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: SAMHSA Recovery
Measurement Pilot Study—NEW
The Substance Abuse and Mental
Health Services Administration
(SAMHSA), Center for Behavioral
Health Statistics and Quality (CBHSQ)
is proposing a pilot test of its Recovery
Measure. As part of its strategic
initiative to support recovery from
mental health and substance use
disorders, SAMHSA has been working
to develop a standard measure of
recovery that can be used as part of its
grantee performance reporting activities.
This project will assess the usability
and psychometric properties of the
proposed tool among a voluntary group
of 2–3 SAMHSA grantees. SAMHSA has
developed a short 20-item instrument
that has been designed to capture all
four of SAMHSA’s proposed
dimensions of recovery—health, home,
purpose, and community. This measure
is comprised of questions from the
World Health Organization’s Quality of
Life tool (WHO QOL 8) and SAMHSA’s
existing set of Government Performance
and Results Act (GPRA) measures. Data
will be collected at two time points—at
client intake and at six-months postintake. These are two points in time
during which SAMHSA grantees
routinely collect data on the individuals
participating in their programs.
Approval of these items by the Office
of Management and Budget (OMB) will
allow SAMHSA to further refine the
Recovery Measure developed for this
project. It will also help determine
whether the Recovery Measure is added
to SAMHSA’s set of required
performance measurement tools
designed to aid in tracking recovery
among clients receiving services from
the Agency’s funded programs.
Based on current funding and
planned fiscal year 2014 notice of
funding announcements the following
SAMHSA grantee programs will be
selected to participate in this pilot
study: Behavioral Health Treatment
Court Collaborative (BHTCC);
Cooperative Agreements to Benefit
Homeless Individuals (CABHI); and the
Primary and Behavioral Health Care
Integration (PBHCI). Data collected will
be used by individuals at three different
levels: the SAMHSA administrator and
staff, the Center administrators and
government project officers, and
grantees.
The total estimated respondent
burden is 60 hours for the period from
September 2014 through March 2015.

respondent burden estimate.

The Substance Abuse and Mental
Health Services Administration’s
(SAMHSA) Center for Mental Health
Services (CMHS) intends to continue to
conduct a multi-site assessment for the
Mental Health Care Provider Education
in HIV/AIDS Program. The education
programs funded under this cooperative
agreement are designed to disseminate
knowledge of the psychological and
neuropsychiatric sequelae of HIV/AIDS
to both traditional (e.g., psychiatrists,
psychologists, nurses, primary care
physicians, medical students, and social
workers) and non-traditional (e.g.,
clergy, and alternative health care
workers) first-line providers of mental
health services, in particular to
providers in minority communities.
The multi-site assessment is designed
to assess the effectiveness of particular
training curricula, document the
integrity of training delivery formats,
and assess the effectiveness of the
various training delivery formats.
Analyses will assist CMHS in
documenting the numbers and types of
traditional and non-traditional mental
health providers accessing training; the
content, nature and types of training
participants receive; and the extent to
which trainees experience knowledge,
skill and attitude gains/changes as a
result of training attendance. The multisite data collection design uses a twotiered data collection and analytic
strategy to collect information on (1) the
organization and delivery of training,
and (2) the impact of training on
participants’ knowledge, skills and
abilities.
Minor changes to the feedback form
instruments are requested based on
based on a review and assessment of
participant feedback form data collected
over the past two years of the contract.
CMHS identified some outdated and
rarely-used response options for all
participant response forms and the
session reporting form and removed
these items from the individual data
collection tools. Table 1 shows the
response options removed from the
previous iterations of the MHCPE
participant feedback forms and session
reporting form.
