Abstract: ONDCP, the lead agency for setting U.S. drug control policy and strategy, provides funding through the DFC Program to build community capacity for preventing and reducing substance abuse among our nation's youth. ONDCP directs the DFC Program in partnership with the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration's (SAMHSA) Center for Substance Abuse Prevention (CSAP). DFC has two primary goals: to prevent and reduce youth substance use and to support community coalitions in building capacity to address youth substance use. The current package reflects a request for revisions to the 2012 previously approved collection pertaining to the Drug Free Communities Support Program (DFC). DFC was created by the Drug Free Communities Act of 1997 (Public Law 105-20), reauthorized through the Drug Free Communities Reauthorization Act of 2001 (Public Law 107-82), and reauthorized again through the Office of National Drug Control Policy Reauthorization Act of 2006 (Public Law 109-469). The latest reauthorization extended the program for an additional five years until 2019. The DFC authorizing statute (21 USC §1521–1032) provides that community-based coalitions addressing youth substance use can receive Federal grant funds and that the amount of each DFC grant award shall not exceed $125,000 annually. The current request pertains to revisions to the web-based performance system used to collect DFC data, minor revisions to the DFC progress report and the DFC Coalition Classification Tool (CCT), and elimination of the social network survey from the case studies. These changes have been determined necessary to reduce burden on grantees, facilitate the monitoring and tracking of grantee progress, and increase the quality of the data. Currently, DFC grantees interact with multiple separate systems. ONDCP awarded a contract for the more robust DFC grant oversight system in January 2015 following a competitive request for proposals process. This new online system is anticipated to encompass three sub-systems aimed at strengthening oversight of the DFC Program: (1) a two-way communication tool to facilitate system-wide or targeted announcements to DFC grantees, distribute information related to the DFC Program, and solicit responses for information; (2) a progress reporting tool for grantees to submit semi-annual quantitative and qualitative data pertaining to their grant progress; and (3) a grant application submission tool to assist communities who are interested in applying for DFC funding. DFC grantees are required to participate in three aspects of data reporting related to the grant, most of which will remain unchanged from the revision requested in 2012 OMB. The requested revisions represent system enhancements and item/content revisions and are intended to reduce grantee reporting burden while maintaining quality of data available for the evaluation. In addition, these requested revisions will allow for better reporting of process, output, and outcome data.
