Approved through
12/99 as amended by SAMHSA's memoranda to OMB of 5/12/98, 6/16/98
and 6/23/98. As SAMHSA has agreed, the planned meeting with the
States in July or August on performance outcome measures that would
be voluntarily reported by all States as core measures will include
participation by the National Governors' Association as well as
NASADAD. SAMHSA will invite NGA staff directly, and will indicate
that the purpose of the meeeting is to solicit the Governors'
concurrence with the measures agreed upon. If consensus on these
voluntarily reported core measures cannot be reached between
SAMHSA, NASADAD, NGA, OMB, and ONDCP consistent with the timetable
provided by SAMHSA in its 6/16 memo, SAMHSA will report to OMB and
ONDCP at the earliest possible date to revise its performance
outcome measures strategy under this Block Grant application.
SAMHSA will also keep OMB and ONDCP informed about its progress in
meeting this timetable generally, and SAMHSA will make its best
effort to adhere to the dates provided.
