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 at (240) 276-0361.
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.
Project: Harm Reduction Grant Program Target Setting and Quarterly
Aggregate Reporting Instrument--(OMB No. 0930-XXXX)
SAMHSA is requesting approval for its Harm Reduction Grant Program
Annual Target Setting and Aggregate Quarterly Reporting Instrument. In
developing the instrument, we sought to elicit programmatic information
that demonstrates impact at the program level aligned with the Notice
of Funding Opportunity. In this way, data from the instrument can be
used to assess resource allocation and to delineate who we serve, how
we serve them, and program impacts. The tool reflects SAMHSA's desire
to elicit pertinent program level data that can be used to not only
guide future programs and practice, but to also respond to stakeholder,
congressional and agency enquiries.
The information collected from these forms is to be 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 treatment and mental health services
delivered in the United States. Approval of this information collection
will allow SAMHSA to continue to meet GPRA reporting requirements that
quantify the effects and accomplishments of its discretionary grant
programs, which are consistent with OMB guidance.
SAMHSA and its Centers will use the data for annual reporting
required by the Government Performance and Results Act Modernization
Act of 2010 (GPRMA). GPRMA requires that SAMHSA's fiscal year report
include actual results of performance monitoring for the three
preceding fiscal years. The additional information collected through
this process will allow SAMHSA to (1) report results of these
performance outcomes; (2) maintain consistency with SAMHSA-specific
performance domains, and (3) assess the accountability and performance
of its discretionary and formula grant programs.
