Information and Directions

Purpose

The Annual Reporting Tool (ART) collects data annually from primary SPF Rx grantees and their subrecipient communities about SPF Rx implementation, including:

  • Subrecipient communities’ progress through the Strategic Prevention Framework (SPF); and

  • The specific prevention interventions being implemented by subrecipient communities and primary grantees.

For SPF Rx, interventions may be implemented by primary grantees as well as their community subrecipients. Subrecipient communities will complete the whole survey, while primary grantees will mainly report on prevention interventions that they implement. Data collected from the survey will be used to monitor subrecipient and state, tribal entity, or jurisdiction performance and evaluate the effectiveness of the Strategic Prevention Framework for Prescription Drugs (SPF Rx) program across states, tribal entities, and jurisdictions. The overall goal of the cross-site evaluation is to document and assess the effectiveness of the SPF Rx approach to SAMHSA’s mission of reducing prescription drug misuse.

Requirements

Completion of this survey is a requirement of accepting funding from CSAP through your state, tribal entity, or jurisdiction under the SPF Rx grant initiative.

Organization of the Survey

Make sure to read all of the directions and examples. Primary grantees and subrecipient communities will complete this form once for each Federal fiscal year (annually). To minimize respondent burden and decrease completion time, this web-based survey allows information entered in previous reporting periods to be prefilled where possible and uses skip patterns to take you automatically to the appropriate question on the basis of your responses.

You will need to complete separate forms related to implementation information for each set of prevention intervention activities implemented. For example, if your community/jurisdiction implements both a participant-based education prevention intervention and an environmental prevention intervention, you will complete implementation information for both of those interventions. Similarly, if your community implements two different participant-based prevention education intervention strategies, you will complete implementation information for both of those interventions.

Information provided in this instrument focuses on communities, so no individuals will be identified in the reporting of results.

Throughout this instrument, the term “you” refers to the primary SPF Rx grantee (state/tribal entity/jurisdiction) or the subrecipient community that has received SPF Rx funding from the state/tribal entity/jurisdiction. The SPF Rx subrecipient community could be an organization, coalition, or other entity.

Inclusion of Key Informants

You are strongly encouraged to obtain input from others involved with the SPF Rx-funded project at the grantee and/or subrecipient level. As part of this process, we encourage you to print out a hard copy of the instrument and review it with key individuals, as appropriate and relevant for your SPF Rx grant.

People you may want to include in responding to this survey (if these positions are applicable to your grant)

  • Project Director

  • Project Coordinator

  • Person with responsibility or knowledge of financial issues

  • State or Tribal Epidemiology and Outcomes Workgroup (SEOW) Liaison

  • Data Coordinator

  • Local Evaluator

  • Intervention delivery staff

  • Coalition representatives

  • Key stakeholders or partners

Helpful Materials

Before completing the survey, you may find it helpful to gather the following materials to help answer questions:

  • budgets;

  • results of needs and resources assessments;

  • strategic plans;

  • meeting minutes;

  • memoranda of understanding;

  • prevention intervention implementation materials (curricula, programs, etc.);

  • evaluation findings and reports; and

  • organizational policies.

Entering and Saving Data

As you enter your data, you will be able to save your work and come back to it at another time. We recommend that you write your responses to the open-ended questions requiring narrative information in advance using a word processor and copy and paste them into the web-based survey.

Survey Assistance

If you need assistance in using the web-based data entry system, contact the Help Desk by leaving a message at 866-245-8079 or by email at pepc@rti.org. You can request assistance at any time and someone will respond to you within 24 hours or the next business day.

Definition of Terms

The following are definitions for several terms used throughout this instrument. Links to the definitions list can also be found on each page of the web-based survey.

  • Capacity refers to the quality and/or level of skills (e.g., workforce) and resources needed to achieve a desired outcome. For SPF Rx, capacity refers to the demonstrated ability of subrecipients to implement each SPF step effectively (e.g., implementation of evidence-based interventions) and the resources (human, organizational, and fiscal) to support the implementation of the SPF model.

