Memorandum for the Cross-site Evaluation of the
National Child Traumatic Stress Initiative
I. Introduction
The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA)’s Center for Mental Health Services (CMHS) is requesting approval for additional instrumentation associated with the cross-site evaluation of the National Child Traumatic Stress Initiative (NCTSI). The cross-site evaluation has been funded through CMHS since 2004 and has received OMB clearance for the majority of proposed data collection efforts (OMB No.: 0930-0276, Approval Date: 04/26/06, Expiration Date: 04/30/2009). As indicated on page 6 of the original Supporting Statement for the cross-site evaluation submitted to OMB, additional instrumentation for the Knowledge and Use of Trauma-informed Services Study component would be submitted by memorandum during the initial 3-year clearance period. The reference from page 6 is included as Attachment 1 and refers to instrumentation that had not yet been developed at the time of the original submission. Consistent with the original submission, this memorandum includes the additional instrumentation and the proposed methodology for its administration. The additional instrumentation (named below) constitutes the remainder of the instrumentation for the Knowledge and Use of Trauma-informed Services Study component.
Trauma-informed Services Provider Survey (Attachment 2)
Following is a brief description of the Knowledge and Use of Trauma-informed Services study design and methodology abstracted from the original submission, as well as a description of the new instrumentation.
Purpose and Design
Increased awareness and use of trauma-specific services among child service providers is critical to the overarching mission of the NCTSI to increase the quality and access of care for children and adolescents who have experienced trauma. To that end, National Child Traumatic Stress Network (NCTSN) centers are actively engaged in activities such as training, dissemination, education, and consultation regarding trauma-specific evidence-based practices, interventions, and methods for human service providers. Human service providers affiliated with the Network include a wide range of community-based professionals who interact frequently with children and engage in multiple activities, from prevention to screening, to early identification and the provision of clinical interventions (i.e., such professionals may include mental health providers, teachers, child welfare staff, juvenile justice staff, health care providers, and first responders). Given the importance of dissemination of trauma-informed, evidence-based practices throughout the Network in achieving the Network’s mission, this study component evaluates the extent to which funded NCTSN centers have enhanced the knowledge base and use of trauma-informed services (TIS) among human service providers affiliated with the NCTSN through training and outreach activities.
The study design includes a multistage process of inquiry using both qualitative and quantitative data collection activities to develop a Network consensus definition and conceptual model for TIS that leads to the development and administration of a TIS provider survey. As planned and approved as part of the original submission on pages 12 and 13 (excerpt included as Attachment 3), the two stages of qualitative data collection, including key informant interviews and discussion groups with Network staff with TIS expertise, have been conducted and the data have been analyzed. These data collection efforts have informed the development of the TIS provider survey. The TIS provider survey is the new instrumentation being submitted for review and approval.
Description of Instrumentation
The TIS provider survey was anticipated to be a Web-enabled survey; however, the survey format has been re-conceptualized in an effort to ensure maximum participation among the target respondent group (i.e., human service providers) and to gather comprehensive information to better inform Government Performance and Results Act (GPRA) reporting indicators associated with training activity. Therefore, the TIS provider survey (Attachment 2) is paper-based and will be distributed to human service providers participating in NCTSN-hosted training events following each event.
The 23-item survey consists of an introduction and consent form; a section (questions 1-19) that constitutes that primary focus of the survey; a section (questions 20-23) gathering general demographic information about the respondent (e.g., gender, age, and race); and, an invitation to participate in a lottery drawing for a $50 gift certificate. The survey gathers information about the respondents’ professional role, method of learning about the training event, and topic(s) of the training event. The survey also assesses the respondents’ general knowledge regarding child trauma and its impact, understanding of approaches to screening for traumatic exposure and other aspects of trauma-informed service provision, and requests that the respondent rate the degree to which the training may have enhanced the respondent’s knowledge and/or will lead to changes in the respondent’s practices related to trauma-informed service in the future. Additional topics include the respondent’s perspective regarding the utility of the training and associated materials and general satisfaction with the training, as well as the respondent’s exposure to NCSTN trainings. Questions are generally multiple-choice and in some cases use a 5-point Likert rating scale.
