Agency Information Collection Activities: Submission for OMB
Review; Comment Request
Periodically, the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services
Administration (SAMHSA) will publish a list 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

State Prevention Needs Assessments: Alcohol and Other Drugs, Cohort
V
(New)--SAMHSA's Center for Substance Abuse Prevention (CSAP) has
awarded contracts to three States (Cohort V) to collect data to assess
the nature and extent of substance abuse prevention services needs. The
data collection by these States will bring to 30 (Cohorts I-V) the
number of States that have implemented a family of prevention needs
assessment studies, and will constitute the third cohort to apply the
core set of measures, instruments, and methodologies developed and
standardized under prior State needs assessment State contracts.
Data will be collected in school surveys and community resource
assessments (CRA). The information collected in this project will be
combined with existing information from other sources; States may use
multiple approaches to assess statewide and substate distributions of
risk and protective factors for substance use, of prevention resources,
and of prevention services needs. These needs assessment studies will
permit cross-State comparison of risk and protection variables to
assist State services planning and allocation of State Block Grant
funds, and to assist Federal response to the Government Performance and
Results Act (GPRA). The estimated annualized burden for the three-year
project is shown below.
