Project: State Opioid Response (SOR)/
Tribal Opioid Response (TOR) Program
Instrument (OMB No. 0930–0384)—
Revision
SAMHSA is requesting approval to
modify its existing CSAT SOR/TOR
Program Instrument by (1) collapsing
the original three questions into two
questions for clarity and (2) adding ten
questions, in order to collect
information on Congressionally
mandated and programmatic activities
and comply with reporting
requirements. The program-level
information is collected quarterly and
entered and stored in SAMHSA’s
Performance Accountability and
Reporting System, which is a real-time,
performance management system that
captures information on the substance
abuse prevention and treatment and
mental health services delivered in the
United States. Continued approval of

this information collection will allow
SAMHSA to continue to meet
Government Performance and Results
Modernization Act (GPRA) of 2010
reporting requirements that quantify the
effects and accomplishments of its
discretionary grant programs.
The SOR/TOR programs were first
authorized under Title II Division H of
the Consolidated Appropriations Act,
2018, Public Law 115–141. SOR/TOR
programs aim to address the opioid
crisis by increasing access to
medication-assisted treatment using the
three FDA-approved medications for the
treatment of Opioid Use Disorder
(OUD), reducing unmet treatment need,
and reducing opioid overdose-related
deaths through the provision of
prevention, treatment and recovery
activities for OUD (including illicit use
of prescription opioids, heroin, and
fentanyl and fentanyl analogs).
SAMHSA is proposing to revise the
SOR/TOR Program Instrument data
collection instrument (OMB No. 0930–
0384), in order to collect information on
Congressionally mandated and
programmatic activities and comply
with reporting requirements.
SAMHSA developed the SOR/TOR
Program Instrument to collect minimum
data on naloxone purchase and
distribution, but the SOR/TOR programs
are unique in that they have prevention
requirements. SOR/TOR grantees are
required to engage in the following
prevention activities: (1) Implement
prevention and education services,
including training of peers and first
responders on recognition of opioid
overdose and appropriate use of the
opioid overdose antidote naloxone, (2)
develop evidence-based community
prevention efforts, including strategic
messaging on the consequences of
opioid misuse, and (3) purchase and
distribute naloxone and train on its use.
The revised tool will allow SAMHSA to
collect data on the required education
and prevention activities, and better
assess grantee performance on these
activities.
Based on a recent United States
Government Accountability Office
(GAO) Report to Congress GAO 21–96,
‘‘Drug Misuse: Agencies Have Not Fully
Identified How Grants That Can Support
Drug Prevention Education Programs
Contribute to National Goals,’’ 1 GAO
1 United States Government Accountability
Office. (2020, November). Drug Misuse: Agencies
PO 00000
Frm 00063
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
41495
found that SAMHSA’s performance
measures for the SOR program partially
reflect its core program activities, and
that although SAMHSA reported three
performance measures for the SOR
program, all three measures focused on
treatment or recovery services only.
GAO recommended, and SAMHSA
committed to, implementing the
following: ‘‘The Secretary of Health and
Human Services should determine how
the State Opioid Response program
contributes to the prevention goals of
the National Drug Control Strategy and
develop performance measures that
relate to achieving those goals including
the prevention education goal.’’
Collection of the data in the revised tool
will enable SAMHSA to implement the
recommendations of GAO.
Finally, the revisions will assist
SAMHSA in providing comprehensive
data on the full range of required
activities to inform Congressionally
mandated reports for the SOR program.
In order to address these issues,
SAMHSA is proposing to (1) collapse
the three questions into two questions
for clarity and (2) add ten questions, in
order to collect information on
Congressionally mandated and
programmatic activities and comply
with reporting requirements. A
summary of the proposed changes
includes:
• The revised question will provide
CSAT with clarification on the purchase
and distribution of naloxone kits.
• The ten additional questions will
provide data on the following:
Æ Reported overdose reversals;
Æ Purchase and distribution of
fentanyl test strips;
Æ Training of first responders and key
community sectors on recognizing an
opioid overdose and the appropriate use
of naloxone overdose reversal kits;
Æ Educating individuals, including
school-aged children, on the
consequences of opioid and/or
stimulant misuse using strategic
messaging and prevention activities;
Æ Training individuals to provide
school-based prevention and education
activities to school-aged children; and
Æ Providing targeted prevention
outreach activities to underserved and/
or diverse populations.

