DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES

Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration


Agency Information Collection Activities: Submission for Office 
of Management and Budget (OMB) Review; Comment Request

    Periodically, the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services 
Administration (SAMHSA) will publish a summary of information 
collection requests under OMB review, in compliance with the Paperwork 
Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35). To request a copy of these 
documents, call the SAMHSA Reports Clearance Officer at (240) 276-0361.

Project: Regulations To Implement SAMHSA's Charitable Choice Statutory 
Provisions--42 CFR Parts 54 and 54a (OMB No. 0930-0242)--Extension

    Section 1955 of the Public Health Service Act (42 U.S.C. 300x-65), 
as amended by the Children's Health Act of 2000 (Pub. L. 106-310) and 
Sections 581-584 of the Public Health Service Act (42 U.S.C. 290kk et 
seq., as added by the Consolidated Appropriations Act (Pub. L. 106-
554)), set forth various provisions which aim to ensure that religious 
organizations are able to compete on an equal footing for federal funds 
to provide substance use services. These provisions allow religious 
organizations to offer substance use services to individuals without 
impairing the religious character of the organizations or the religious 
freedom of the individuals who receive the services. The provisions 
apply to the Substance Abuse Prevention and Treatment Block Grant 
(SABG), to the Projects for Assistance in Transition from Homelessness 
(PATH) formula grant program, and to certain Substance Abuse and Mental 
Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) discretionary grant programs 
(programs that pay for substance use treatment and prevention services, 
not for certain infrastructure and technical assistance activities). 
Every effort has been made to assure that the reporting, recordkeeping, 
and disclosure requirements of the proposed regulations allow maximum 
flexibility in implementation and impose minimum burden.
    No changes are being made to the regulations or the burden hours. 
This information collection has been approved without changes since 
2010.
    Information on how states comply with the requirements of 42 CFR 
part 54 was approved by OMB as part of the Substance Abuse Prevention 
and Treatment Block Grant FY 2019-2021 annual application and reporting 
requirements approved under OMB control number 0930-0168.