Respondent Universe and Sampling Methods
The target population for the TIS provider survey includes human service providers of various types (e.g., mental health, police, teacher, child welfare workers, etc.) affiliated, through training and outreach activities, with each of the NCTSN centers. The respondent universe is the total number of human service providers trained by Network centers each year through relevant training events. All NCTSN centers that provide trainings as part of their NCTSI grant-funded activities will be targeted for participation in distributing the TIS provider survey at relevant training events. While the majority of NCTSN centers are involved in training activities as a part of their NCTSI grant, it is anticipated that several centers will be focused exclusively on other activities (e.g., service provision and data collection for clinical and evaluative purposes), would not host training events, and therefore would not participate in the distribution of the TIS provider survey.
Based on a variety of data collection efforts undertaken separately by the National Center for Child Traumatic Stress (NCCTS) and Macro International Inc., the estimated average number of individuals trained annually by each NCTSN center that match the target population of the TIS provider survey (i.e., human service providers) is 500. In addition, according to data collected through cross-site evaluation monthly reports submitted to Macro International Inc. from Network centers, as well as other cross-site evaluation information gathering activities, 39 centers routinely host training events as a part of NCTSI grant-funded center activities. Therefore, over the next year of the cross-site evaluation, and annually thereafter, the respondent universe for the TIS provider survey is estimated to be 19,500 (the product of 39 [i.e., the total number of centers providing training] and 500 [i.e., the average number of individuals trained per center annually that match the target respondent group of the TIS provider survey]).
Information Collection Procedures
Following each center-sponsored training or outreach activity focused on the dissemination of trauma-specific interventions, methods and/or information for human service providers, NCTSN center trainers will be asked to collect three types of information:
1) Training summary form: Center trainers will be asked to complete a brief training summary form (Attachment 4) designed to collect information including the training date, the number of training participants, the topic of the training, and the agency/organization affiliation of center trainees, which will reflect the type(s) of human service providers attending each training event. As a consistent method for recording this information on a training-by-training basis does not currently exist, the training summary report will fulfill a variety of needs among stakeholders (i.e., Network centers, cross-site evaluator, and SAMHSA) for data informing the reach of Network sponsored training and outreach events.
2) TIS provider surveys: Center trainers will be asked to distribute the TIS provider survey to all training participants at each training event. Trainers will distribute the survey to each participant and participants will be instructed to complete the anonymous survey if they wish and to return it to the trainer.
3) Contact information forms: As described, on the last page of the TIS provider survey, the respondent is invited to participate in a lottery drawing for a $50 gift certificate and to complete the contact information form if interested. The contact information form serves two purposes: (a) allowing respondents to register for participation in the lottery drawing and (b) providing an opportunity for respondents to authorize (or refuse to authorize) the use of their contact information in future national evaluation surveys regarding the implementation of trauma-informed services and practices. Center trainers will be asked to collect the contact information forms separately from the TIS provider surveys to protect anonymity.
In summary, for each relevant NCTSN center hosted training event, center trainers will be asked to collect the three types of information described above, ensuring that the training summary form and the anonymous TIS provider surveys are collected together. The contact information forms will be collected separately and both sets of information will be placed in a pre-addressed, pre-metered envelope, and mailed to Macro International Inc. The cross-site evaluator will develop and provide the necessary materials (i.e., the training summary reports and the TIS provider survey with contact information forms attached, pre-metered mailers, and instructions regarding procedures) to each participating NCTSN center.
