Opioid State Targeted Response (STR) Evaluation
State/Territory STR Director Baseline Survey
Public Burden Statement: An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. The OMB control number for this project is 0930-0xxx. Public reporting burden for this collection of information is estimated to average four (4) hours per respondent, per year, including the time for reviewing instructions, searching existing data sources, gathering and maintaining the data needed, and completing and reviewing the collection of information. Send comments regarding this burden estimate or any other aspect of this collection of information, including suggestions for reducing this burden, to SAMHSA Reports Clearance Officer, 5600 Fishers Lane, Room 15E57-B, Rockville, Maryland, 20857. |
Information and Directions
The purpose of this evaluation is to collect important grantee-level information about the implementation of the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) Opioid State Targeted Response (STR) grant. Survey questions focus on opioid use disorder* services and activities in your state/territory before receiving Opioid STR funding, and planned services and activities to address opioid use disorder using Opioid STR funds. Survey results will be aggregated to protect anonymity. It will take approximately four (4) hours to complete this survey, including the time for reviewing instructions, searching existing data sources, gathering the data needed to answer questions, and answering the questions. The survey does not need to be completed in one sitting, and will automatically save your answers as you enter them.
*Except where noted, all questions in this survey refer to prevention strategies, treatment and/or recovery services for opioid use disorder and related conditions (e.g., non-medical use of prescription pain medication, heroin users, one-time users, overdose) in your state/territory one year before receiving Opioid STR funding. For the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5) definition of opioid use disorder, please refer to the attached glossary.
Helpful Materials
Before completing the survey, it may be helpful to gather the following materials to help answer questions:
Funding and budget information;
Intervention implementation materials (curricula, programs, etc.);
Evaluation findings and reports; and
Organizational policies.

Where possible, estimate how your capacity to treat will be improved by specifying the number of expected new cases (i.e., individuals who have not previously received service) you expect to serve with these services using Opioid STR funding.

For this question, we would like to know if your state/territory plans to target specific groups of people for these treatment and recovery interventions. For example, if you are delivering a treatment intervention designed to target all pregnant women in an area, then you would select only “Females”; you would not have to select all the possible race/ethnicity categories that might be pregnant. If, however, you are delivering a treatment specifically designed to target African American and Hispanic pregnant women, then you would select “Hispanic/Latinos” and “African Americans” as well. (These categories are not mutually exclusive. Use your judgment to select all responses that describe your target population.) |
