Agency Information Collection Activities: Submission for 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 on (240) 276-0361.

Project: Application for the Reviewer Contact Information Form (OMB No. 
0930-0255)

    Section 501(h) of the Public Health Service (PHS) Act (42 U.S.C. 
290aa) directs the Assistant Secretary of SAMHSA to establish such peer 
review groups as are needed to carry out the requirements of Title V of 
the PHS Act. SAMHSA administers a large discretionary grants program 
under authorization of Title V, and, for many years, SAMHSA has funded 
grants to provide prevention and treatment services related to 
substance abuse and mental health. In support of its grant peer review 
efforts, SAMHSA desires to continue to expand the number and types of 
reviewers it uses on these grant review committees. To accomplish that 
end, SAMHSA has determined that it is important to proactively seek the 
inclusion of new and qualified representatives on its peer review 
groups. Accordingly, SAMHSA has developed an application form for use 
by individuals who wish to apply to serve as peer reviewers.
    The application form has been developed to capture the essential 
information about the individual applicants. The most consistent method 
to accomplish this is through completion of a standard form by all 
interested persons which captures information about knowledge, 
education, and experience in a consistent manner from all interested 
applicants. SAMHSA will use the information provided on the form to 
identify appropriate peer grant reviewers. Depending on their 
experience and qualifications, applicants may be invited to serve as 
grant reviewers.
    The following changes are proposed in the form:

1. Added Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHC), Technical Training 
Centers (TTC) and Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinics (CCBHC) 
in the Affiliations Section--Office of Behavioral Health Equity (OBHE) 
Recommendation
2. Changed to ``Prefer not to Answer'' in the Gender section--OBHE 
Recommendation
3. Added High School and Certificate to Education section--OBHE 
Recommendation
4. Changed Alaskan Native/American Indian to American Indian/Alaskan 
Native and added ``Mixed Race'' in the Race section--OBHE and Tribal 
Office Recommendation
5. Added ``No License'' in the License section--OBHE Recommendation
6. Added ``Tribal Health System'' and ``Screening/Prevention/Emergency 
Preparedness'' in the Secondary Expertise section-- OBHE and Tribal 
Office Recommendation
7. Added ``Peer Experience/Lived Experience'' in the Secondary 
Expertise section--OBHE Recommendation
8. Added ``Junior Reviewer'' and ``Community Reviewer'' to Grant Review 
Experience section--OBHE Recommendation
9. Added the SAMHSA Values Statement at the end of the form--OBHE 
Recommendation