  • Capacity building refers to activities conducted to improve the ability of an organization or community to deliver prescription drug misuse prevention services, such as improving organizational resources; improving awareness about prescription drug misuse problems; building new relationships or strengthening existing relationships among coalitions, groups, and organizations involved in prescription drug misuse prevention; and working to ensure that prevention intervention activities and outcomes continue after funding ends.

  • Community refers to the politically or geographically defined area or culturally or epidemiologically defined population of focus that the subrecipient chooses for each prevention intervention.

  • Community needs and resources assessments examine needs and resources external to the organization and include community readiness (definition below), rates of prescription drug and opioid misuse, prevention resources (e.g., call centers, trained implementers), partnerships, community prevention experience, and other monetary and nonmonetary resources.

  • Community readiness is the community's level of awareness of, interest in, and ability and willingness to support prescription drug misuse prevention initiatives. More broadly, it connotes readiness for changes in community knowledge, attitudes, motives, policies, and actions.

  • Consequences are defined as the social, economic, and health problems associated with misuse of prescription drugs—for example, overdoses and deaths related to prescription drugs.

  • Consumption patterns are the ways in which people misuse prescription drugs.

  • Directly served refers to individual-based prevention strategies or services directly delivered to individuals, either on a one-on-one basis or in a group format. Typically, the service provider and the participant are at the same location during the service encounter, but these activities may also take place virtually. Examples include training sessions and educational classes.

  • Environmental strategies are efforts to establish or change community standards, codes, and attitudes and thus reduce the incidence and prevalence of prescription drug misuse. Approaches can center on legal and regulatory issues or can relate to service and action-oriented initiatives. Examples include technical assistance (TA) to communities to increase health care provider’s use of prescription drug monitoring program data when prescribing opioid pain medication.

  • Federal fiscal year goes from October 1 through September 30 of the following year.

  • Indirectly reached describes population-based prevention strategies aimed at impacting an entire population. Since there is no direct interaction between the populations impacted by the services, counts of people reached are typically estimates obtained from sources such as the Census or media outlets. Common indirect strategies include information dissemination and environmental strategies.

  • Intervening variables are risk or protective factors that have been identified through research as being strongly related to and influencing the occurrence and magnitude of prescription drug misuse and related risk behaviors and their consequences. These variables are the focus of prevention interventions, changes in which are then expected to affect consumption and consequences.

  • In-kind resources include labor that supports the SPF Rx grant at subsidized or no cost to the grant or other resources donated to the SPF Rx grant, such as equipment, supplies, or office space.

  • Interventions are funded activities carried out under the auspices of the SPF Rx grant. They target a variety of subpopulations with the objective of improving outcomes related to prescription drug and opioid misuse.

  • Key stakeholders are all the members of the community who have a vested interest (a stake) in the activities or outcomes of the SPF Rx prevention intervention.

  • Leveraging resources is the process of combining SPF Rx-funded resources with other resources to augment prevention intervention delivery (i.e., to do more together than with SPF Rx resources alone). For example, subrecipients combine SPF Rx funding with funding from another source [e.g., Comprehensive Addiction and Recovery Act (CARA) or CDC Overdose to Action grants) to augment the implementation of their SPF Rx intervention. In many instances, leveraging functions through collaborative relationships.

  • Participants are the recipients of the SPF Rx prevention interventions.

  • Primary grantee or grantee refers to the administrative entity (such as the state, tribal entity, or jurisdiction) receiving SPF Rx funds for delivery of prescription drug misuse prevention interventions.

  • Social marketing uses the principles of commercial marketing to develop, implement, and evaluate interventions designed to influence the behavior of a target audience.

  • Subrecipients are the entities (usually community-based organizations, schools, or coalitions) that receive funds from the grantee and carry out SPF Rx activities or prevention interventions.

  • Sustainability is the process through which a prevention system becomes a norm and is integrated into ongoing operations. Sustainability is vital to ensuring that prevention values and processes are firmly established, that partnerships are strengthened, and that financial and other resources are secured over the long term.

