Strategic Prevention Framework Partnerships for Success (SPF-PFS)
Cross-Site Evaluation, Grantee-Level Instrument—Revised

Information and Directions

Purpose

The Grantee-Level Instrument—Revised (GLI-R) is designed to collect information at the State, tribal, or jurisdiction level. Data collected from the survey will be used to monitor State, tribal, or jurisdiction performance and evaluate the effectiveness of the Strategic Prevention Framework Partnerships for Success (SPF-PFS) program across states, tribal entitites, and jurisdictions. The overall goal of the cross-site evaluation is to document and assess the effectiveness of the PFS approach to SAMHSA’s mission of reducing underage drinking and prescription drug misuse and abuse.

Organization of the Survey

The GLI-R survey provides a snapshot of the prevention system at the beginning and end of the PFS grant period by collecting data about each grantee’s organizational structure, planning, data systems, workforce development, capacity building, and integration of cultural competencies into the prevention system. A select number of questions will be asked only at baseline or only at follow-up.

The questions in this survey refer to the overall (State-, tribal-, or jurisdiction-level) prevention system, not just operational features of the PFS program. The prevention system is defined as the entire set of agencies, organizations, and persons that contribute to efforts to prevent substance abuse and related problems within the State, tribal entitity, or jurisdiction. Throughout this document, the terms you or your refer to the grantee—State, tribal entity, or jurisdiction.

Make sure to read all of the directions and examples, which are provided in italics. This Web-based survey will automatically take you to the appropriate question, but you should still follow the directions closely.

Inclusion of Key Informants

You are strongly encouraged to obtain input from others involved with the SPF-PFS-funded project. 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-PFS grant.

People you may want to include in responding to the GLI-R (if these positions are applicable to your grant)—

• Project Director

• Project Coordinator

• State Epidemiology and Outcomes Workgroup (SEOW) Liaison

• Data Coordinator

• Local Evaluator

• Key stakeholders or partners

Helpful Materials

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

• Strategic plans

• Meeting minutes

• Evaluation findings and reports

• 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. You may also 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) 558–0724 or by emailing [email protected]. You can request assistance at any time and someone will respond to you within 24 hours or on the next business day.

Definition of Terms

There are several terms used throughout this instrument for which the Center for Substance Abuse Prevention (CSAP) provides the definitions here.

States, tribal entities, and jurisdictions may interpret the definitions of terms somewhat differently from communities. Interpret the terms as they apply to you as the primary grantee; however, please provide responses that align with the definitions below.

Capacity refers at the State, tribal, or jurisdiction level to the demonstrated ability of the grantee workforce to effectively perform, promote, or facilitate a set of activities, processes, or competencies necessary to prevent substance abuse; the availability of needed resources (e.g., infrastructure) necessary to support communities’ delivery of substance abuse prevention interventions; or both. At the subrecipient level, capacity is the demonstrated ability of subrecipients to effectively implement each SPF step (e.g., implementation of evidence-based interventions) and the resources (human, organizational, and fiscal) to support the implementation of the SPF model.

Community refers to the politically or geographically defined area, or culturally or epidemiologically defined target population, that the grantee or subrecipient chooses for prevention intervention.

Cultural competence is the attainment of knowledge, skills, and attitudes to enable administrators and practitioners to provide assistance and services to diverse or culturally distinct populations. It includes understanding the language, beliefs, norms, and values of a population’s members, as well as socioeconomic and political factors that may have a significant impact on their well-being, and incorporating those variables into interventions.

Grantee refers to the administrative entity of a State, tribal entitity, or territory receiving PFS funds for delivery of substance abuse prevention interventions.

Infrastructure is the underlying foundation or basic framework that supports the effective functioning of the prevention system in the delivery of substance abuse prevention interventions.

Interventions are activities or groups of activities to which a group is exposed in order to change the group’s behavior. In substance abuse prevention, interventions are used to prevent or lower the risk or rate of substance abuse or substance abuse-related problems.

Prevention workforce refers to staff at the State, tribal, jurisdiction or community level responsible for carrying out substance abuse prevention activities, including setting policies, delivering services, providing technical assistance, and conducting evaluations.

Process evaluation focuses on how a program was implemented and operates. It addresses whether the program was implemented and is providing services as intended, assesses the reasons for successful or unsuccessful performance, and provides information for potential replication.

Region refers—for the purposes of this survey—to a politically or geographically defined area or district within a State, tribal entity, or jurisdiction that may cross counties or encompass more than one county.

Subrecipients are the entities (usually community-based organizations, schools, or coalitions) that receive funds from the grantee to carry out PFS activities and 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.

Technical assistance consists of services provided by professional prevention staff to guide prevention programs, community organizations, and individuals to effectively implement each SPF step.

Training services are the delivery of structured events intended to develop proficiency in the SPF steps, including sustainability and cultural competency.

The questions in this survey refer to the overall (State, tribal entity, or jurisdiction) prevention system, not just PFS project operations. We are defining the prevention system as the entire set of agencies, organizations, and persons that contribute to efforts to prevent substance abuse and related problems within the State, tribal entity, or jurisdiction.