Project: State Opioid Response (SOR)/Tribal Opioid Response (TOR)
Program Instrument (OMB No. 0930-0384)--Revision
SAMHSA is requesting approval to modify its existing CSAT SOR/TOR
Program Instrument by (1) collapsing the original three questions into
two questions for clarity and (2) adding ten questions, in order to
collect information on Congressionally mandated and programmatic
activities and comply with reporting requirements. The program-level
information is collected quarterly and entered and stored in SAMHSA's
Performance Accountability and Reporting System, which is a real-time,
performance management system that captures information on the
substance abuse prevention and treatment and mental health services
delivered in the United States. Continued approval of this information
collection will allow SAMHSA to continue to meet Government Performance
and Results Modernization Act (GPRA) of 2010 reporting requirements
that quantify the effects and accomplishments of its discretionary
grant programs.
The SOR/TOR programs were first authorized under Title II Division
H of the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2018, Public Law 115-141.
SOR/TOR programs aim to address the opioid crisis by increasing access
to medication-assisted treatment using the three FDA-approved
medications for the treatment of Opioid Use Disorder (OUD), reducing
unmet treatment need, and reducing opioid overdose-related deaths
through the provision of prevention, treatment and recovery activities
for OUD (including illicit use of prescription opioids, heroin, and
fentanyl and fentanyl analogs).
SAMHSA is proposing to revise the SOR/TOR Program Instrument data
collection instrument (OMB No. 0930-0384), in order to collect
information on Congressionally mandated and programmatic activities and
comply with reporting requirements.
SAMHSA developed the SOR/TOR Program Instrument to collect minimum
data on naloxone purchase and distribution, but the SOR/TOR programs
are unique in that they have prevention requirements. SOR/TOR grantees
are required to engage in the following prevention activities: (1)
Implement prevention and education services, including training of
peers and first responders on recognition of opioid overdose and
appropriate use of the opioid overdose antidote naloxone, (2) develop
evidence-based community prevention efforts, including strategic
messaging on the consequences of opioid misuse, and (3) purchase and
distribute naloxone and train on its use. The revised tool will allow
SAMHSA to collect data on the required education and prevention
activities, and better assess grantee performance on these activities.
Based on a recent United States Government Accountability Office
(GAO) Report to Congress GAO 21-96, ``Drug Misuse: Agencies Have Not
Fully Identified How Grants That Can Support Drug Prevention Education
Programs Contribute to National Goals,'' \1\ GAO found that SAMHSA's
performance measures for the SOR program partially reflect its core
program activities, and that although SAMHSA reported three performance
measures for the SOR program, all three measures focused on treatment
or recovery services only. GAO recommended, and SAMHSA committed to,
implementing the following: ``The Secretary of Health and Human
Services should determine how the State Opioid Response program
contributes to the prevention goals of the National Drug Control
Strategy and develop performance measures that relate to achieving
those goals including the prevention education goal.'' Collection of
the data in the revised tool will enable SAMHSA to implement the
recommendations of GAO.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Finally, the revisions will assist SAMHSA in providing
comprehensive data on the full range of required activities to inform
Congressionally mandated reports for the SOR program.
In order to address these issues, SAMHSA is proposing to (1)
collapse the three questions into two questions for clarity and (2) add
ten questions, in order to collect information on Congressionally
mandated and programmatic activities and comply with reporting
requirements. A summary of the proposed changes includes:
The revised question will provide CSAT with clarification

[cir] Reported overdose reversals;
[cir] Purchase and distribution of fentanyl test strips;
