conduct online surveys of grantee
Project Directors. This is a new project
request targeting the collection of
primary, organizational-level data
through an online survey with grantee
Project Directors. The grantee programs
that will be involved are focused on
integrating HIV and Hepatitis primary
care, substance abuse, and behavioral
health services and include: (1) TI–12–
007 Targeted Capacity Expansion HIV
Program: Substance Abuse Treatment
for Racial/Ethnic Minority Populations
at High-Risk for HIV/AIDS (TCE–HIV)
grantees; (2) TI–14–013 Minority AIDS
Initiative—Continuum of Care (MAICoC) grantees; (3) TI–13–011 Targeted
Capacity Expansion HIV Program:
Substance Abuse Treatment for Racial/
Ethnic Minority Women at High Risk for
HIV/AIDS (TCE–HIV: Minority Women)
grantees; and (4) TI–15–006 Targeted
Capacity Expansion: Substance Use
Disorder Treatment for Racial/Ethnic
Minority Populations at High-Risk for
HIV/AIDS (TCE–HIV: High Risk
Populations) grantees.
The goals of the grantee programs are
to integrate behavioral health treatment,
prevention, and HIV medical care
services for racial/ethnic minority
populations at high risk for behavioral
health disorders and at high risk for or
living with HIV. The grantee programs
serve many different populations
including African American, Hispanic/
Latina and other racial/ethnic
minorities, young men who have sex
with men (YMSM), men who have sex
with men (MSM) and bisexual men,
adult heterosexual women and men,
transgender persons, and people with
substance use disorder. Project Director
Surveys conducted with grantees are an
integral part of evaluation efforts to: (1)
Assess the impact of the SAMHSAfunded HIV programs in: Reducing
behavioral health disorders and HIV
infections; increasing access to
substance use disorder (SUD) and
mental disorder treatment and care;
improving behavioral and mental health
outcomes; and reducing HIV-related
disparities in four specific grant
programs; (2) Describe the different
integrated behavioral health and
medical program models; and (3)
Determine which program types or
models are most effective in improving
behavioral health and clinical outcomes.
SAMHSA will request one web-based
survey to be completed by each of the
152 grantee Project Directors. Project
Directors may request assistance from
another project administrator to help
them complete the survey. The webbased survey will be conducted once for
grantees in each grant program, in the
grantee organization’s final year of TCE–
HIV (TI–12–007, TI–13–011, TI–15–006)
or MAI CoC (TI–14–013) funding, with
an annual average of 50 grantees/100
respondents per year. Project Directors
will provide information on their
program’s integration of HIV and
Hepatitis medical and primary care into
behavioral health services and project
implementation. While participating in
the evaluation is a condition of the
grantees’ funding, participating in the
survey process is voluntary. The
questionnaire is designed to collect
information about: Grantee
organizational structure, outreach and
engagement, services provided through
the grant-funded project, coordination
of care, behavioral health/medical care
integration, funding and project
sustainability, staffing and staff
development.

Proposed Project: SAMHSA
Transformation Accountability (TRAC)
Data Collection Instrument (OMB No.
093–0285)—Revised
The Substance Abuse and Mental
Health Services Administration
(SAMHSA), Center for Mental Health
Services (CMHS) is proposing to modify
one of its current Transformation
Accountability (TRAC) system data
collection tools to include previously
piloted recovery measures. Specifically,
this revision entails the incorporation of
twelve recovery measures into the
current CMHS NOMs Adult Client-level
Measures for Discretionary Programs
Providing Direct Services data
collection tool. 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 revision will add eight questions
from the World Health Organization’s
(WHO) Quality of Life (QOL) to
SAMHSA’s existing set of Government

measures along with four additional
measures that support the WHO QOL–
