Assessment of the Communities Talk: Town Hall Meetings

to Prevent Underage Drinking

Supporting Statement

A. Justification

A.1 Circumstances of Information Collection

The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration/Center for Substance Abuse Prevention (SAMHSA/CSAP) is requesting a revision from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) of the information collection regarding the Assessment of the Communities Talk: Town Hall Meetings to Prevent Underage Drinking (UAD). The current data collection has approval under OMB No. 0930-0288, Assessment of the Town Hall Meetings on Underage Drinking Prevention, which expires on January 31, 2017. Revisions were made to the two existing data collection instruments: the Organizer Survey (Attachment 1) and the Participant Form (Attachment 2, English version; and Attachment 3, Spanish version). The data collection method for these instruments remains unchanged. SAMHSA is adding a new data collection instrument titled the Organizer Survey – 6 month Follow-up (Attachment 4), in which hosts of the Communities Talk events will opt in to provide information on any actions that were taken as result of the Communities Talk event.

As described in the U.S. Surgeon General’s Call to Action To Prevent and Reduce Underage Drinking, “Underage alcohol consumption in the United States is a widespread and persistent public health and safety problem that creates serious personal, social, and economic consequences for adolescents, their families, communities, and the nation as a whole” (U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, 2007).

• In 2015, about 7.7 million persons ages 12 to 20 (20.3 percent of this age group) reported drinking alcohol in the past month. Approximately 5.1 million (13.4 percent) were binge drinkers, and 1.3 million (3.3 percent) were heavy drinkers (Center for Behavioral Health Statistics and Quality [CBHSQ], 2016b).

• In 2015, 1.3 percent of persons ages 12 or 13, 7.4 percent of persons ages 14 or 15, 19.7 percent of 16- or 17-year-olds, and 40.9 percent of 18- to 20-year-olds drank alcohol in the past 30 days (CBHSQ, 2016a).

• During adolescence, the brain undergoes significant growth and remodeling. UAD can alter this development, potentially affecting both brain structure and function, and may cause cognitive or learning problems (Matsen, Faden, Zucker, & Spear, 2008).

• Among the 61.4% of students nationwide who had driven a car or other vehicle during the past month, 7.8% of high school students nationwide had driven a car or other vehicle when they had been drinking alcohol (Kann et al., 2016).

• Between 2006 - 2010, alcohol was estimated to be a factor in the deaths for 4,358 young people under age 21 each year: 1,580 youth died in motor vehicle crashes; 1,269 died from homicides; 245 died from alcohol poisoning, falls, burns, and drowning; and 492 from suicides (National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism, 2016).

To help address the problem of UAD and its consequences, SAMHSA, as the lead agency for the Interagency Coordinating Committee on the Prevention of Underage Drinking, sponsors nationwide Communities Talk events every 2 years. These events are intended to work at the grassroots level to raise awareness of the public health dangers of UAD and to engage communities in evidence-based prevention. Notably, Communities Talk events provide a forum for communities to discuss ways they can best prevent UAD by reducing the availability of alcohol and by creating community norms that discourage demand.

Since this initiative began in 2006, community-based organizations (CBOs) recruited by SAMHSA have held nearly 9,000 Communities Talk events, in every state, the District of Columbia, and most U.S. territories. Although SAMHSA still is assessing data collected from the 1,500 CBOs that received a planning stipend to hold a Communities Talk event in 2016, a preliminary analysis suggests that these events can be a positive catalyst for change. For example, more than one quarter (27.45 percent) of participants in 2016 events reported their intention to become involved in local prevention activities. Nearly 11 percent of participants reported their intention to contact their local legislators or policymakers as a result of the event.

SAMHSA is responsible for improving the accessibility to and the quality of substance use prevention services. It provides national leadership in the development of policies, programs, and services to prevent the onset of illegal drug use, as well as underage alcohol and tobacco use, and to reduce the negative consequences of using these substances. Under Section 515(b) of the Public Health Service Act (42 USC 290bb-21), SAMHSA is directed to develop effective alcohol use prevention literature and to ensure the widespread dissemination of prevention materials among states, political subdivisions, and school systems. This information collection is being implemented under authority of Section 501(d)(4) of the Public Health Service Act (42 USC 290aa).

A.2 Purpose and Use of Information

SAMHSA supports nationwide Communities Talk events every other year. Collecting data on each round of Communities Talk events, and using this information to inform policy and measure impact, supports SAMHSA’s strategic initiative number 1: Prevention of substance use and mental illness. A specific goal under this initiative is to prevent or reduce the consequences of UAD and adult problem drinking; a specific objective is to establish the prevention of UAD as a priority issue for states, territories, tribal entities, colleges and universities, and communities.

SAMHSA will use the information collected to document the implementation efforts of this nationwide initiative, determine if the federally sponsored Communities Talk events lead to additional activities within the community that are aimed at preventing and reducing UAD, identify what these activities may possibly include, and help plan for future rounds of Communities Talk events. SAMHSA intends to post online a summary document of each round of Communities Talk events and present findings at national conferences attended by CBOs that have hosted these events and might host future events. Similarly, SAMHSA plans to share findings with the Interagency Coordinating Committee on the Prevention of Underage Drinking. Agencies within this committee encourage their grantees to participate as the event hosts.