Payment to Respondents
On the last page of the TIS provider survey, training participants are thanked for taking the time to complete the survey and are reminded that their participation is critical to expanding the knowledge-base related to trauma informed service provision. In addition, as described previously, respondents are informed that, having completed the survey, they are now eligible to participate in a lottery drawing for a $50 gift certificate. If they would like to be entered into the lottery, they must complete the contact information form. One $50 gift certificate will be provided by the cross-site evaluator to a participating respondent of each training event. The opportunity to participate in the lottery serves as remuneration for completing the TIS provider survey. Each individual that submits a contact information form will be entered into the lottery for each training event, one winner will be randomly drawn, and the $50 gift certificate will be mailed to the respondent within two weeks of the date on which Macro International Inc. receives the training information package.
Assurance of Confidentiality
A consent form precedes the first page of the TIS provider survey and explains the survey, including voluntary nature of survey completion, confidentiality and anonymity of responses, and the risks, benefits, and rights as respondents, and advises the recipient that completion and submission of the survey indicates consent to participate. In addition, as described previously, TIS respondents are invited to provide their contact information if interested in participating in the TIS provider survey respondent lottery and/or in authorizing the use of their contact information for future national evaluation surveys regarding the implementation of trauma-informed services. Contact information provided by respondents will be collected separately from completed TIS provider surveys by the NCTSN center trainer to ensure anonymity. A tracking code will be included on each TIS provider survey that matches the code printed on the attached contact information form (i.e., for each individual TIS provider survey and attached contact information form, tracking codes printed on each will match). The code will be used for two purposes: 1) to ensure that the lottery winner submitted a TIS provider survey; and 2) to link TIS provider survey data with data collected through cross-site evaluation surveys designed to assess the implementation of trauma-informed services. Linking respondent participation across surveys provides an opportunity to examine the relationship between respondents’ exposure to NCTSN training and outreach events and the implementation of and/or change in trauma-informed services provision over time.
Table 1 below shows the burden associated with the TIS provider survey, which, as described, is based on data regarding the total number of centers providing training and the average number of individuals trained per center annually that match the target respondent group for the TIS provider survey.

Knowledge and Use of Trauma-informed Services. This study component will assess the extent to which funded Network centers enhance the trauma-informed service knowledge base and use among service providers affiliated with the Network through training and outreach activities. Centers funded in 2001 or 2002 that received renewed funding in 2005, and centers funded in 2003 will contribute to the development of the Trauma-informed Service (TIS) Survey through participation in key informant interviews and discussion groups, as well as participate in the TIS survey; centers funded for the first time in 2005 will only participate in the TIS survey. The key informant interview and discussion group data will be analyzed using content analysis and aggregated within and across center category (TSA and CTS). The data from the TIS survey will be analyzed with descriptive and inferential statistics compared on provider demographics, funding cohort, and center target population. In addition, change in knowledge base and use of trauma informed services will be analyzed longitudinally, as appropriate.

Excerpts from Pages 12 and 13 of the Original OMB Supporting Statement
Original OMB Supporting Statement (section A.6. Consequences if Information is Collected Less Frequently), Excerpt from Pages 12-13:
Knowledge and Use of Trauma-informed Services. Key informant interview and discussion group data will be collected once from centers funded in 2001/2002 that were refunded in 2005 and centers funded in 2003. This information will be analyzed and used to develop the Trauma-informed Services (TIS) Survey. TIS Survey data will be collected annually from providers affiliated through training activities with the NCTSN. Key informant and discussion group data is fundamental to the development of a valid survey on the knowledge and use of trauma-informed services. Development of the TIS in the absence of the key informant and discussion group data could result in a survey tool lacking in utility and relevance to the field.
The TIS Survey will be administered annually to service providers affiliated with centers funded in 2003 and 2005. Increased awareness and use of trauma-specific services among child service providers is critical to the overarching mission of the NCTSI to increase the quality and access of care for children who experience trauma. Less frequent data collection will result in the inability to understand the extent to which the Network and its centers are enhancing the understanding and increasing the use of appropriate services for children who experience trauma. Multiple data collection points are needed in order to assess the change in the knowledge base and use of trauma informed services as the Network and its affiliated centers mature.
