Project: Targeted Capacity Expansion Grants for Jail Diversion Program 
Evaluation--Additional Trauma Measures--(OMB No. 0930-0277)--Revision

    The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration's 
(SAMHSA), Center for Mental Health Services (CMHS) has implemented the 
Targeted Capacity Expansion Grants for Jail Diversion Programs. The 
Program currently collects client outcome measures from program 
participants who agree to participate in the evaluation. Data 
collection consists of interviews conducted at baseline, 6- and 12-
month intervals.
    The current proposal requests:
    1. Adding a new instrument, the PTSD Checklist (PCL), as a measure 
of trauma-specific symptoms to the baseline, 6- and 12-month 
interviews.
    2. Extending the use of DC Trauma Screen, currently administered 
only at baseline, to be included in the 6- and 12-month interviews. The 
DC Trauma Screen examines the prevalence of experience of trauma within 
general types.
    The PCL and the DC Trauma Screen each take 5 minutes to complete. 
Including these measures would add 5 minutes to the length of the 
baseline interview and ten minutes to the length of the 6- and 12-month 
interviews.
    New grantees were awarded on April 30, 2006 under the TCE Grants 
for Jail Diversion program and will commence data collection efforts in 
FY 2007. The following tables summarize the burden for the data 
collection.