Additionally, the information collected will support performance measurement for SAMHSA programs under the Government Performance Results Act (GPRA). Data specifically related to training, technical assistance, and information dissemination will be collected and submitted for the Science and Service budget line item of the Congressional Justification report. The table below provides a crosswalk of the questions on the instruments to the measures in which the Science and Service contracts are being asked to gather and report collectively.

Three new questions were added pertaining to what influenced the decision to host an event (new q5), perception of how important UAD and its consequences is to the community (new q14), and agreement with mobilization actions statements (new q16).

The revisions were necessary to better align the data gathered to the short-term and long-term outcomes of the Communities Talk for event hosts, specifically—

Short-term

• Increase utility of training

• Increase utility of technical assistance

Long-term

• Increase national conversations about UAD

• Increase youth involvement in UAD

• Increase community mobilization for UAD prevention

• Increase organization capacity for prevention

• Increase use of evidence-based approaches to UAD prevention

Participant Form

Under the current approval, the Participant Form consists of 14 items. Under this revision, the Participant Form includes 17 items about the Communities Talk event. The following table provides a summary of the changes that were made to the instrument, in English and Spanish.

Current question/item	Changes made
Wording change for THM	Changed throughout to ‘Communities Talk’
q2-Location of event	Added Zip Code as a response option (new q2)
q3-Most important UAD issues facing community	Question wording change and response options updated (new q3)

Three new questions were added surrounding how often respondents are involved in UAD prevention in the community (new q9), likelihood will become more involved in UAD prevention in the community (new q10), and agreement with mobilization actions statements (new q12).

The revisions were necessary to better align the data gathered to the short-term and long-term outcomes of the Communities Talk, specifically—

Short-term

• Increase knowledge of UAD prevention

• Increase intentions to share information on UAD prevention

Long-term

• Increase national conversations about UAD

• Increase youth involvement in UAD

• Increase community mobilization for UAD prevention

New Data Collection Component

CBOs that opt in to be contacted 6 months after completing the Organizer Survey for SAMHSA to follow up on any actions that were taken as a result of the Communities Talk event in their community will be provided with the Organizer Survey – 6 month Follow-up. This survey will allow SAMHSA to measure progress towards the short- and long-term outcomes of the Communities Talk, specifically—

Short-term

• Increase utility of training

• Increase utility of technical assistance

Long-term

• Increase national conversations about UAD

• Increase youth involvement in UAD prevention

• Increase community mobilization for UAD prevention

• Increase capacity for prevention organizers

• Increase use of evidence-based approaches to UAD prevention

The Organizer Survey – 6 month Follow-up consists of 13 items and captures information on—

• Where the Communities Talk event was held;

• Awareness of UAD activities that have taken place as a result of the event;

• Community mobilization and collaboration efforts;

• Perception of the importance of UAD and its consequences to the community; and

• Increase in youth involvement in UAD prevention activities in the community.

SAMHSA/CSAP will be responsible for collecting, compiling, analyzing, and reporting on information requested through these instruments.

A.3 Use of Information Technology

Automated technology will be used in the collection of these data. Data will be collected using both a web-based (see Organizer Survey, Attachment 1 and Organizer Survey – 6 month Follow-up, Attachment 4) and paper-and-pencil (see Participant Form, Attachments 2 and 3, respectively) data collection method. There are several reasons for using a dual data collection approach:

• The efficiency of tracking adherence to the data submission requirement;

• Immediate availability of a captured audience;

• The limited amount of information to be collected;

• The limited amount of time in which to collect the information; and

• Maximization of response rates.

The web-based application will comply with the requirements of Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act to permit accessibility to people with disabilities.

A.4 Efforts to Identify Duplication

The information is collected only for this initiative and is not available elsewhere.

A.5 Involvement of Small Entities

No small businesses will be involved, but nearly all of the organizers of the Communities Talk events will be small CBOs. A stratified random sample of 500 CBOs will be selected for the Organizer Survey (Attachment 1) in the expectation of achieving 400 completed surveys. CBOs will opt in to complete the Organizer Survey – 6 month Follow-up (Attachment 4) through a question on the Organizer Survey. To minimize burden on these CBOs, the Organizer Survey and Organizer Survey – 6 month Follow-up were designed to contain mostly closed-ended questions and to be completed by only one member of the organization that was involved in planning the local event. The questions on both surveys require little or no checking of other documents and can be easily completed within a few minutes.

In addition to completing the Organizer Survey, a sample of CBOs (n=150) will be asked to collect feedback at the conclusion of their Communities Talk event from event attendees using the Participant Form (see Attachment 2 and 3). CBOs that already have a mechanism in place to collect feedback from event attendees will be given the option to incorporate questions from the Participant Form into their instrument. To further minimize burden on the CBOs, organizers will be provided a preaddressed postage-paid envelope to submit Participant Forms to the Communities Talk assessment team within 30 days of their event. They may, at their own discretion, also submit the data electronically to a designated e-mail address.