Targeted Populations and Outcomes (Both grantees and subrecipients)

This set of questions asks about the specific populations and outcomes your community, state, tribal entity, or jurisdiction has identified for your SPF Rx efforts. (Note: Grantees should report their overall targets for their state, jurisdiction, or tribal area) Complete at baseline and update annually if you have any changes.

8. Indicate the consumption pattern(s) you are targeting for your SPF Rx activities. (Select all that apply.)E (autofill once completed initially)

  • Have not identified a consumption pattern to target

  • Misuse of any prescription drugs

  • Misuse of prescription pain relievers

  • Misuse of prescription stimulants

10. Indicate the population(s) you will be focusing on for your SPF Rx prevention activities. In the first column, we would like to know if you have very specific groups of people you are focusing on for your prevention interventions. For example, if you are delivering a prevention intervention to all middle schools in an area, then you would select only “middle school students”; you would not have to select all the possible race/ethnicity categories that might be enrolled in the schools. If, however, you are delivering a prevention intervention specifically designed to target high school-aged Latinos, then you would select Hispanic and high school students. (Note: If you are targeting the whole community or jurisdiction, then choose that answer option [10.1], and do not check all the subpopulations.) (These categories are not mutually exclusive. Use your judgment to select all responses that describe your population of focus.)E (autofill once completed initially)

In the second column, check any specific subpopulation your SPF Rx prevention activities are focused on to reduce prescription drug misuse-related behavioral health disparities. According to Healthy People 2030, “Health disparities adversely affect groups of people who have systematically experienced greater obstacles to health based on their racial or ethnic group; religion; socioeconomic status; gender; age; mental health; cognitive, sensory, or physical disability; sexual orientation or gender identity; geographic location; or other characteristics historically linked to discrimination or exclusion.” We are asking you to specify which of the population(s) you are targeting for your SPR-Rx activities because they experience disparities within your community or communities.

Section 2B. Capacity Building and Sustainability (Subrecipients only)

In this section, we ask you about your activities related to capacity and sustainability. Capacity refers to the quality and level of skills (e.g., workforce) and resources needed to achieve a desired outcome. For SPF Rx, capacity refers to the demonstrated ability of subrecipients to effectively implement each SPF step (i.e., assess needs, build capacity, plan, implement, and evaluate) and the resources (human, organizational, and fiscal) to support the implementation of the SPF model. Capacity building refers to activities conducted to improve the ability of an organization or community to deliver prescription drug misuse prevention services, such as improving organizational resources, seeking and receiving relevant training and technical assistance (T/TA), building new relationships or strengthening existing relationships among groups and organizations involved in prescription drug misuse prevention, and ensuring that prevention intervention activities and outcomes continue after SPF Rx funding ends.

Current Capacity (Subrecipients only)

Service type questions

Questions in this section are only asked for each intervention active, completed or discontinued in the past federal fiscal year (see Q28g)

Name of Prevention Intervention: _________________________________ (autofill from Question 26)

Service Type: ___________________________________________ (autofill from Question 26)

37. For Questions 37.1–37.5, indicate the locations and population of focus being served by this prevention intervention-service type. If you are implementing in separate settings (e.g., schools, workplaces), list each setting separately. (Note: If you are implementing a media campaign that reaches the whole county, you may enter “countywide” for location [Question 37.1].)

Use one line to describe each location served by the intervention-service type. Other than estimated population of focus (Question 37.5), you need to complete only those categories that are appropriate for this prevention intervention-service type and community served.E (autofill after first completed)


37.1. Location (e.g., school name, business, community center)

37.2. City/town

37.3. County/ parish

37.4. Population of focus description (Describe; 500-character limit)

37.5. What is the estimated number of individuals within your population of focus within the location listed?a

8.






9.






10.






a The number of individuals within your population of focus is likely smaller than the total population in the location. For example, if 10,000 individuals live in the area (total population), but only 3,000 of those are in the target 12- to 20-year-old age group for this prevention intervention, your estimated target population is 3,000. If your target population for this prevention intervention is more specific (e.g., Hispanic high school students or non-college youth aged 18 to 20), your population of focus number would be even smaller (e.g., 200). Report your population of focus size as accurately as possible.
