DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES
Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration
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) 276-1243.
Project: Targeted Capacity Expansion Program for Substance Abuse
Treatment and HIV/AIDS Services (TCE-HIV)--NEW
This data collection is to study the risk and protective factors
related to substance use and HIV. The primary purpose of the Project is
to conceptualize, plan, and implement a multi-site valuation to
investigate the process, outcome, and effect of substance abuse
treatment and HIV/AIDS services provided by 48 SAMHSA grantees. The
grantees' focus is on enhancing and expanding substance abuse treatment
and/or outreach and pretreatment services in conjunction with HIV/AIDS
services in African American, Hispanic/Latino, and other racial and
ethnic minority communities. A multi-stage approach has been used to
develop the appropriate theoretical framework, conceptual model,
evaluation design and protocols, and data collection instrumentation.
Process and outcome measures have been developed to fully capture
community and contextual conditions, the scope of the TCE-HIV Grantee
program implementation and activities, and client outcomes. A mixed-
method approach (survey, semi-structured interviews, focus groups) will
be used, for example, to examine collaborative community linkages
established between grantees and other service providers (e.g., primary
health care, medical services for persons living with HIV/AIDS,
substance abuse recovery support services), determine which program
models and what type and amount of client exposure to services
contribute to significant changes in substance abuse and HIV/AIDS risk
behaviors of the targeted populations, and determine the impact of the
TCE-HIV services on providers, clients, and communities.
The process data collection for the project will be conducted bi-
annually (i.e., every other year during the 4-year period) and the
client outcome data collection is ongoing throughout the project and
will be collected at baseline/intake, discharge and 6 months post
baseline/intake for all treatment clients. The respondents are clinic-
based social workers and counselors (e.g., social workers, licensed
alcohol and drug counselors, licensed clinical professional counselors,
licensed clinical social workers), clinic-based administrators and
clinic-based clients.
