durable are the effects over 24
months?
Process Evaluation
The process evaluation is designed to
assess the fidelity of grantees to
implement their proposed program
model, and consists of young person
focus groups, young person surveys,
youth mentor focus groups, transitional
program personnel interviews and
surveys, and local and state
administrator interviews. Process
evaluation data will be collected in two
waves during FY 2012 and during FY
2014 and, with the exception of the state
administrator interviews, participants
are not expected to participate more
than one time during the 2 waves of
data collection.
Outcome Evaluation
The outcome evaluation is designed
to assess outcomes of youth and young
adults in regards to education,
employment, housing, mental health
and co-occurring disorders, and
involvement with the juvenile and
criminal justice systems. The outcome
evaluation will utilize both an enhanced
and standard data collection and a
longitudinal cohort design, and will
include a comparative study to assess
the effectiveness of HTI relative to a
similar sample of young persons who
did not receive HTI services. In the
standard data collection protocol,
outcome data will be collected for each
HTI young adult participant, at a
minimum of, at baseline at least every
6 months for up to 24 months for as long
as the participant remains in HTI
services. Enhanced outcome data will be
collected on a subsample of young
adults at 6 month intervals. The
enhanced protocol will continue even
after the young person from the
subsample has left or has been
discharged from HTI services, for up to
24 months. The baseline and follow up
outcome instruments include the
following key indicators: Demographic
information, service use, education,
employment/vocational training,
housing and living situation, clinical
outcomes, behavioral and other health,
trauma-related experiences, life skills,
parenting skills and supports,
involvement with juvenile or criminal
justice systems, and social and peer
relationships. While participants are
enrolled in HTI services, these data
collected by the HTI grantees as
specified in the RFA.
The HTI Data Center (HTI DC) will be
developed for data collection and
management. The HTI DC will be a
secure Web site that allows uploading of
data, real-time access to data by
grantees, and production of automated
reports for the sites. It is flexible for
local use and simplifies the
management, monitoring, and reporting
of data.
The summary burden reflects the
distinct number of respondents, total
annual burden, and total hourly cost of
the study.
