    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, email the 
SAMHSA Reports Clearance Officer at <a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#e99a8884819a88999b88a99a8884819a88c781819ac78e869f"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="0a796b6762796b7a786b4a796b6762796b24626279246d657c">[email&#160;protected]</span></a>.
    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

Proposed Project: SAMHSA Unified Performance Reporting Tool (SUPRT)--
Project (P)--(OMB No. 0930-NEW)

    SAMHSA is the agency within the U.S. Department of Health and Human 
Services that leads public health efforts to advance the behavioral 
health of the nation. SAMHSA is seeking approval for the new SAMHSA 
Unified Performance Reporting Tool (SUPRT)--Project (P). This tool will 
replace the Center for Mental Health Services' (CMHS) Infrastructure 
Development, Prevention, and Mental Health Promotion (IPP) Indicators 
(included in #0930-0285) and will serve as a single tool to collect 
grant-level aggregate data on target goals, actual performance, and 
client demographic characteristics from CMHS, Center for Substance 
Abuse Treatment (CSAT), and Behavioral Health Coordinating Office (988) 
grantees. This notice informs the public of SAMHSA's intent to develop 
and implement the new streamlined performance tool that will allow 
SAMHSA to continue to meet reporting requirements mandated by the 
Government Performance Results Act Modernization Act (GPRMA) of 2010, 
reduce grantee reporting burden, and is projected to enhance the 
accuracy of the collected performance data from CMHS, CSAT, and 988 
grantees.
    SAMHSA will use the data collected through the SUPRT-P for annual 
reporting required by GPRMA, grantee monitoring, and continuous 
improvement of its discretionary grant programs. The SUPRT-P will also 
align with and strengthen SAMHSA's complementary evaluation activities 
of its discretionary grant programs

providing client services. The information collected through this 
process will allow SAMHSA to (1) monitor and report on implementation 
and overall performance of the associated grant programs; (2) advance 
SAMHSA's proposed performance goals; and (3) assess the accountability 
and performance of its discretionary grant programs, focused on efforts 
that promote mental health, prevent substance use, and provide 
treatments and supports to foster recovery.
    The new SUPRT-P reflects feedback SAMHSA obtained through multiple 
listening sessions conducted with key stakeholders, in addition to 
extensive deliberations conducted by different working groups within 
SAMHSA. Accordingly, the SUPRT-P retains some prior questions, adds new 
questions, and deletes other questions from the IPP indicators and 
client-level performance reporting tools currently in use. The SUPRT-P 
will reduce client reporting burden and is projected to enhance the 
accuracy of the collected performance data from CMHS, CSAT, and 988 
grantees by streamlining questions; incorporating questions for mental 
health, substance use treatment, and 988 indicators in one tool; and 
including indicators to assess the accountability and performance of 
its discretionary grants. The SUPRT-P will track data associated with 
the following:

<bullet> Awareness
<bullet> Demographics
<bullet> Outreach
<bullet> Partnership/Collaboration
<bullet> Prevention and Education
<bullet> Representation
<bullet> Overdose Prevention
<bullet> Screening, Referral, and Access
<bullet> Brief Intervention and Services
<bullet> Viral Hepatitis Services
<bullet> Training and Workforce Development
<bullet> Outcomes

    Grantees will self-administer the SUPRT-P to provide information 
quarterly and annually to address certain performance indicators but 
will not be required to collect data for the full tool. SAMHSA will 
provide guidance specifying for which indicators each grantee is 
expected to collect and report data. These indicators represent 
SAMHSA's focus on the factors that contribute to the success of mental 
health and treatment for substance use disorders.
