Project: Mental Health Block Grant Ten
Percent Set Aside Evaluation of First
Episode Psychosis—NEW
The Substance Abuse and Mental
Health Services Administration
(SAMHSA) is directed by Congress
through its FY 2016 Omnibus bill,
Public Law 114–113, to set aside ten
percent of the Mental Health Block
Grant (MHBG) allocation for each state
to support evidence-based programs that
provide treatment for those with early
serious mental illness (SMI) and a first
episode psychosis (FEP)—an increase
from the previous five percent set aside.
The purpose of this 3-year evaluation
is to assess the relationship between
fidelity of selected coordinated specialty
care (CSC) programs supported with
Mental Health Block Grant (MHBG) Ten
Percent Set Aside funding and
participant outcomes. There are
approximately 250 sites implementing
CSC programs with MHBG ten percent
set aside funding. All 250 sites will be
asked to report on their implementation
through an online survey. Up to 32 CSC
sites across the nation will be recruited
to participate in a process and outcome
evaluation. The data collection activities
for the Mental Health Block Grant Ten
Percent Set Aside Evaluation will
include the following seven data
collection activities:
D Site Survey: This is a one-time
online survey with site directors of all
250 centers using MHBG ten percent set
aside funding (not just those included in
the evaluation). The survey focuses on
how centers across the U.S. are
providing services to individuals with
First Episode Psychosis (FEP) in their
communities.
D Agency Director/Administrator
Interview: This semi-structured
interview will be conducted twice with
Agency Director/Administrators at each
of the 32 CSC sites in the evaluation
about the successes and challenges
involved in implementing the CSC
program.
D Coordinated Specialty Care (CSC)
Staff Interview: This semi-structured
interview will be conducted twice with
CSC Staff at each of the 32 CSC sites in
the evaluation about the successes and
challenges involved in implementing
the CSC program.
D Coordinated Specialty Care (CSC)
Participant Interview: This semistructured interview will be conducted
twice with participants involved in
programs at the 32 CSC sites in the
evaluation. The purpose of the
interview is to gather participant input
on how CSC programs are operating and
their thoughts and opinions about
successes and challenges while
participating in the CSC program.
D State Mental Health Authority
Interview: This is a one-time semistructured interview with state mental
health leadership in the states where the
32 sites in the evaluation are located.
The interview focuses on their thoughts
and opinions about context in which
CSC programs are implemented within
their state and the state’s role in the
implementation of the CSC programs.
D Fidelity Interview: This interview
will be conducted twice during the
evaluation with up to four CSC staff at
each site. The phone interview is
designed to be used in conjunction with
the First Episode Psychosis Fidelity
Scale (FEPS–FS) to examine whether
elements of CSC are implemented at the
sites.
D Possible Administrative Data
Elements: Each site will provide the
evaluation team with administrative
data elements on participant
demographics and outcomes. To
minimize burden and maximize the
number of sites reporting outcome
measures, we will seek sites that are
already collecting the individual level
outcome measures identified for this
study including quality of life,
symptomology, employment status,
educational status, and living situation.
These administrative data elements are
included in the core collection of
measures recommended by the Mental
Health Research Panel through the
PhenX Toolkit (www.phenxtoolkit.org)
for use by all mental health researchers.
Thus, we expect that majority of the
sites will already be collecting these
measures as a part of their routine
practice.

Project: 2018 National Survey on Drug
Use and Health (OMB No. 0930–0110)—
Revision
The National Survey on Drug Use and
Health (NSDUH) is a survey of the U.S.
civilian, non-institutionalized
population aged 12 years old or older.
The data are used to determine the
prevalence of use of tobacco products,
alcohol, illicit substances, and illicit use
of prescription drugs. The results are
used by SAMHSA, the Office of
National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP),
federal government agencies, and other
organizations and researchers to
establish policy, direct program
activities, and better allocate resources.
While NSDUH must be updated
periodically to reflect changing
substance use and mental health issues
and to continue producing current data,
for the 2018 NSDUH only the following
minor changes are planned: (1) At the
request of ONDCP, re-inserted the
marijuana marketplace module,
previously included in the 2014 NSDUH
(as well as prior years), into the
respondent-administered portion of the
2018 questionnaire; (2) the addition of
four new questions, asked only of
respondents age 18 and older, about the
perception of problems with and
recovery from drug/alcohol and mental
health problems; and (3) included other
minor wording changes to improve the
flow of the interview, increase
respondent comprehension or to be
consistent with text in other questions.
The marijuana marketplace module
consists of a series of questions that seek
to gather data such as the location,
quantity, cost and type of marijuana
being purchased across the nation. This
module is unchanged from the version
last included in the 2014 NSDUH. As
with all NSDUH/NHSDA surveys
conducted since 1999, the sample size
of the survey for 2018 will be sufficient
to permit prevalence estimates for each
of the fifty states and the District of
Columbia. Prior to 2002, the NSDUH
was referred to as the National
Household Survey on Drug Abuse
(NHSDA).
The total annual burden estimate is
shown below.
