DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES
Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration
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: National Outcome Measures (NOMs) for Substance Abuse
Prevention--(OMB No. 0930-0230)--Revision
This is a revision to the previously OMB approved instrument for
the Center for Substance Abuse Prevention's (CSAP) National Outcome
Measures for Substance Abuse Prevention (NOMs). Data are collected from
SAMHSA/CSAP grants and contracts where community and participant
outcomes are assessed. The analysis of these data helps determine
whether progress is being made in achieving SAMHSA/CSAP's mission. The
primary purpose of this system is to promote the use among SAMHSA/CSAP
grantees and contractors of common National Outcome Measures
recommended by SAMHSA/CSAP with significant input from panels of
experts and state representatives.
Approval of this information collection will allow SAMHSA to
continue to meet Government Performance and Results Modernization Act
of 2010 (GPRAMA) reporting requirements that quantify the effects and
accomplishments of its discretionary grant programs which are
consistent with OMB guidance, and address goals and objectives outlined
in the Office of National Drug Control Policy's Performance Measures of
Effectiveness.
Note that the only changes is the deletion of one question per
instrument, the deletion of prior Fiscal Years, and the PPC program
which was not funded. The question being deleted is
Has the Service Member experienced any of the following (select all
that apply)
(a) Deployed in support of combat operations (e.g. Iraq or
Afghanistan)
(b) Was physically injured during combat operations
(c) Developed combat stress symptoms/difficulties adjusting
following deployment, including PTSD, depression, or suicidal thoughts
(d) Died or was killed

\*\ The Strategic Prevention Framework State Incentive Grant (SPF SIG) and Partnerships for Success (PFS) have a three level evaluation: The Grantee,
Community and Program Level. The Grantee level data will be pre-populated by SAMHSA. The use of the Community Level instrument is optional as they
relate to targeted interventions implemented during the reporting period. At the program level, items will be selected in line with direct services
implemented.
