Notice of Meeting

    Pursuant to Public Law 92-463, notice is hereby given of the 
combined meeting on February 1, 2017, of the Substance Abuse and Mental 
Health Services Administration's (SAMHSA) four National Advisory 
Councils: The SAMHSA National Advisory Council (NAC), the Center for 
Mental Health Services NAC, the Center for Substance Abuse Prevention 
NAC, the Center for Substance Abuse Treatment NAC; and the two SAMHSA 
Advisory Committees: Advisory Committee for Women's Services (ACWS) and 
the Tribal Technical Advisory Committee (TTAC).
    SAMHSA's National Advisory Councils were established to advise the 
Secretary, Department of Health and Human Services (HHS); the 
Administrator, SAMHSA; and SAMHSA's Center Directors concerning matters 
relating to the activities carried out by and through the Centers and 
the policies respecting such activities.
    Under Section 501 of the Public Health Service Act, the ACWS is 
statutorily mandated to advise the SAMHSA Administrator and the 
Associate Administrator for Women's Services on appropriate activities 
to be undertaken by SAMHSA and its Centers with respect to women's 
substance abuse and mental health services.
    Pursuant to Presidential Executive Order No. 13175, November 6, 
2000, and the Presidential Memorandum of September 23, 2004, SAMHSA 
established the TTAC for working with Federally-recognized Tribes to 
enhance the government-to-government relationship, and honor Federal 
trust responsibilities and obligations to Tribes and American Indian 
and Alaska Natives. The SAMHSA TTAC serves as an advisory body to 
SAMHSA.
    The theme for the February 1, 2017 combined meeting is Translating 
Science to Service (and Back Again). It will include remarks from the 
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Mental Health and Substance Abuse, and a

Directors. There will be a panel discussion by the directors of the

Drug Abuse (NIDA) and the Acting Deputy Director of the National 
Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA). U.S. Rep. Tim Murphy 
has been invited to offer the Special Remarks, which will be followed 
by breakout groups discussions with the following titles: Suicide 
Prevention; Underage Drinking; and MAT and Naloxone.
