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 at (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: Partnerships for
Success Program Evaluation for
Prevention Contract—New
SAMHSA is conducting a cross-site
evaluation of the Strategic Prevention
Framework (SPF) Partnerships for
Success (PFS) program, focusing on the
PFS II cohort (first funded in 2012), PFS
2013 cohort (first funded in 2013), and
PFS 2014 cohort (first funded in 2014)
at both the grantee and community
subrecipient levels. Grantees include
states, jurisdictions, and tribal entities
that subsequently fund community
subrecipients to implement substance
use prevention interventions. The
overall goals of these SPF PFS cohorts
is to prevent the onset and reduce the
progression of substance abuse,
prioritizing underage drinking (UAD)
E:\FR\FM\28OCN1.SGM
28OCN1
64206
Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 208 / Tuesday, October 28, 2014 / Notices
among people age 12 to 20, prescription
drug misuse and abuse (PDM) among
people age 12 to 25, or both; reduce
substance abuse-related problems;
strengthen prevention capacity and
infrastructure at the grantee and
community levels; and leverage,
redirect, and align statewide funding
streams and resources for prevention.
The SPF–PFS cross-site evaluation
broadly aims to document and assess
the factors that contribute to the
effectiveness of the PFS approach to
SAMHSA’s mission of reducing UAD
and PDM, including costs, inputs,
outputs, and contextual factors.
Targeted evaluation outcomes include
both grantee- and community-level
substance use intervening variables
(e.g., perceived risk of binge drinking),
consumption (e.g., past year PDM), and
consequences (e.g., alcohol or
prescription drug overdoses), especially
those related to UAD and PDM.
The SPF–PFS cross-site evaluation
will examine infrastructure, with a
primary focus on monitoring grantees
and community subrecipients to ensure
they follow the SPF process, but will
place a special emphasis on assessing
capacity changes of the community
subrecipients who all should be
purposefully selected for their high
need and low capacity. Another
important aspect of the infrastructure
evaluation for the SPF–PFS cross-site
will be an examination of leveraged
partner relationships. In addition, the
SPF–PFS cross-site evaluation will
collect detailed data about implemented
evidence-based interventions, to
provide a comprehensive typology of
interventions and assess how various
types and combinations impact
outcomes. The SPF–PFS cross-site also
will examine economic issues,
including associations between funding
and outcomes and the cost-effectiveness
of various intervention types and
combinations.
The SPF–PFS cross site evaluation is
expected to have numerous program
and policy implications and outcomes
at the national, state, and community
levels. It will provide valuable
information to the prevention field
about best practices in real world
settings, along with what types of
adaptations community implementers
make to evidence based interventions to
better fit their targeted populations and
settings. SPF–PFS cross-site findings
will provide guidance to governmental
entities and communities as to what
types of interventions should be funded
and implemented to reduce UAD and
PDM. More specifically, this guidance
will include information on what
combinations or types of interventions
work the best. Beyond intervention type
and cost, the SPF–PFS cross-site
evaluation also will provide a valuable
assessment of the importance of
leveraged funding as well as providing
information about the process states,
jurisdictions, tribes, and communities
undergo to leverage funding.
Information and guidance about
leveraging that comes from the SPF–PFS
cross site evaluation will allow the
federal government, state, tribes,
jurisdictions, and local communities to
more effectively and efficiently use their
resources and sustain future prevention
efforts.
Data collection efforts for the
evaluation include a Grantee-Level
Instrument—Revised (GLI–R), a
Community-Level Instrument—Revised
(CLI–R), and a Project Director (PD)
Interview which will collect key
programmatic components
hypothesized to be associated with
program effectiveness, such as leveraged
funding, type of prevention
intervention, costs, etc. The SPF–PFS
cross-site instruments have been
informed by current and previous crosssite evaluation efforts for SAMHSA,
drawing heavily from lessons learned
through prior and currently Office of
Management and Budget (OMB)approved SPF-State Incentive Grant
(SIG) evaluations (OMB No. 0930–0279).
The GLI–R is a web-based instrument
to be completed by the PFS II, 2013, and
2014 grantee project directors (n=52),
once at baseline and once in the final
grant year. Baseline data for the PFS II
and 2013 cohorts will be collected
retrospectively. The GLI–R will provide
categorical, qualitative, and quantitative
data related to coordination of state
efforts, use of strategic plans, access to
data sources, data management,
workforce development, cultural
competence, sharing of evaluation data,
and sustainability.
The CLI–R is a web-based instrument
designed to be completed by the PFS II,
2013, and 2014 subrecipient community
project directors (n=610) to assess
subrecipients’ progress through the SPF
steps, prevention capacity, intervention
implementation, and related funding
and cost measures. The instrument will
provide process data related to
leveraging of funding, in-kind services,
organizational capacity, collaboration
with community partners, data
infrastructure, planned intervention
targets, intervention implementation
(categorization, costs, adaptation,
timing, dosage, and reach), cultural
competence, evaluation, contextual
factors, training and technical assistance
needs, and sustainability. The CLI–R
will be collected semiannually;
however, not all questions will be
answered every time. For instance,
subrecipients will respond to items
related to organizational capacity only
at baseline and final follow-up, whereas
they will respond to intervention
implementation items every six months.
The PD Interview is a semi-structured
telephone interview with grantee project
directors designed to collect more indepth information on subrecipient
selection, criteria for intervention
selection, continuation of SPF–SIG
activities, leveraging of funds,
collaboration, evaluation activities,
cultural competence policies, processes
to impact health disparities, and
challenges faced. The PD Interview will
be collected at the beginning of the
grant, in the third year of the grant, and
in the final year of the grant. Baseline
data for the PFS II and 2013 cohorts will
be collected retrospectively and PFS II
grantees will only participate in the
interview at the beginning of their final
year and at the close of their grant.

Proposed Project: Partnerships for Success Program Evaluation for

SAMHSA is conducting a cross-site evaluation of the Strategic
Prevention Framework (SPF) Partnerships for Success (PFS) program,
focusing on the PFS II cohort (first funded in 2012), PFS 2013 cohort

community subrecipients to implement substance use prevention
interventions. The overall goals of these SPF PFS cohorts is to prevent
the onset and reduce the progression of substance abuse, prioritizing
underage drinking (UAD)
