Proposed Project: Participant Feedback on Training Under the 
Cooperative Agreement for Mental Health Care Provider Education in HIV/
AIDS Program (OMB No. 0930-0195)--Extension

    The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration's 
(SAMHSA) Center for Mental Health Services (CMHS) intends to continue 
to conduct a multi-site assessment for the Mental Health Care Provider 
Education in HIV/AIDS Program. There are no changes to the forms or the 
burden hours.
    The education programs are funded under a cooperative agreement 
that are designed to disseminate knowledge of the psychological and 
neuropsychiatric sequelae of HIV/AIDS to both traditional (e.g., 
psychiatrists, psychologists, nurses, primary care physicians, medical 
students, and social workers) and non-traditional (e.g., clergy, and 
alternative health care workers) first-line providers of mental health 
services, in particular to providers in minority communities.
    The multi-site assessment is designed to assess the effectiveness 
of particular training curricula, document the integrity of training 
delivery formats, and assess the effectiveness of the various training 
delivery formats. Analyses will assist CMHS in documenting the numbers 
and types of traditional and non-traditional mental health providers 
accessing training; the content, nature and types of training 
participants receive; and the extent to which trainees experience 
knowledge, skill and attitude gains/changes as a result of training 
attendance. The multi-site data collection design uses a two-tiered 
data collection and analytic strategy to collect information on (1) the 
organization and delivery of training, and (2) the impact of training 
on participants' knowledge, skills and abilities.
    The annual burden estimates for this activity are shown in the 
table below.
