Chapter 35). To request a copy of these documents, call the SAMHSA Reports Clearance Officer on (240) 276-1243. Project: State Targeted Response to the Opioid Crisis (Opioid STR) Evaluation--NEW The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) recently awarded 57 grants to states and territories to help address the national opioid crisis by increasing access to treatment, reducing unmet treatment needs, and reducing opioid overdose related deaths through the provision of prevention, treatment, and recovery activities for opioid use disorder (OUD). SAMHSA's Center for Behavioral Health Statistics and Quality (CBHSQ), will be conducting a cross-site evaluation of the Opioid STR grant program. The proposed data collection is necessary to evaluate how the Opioid STR state/territory grantees plan and implement prevention, treatment and recovery services. Additionally, a subset of communities/programs will be selected to participate in supplemental evaluation activities designed to provide detailed information related to the implementation of services at the program/community level, as well as the impacts of the program on client outcomes. SAMHSA has developed a set of interview protocols and survey measures that will collect information from all state/territory grantees (57), and subset (up to 20) of programs/communities that provide services and activities funded by the grant. In addition, SAMHSA's Performance Accountability and Reporting System (SPARS) will be used to collect individual-level data using CSAT's Government Performance and Results Act (GPRA) for Discretionary Grant Programs Client Outcome Measure (OMB No. 0930-0208) from individuals receiving services from participating communities/programs. Specific data collected as part of the Opioid STR evaluation include the following: State Survey: The State Survey will be administered to State Project Directors/Program Managers to collect information about the state/territory's current, planned, and implemented activities to address opioid misuse using Opioid STR funding. State Surveys will be administered three (3) times. State Interview: The State Interview Protocol will be used to collect information from the State Project Director/Program Manager during phone interviews at two (2) time points. Interviews will collect information about the state's substance abuse treatment systems prior to STR funding, the types of activities states plan to implement with STR funding, challenges and successes when implementing these activities, and plans for sustaining the activities. Community/Program Survey: The Community/Program Survey will be administered to Community/Program Directors or Program Managers to collect information about the community/program's readiness to implement activities that address opioid misuse, their actual implementation of activities to address opioid misuse, and initial outcomes of their implemented activities. Community/Program Survey will be administered three (3) times. Community/Program Director/Manager Interview Protocol: The Community/Program Director/Manager Interview Protocol will be used to collect information from Community/Program Directors or Program Managers during in-person site visits to each participating community/ program. Interviews will collect in-depth information about the community's/program's implementation of activities to address opioid misuse using Opioid STR funding, and factors facilitating and impeding the implementation of STR-funded activities. Community/Program Director/Manager Interviews will be conducted two (2) times. Community/Program Data Manager Interview Protocol: The Community/ Program Data Manager Interview Protocol will be used to collect information from Data Managers during in-person site visits to each participating community/program. Interviews will collect in-depth information about how the program used community/program-level data to [[Page 31339]] inform the development and implementation of STR activities and how data is being used to monitor the activities. Community/Program Data Manager Interviews will be conducted two (2) times. Community/Program Clinical Staff Interview Protocol: The Community/ Program Clinical Staff Interview Protocol will be used to collect information from up to four (4) clinical staff members at each participating community/program site. Interviews will collect information on the factors that have facilitated and impeded past activities to address opioid misuse, and clinicians' experiences implementing STR-funded activities. Community/Program Clinical Staff Interviews will be conducted two (2) times. CSAT GPRA Client Outcome Measure: The CSAT GPRA Client Outcome Measure will be used with each client served in the Communities/ Programs to collect data about client's progress as a result of receiving services. This data will be collected at three (3) time intervals: intake to services, 6 month follow-up, and at discharge.