The items on these instruments are considered the minimum necessary to obtain the feedback needed by SAMHSA to assess and help plan for future Communities Talk events.

A.6 Consequences of Information Collected Less Frequently

Information on the Communities Talk events will be obtained once every other year. Without this information, SAMHSA will not be able to assess each event and plan better for future events or gauge the impact these events are having to help prevent underage and harmful drinking in communities across the country.

A.7 Consistency With the Guidelines in 5 CFR 1320.5(d)(2)

This information collection fully complies with 5 CFR 1320.5(d)(2).

A.8 Consultation Outside the Agency

The 60-day Federal Register Notice was published on November 8, 2016 (81 FR 78610). No comments were received.

Consultations were conducted with a representative within CBOs that organized a 2016 THM event. These consultations focused on the burden of completing the Organizer Survey and Organizer Survey – 6 month Follow-up; and how the organizations might use the findings should SAMHSA decide to share those findings with participating CBOs. Consultations were held with the following individuals:

Rev. Walter Jones Founder and Executive Director Fathers Who Care 4540 W. Washington Blvd Chicago, IL 60624 Email: [email protected]

Ms. Dorothy Johnson West Islip Youth Enrichment Services, Inc. 66 Ocean Ave Blue Point, NY 11715 Email: [email protected]

Dr. M. Dolores Cimini Assistant Director University at Albany 400 Patroon Creek Blvd Suite 104 Albany, NY 12206 Email: [email protected]

A.9 Payment to Respondents

Respondents will not receive any incentive or payment from SAMHSA for completing the data collection instruments.

A.10 Assurance of Confidentiality

For the Organizer Survey and Organizer Survey – 6 month Follow-up (see Attachment 1 and 4), data will not be associated with individual names but rather with organization names through a customized ID code. The ID code is used to track whether a Communities Talk event organizer has responded to the request to complete the survey.

For the Participant Form (see Attachment 2 and 3), no personal identifiers are collected on the form; therefore, it is anonymous. If personal identifiers that are collected for the local evaluation are accidentally submitted, SAMHSA will 1) immediately remind organizations to not submit personal identifiers and 2) strip the data of these identifiers prior to working with any forms/data files. The Participant Form will be associated only with the Communities Talk event for which the data were collected. This will allow the assessment team to provide a summarized report of the feedback received to the event host. Each form will be assigned an ID code that will be used as a running tally of the number of forms received.

This assessment has been under continuous review of the Institutional Review Board (IRB) at ICF since September 14, 2010. The most recent continuous review approval was granted on October 5, 2016 (see Attachment 5). The study will continue to be reviewed annually by the IRB.

A.11 Questions of a Sensitive Nature

Most SAMHSA data collections gather sensitive information on substance use and mental health. The purpose of this data collection is to gather information about the Communities Talk events to prevent UAD, an important topic that could be considered sensitive. Demographic information is requested from event attendees of sampled events, which could also be considered sensitive. It is expected that the vast majority of persons completing the Participant Form (which is anonymous) will be over the age of 18; however, because of the possibility that persons under the age of 18 had participated in the Communities Talk events, SAMHSA did not want to lose out on useful data about their perceptions of the event held in their community. No data are collected about individual use of alcohol or other substances.

The informed consent statement for the Organizer Survey and Organizer Survey – 6 month Follow-up, located on the opening page of the web-survey, will—

• Congratulate organizers for participating in the Communities Talk;

• Remind organizers that, as a participant in the Communities Talk, they agreed to participate in the survey;

• Reference how the information from the survey will be used;

• Provide how long it will take to complete the survey;

• State that responses will not be associated with the respondent’s or organization’s name in any reports;

• Provide an e-mail address and phone number to call if respondents have questions or concerns about their participation in the survey; and

• State that by continuing, respondents are consenting to participate in the survey on behalf of their organization.

The brief paragraph provided on the first page of the Participant Form will:

• Provide the purpose of the form;

• Describe how long it will take to complete the form;

• Mention that participation is voluntary;

• State that respondents can answer some or all of the questions;

• Note that the answers are very important to SAMHSA;

• Ask respondents to not write their name or other identifying information (e.g., birthday) anywhere on the form; and

• Thank respondents.

A.12 Estimates of Annualized Hour Burden

Biennially, the Organizer Survey will be completed by an estimated 500 Communities Talk event organizers and will require only one response per respondent. It will take an average of 10 minutes (0.167 hours) to review the instructions and complete the survey. Similarly, the Organizer Survey – 6 month Follow-up will be completed by an estimated 500 Communities Talk event organizers and will require only one response per respondent. It will take an average of 15 minutes (0.25 hours) to review the instructions and complete the survey. This burden estimate is based on comments from three 2016 Communities Talk event organizers who reviewed the survey and provided comments on how long it would take them to complete it.

Organizer Survey respondents will be the employees of a CBO. For the burden estimate, an hourly wage of $33.38 is used; it is based on an average annual salary of $69,430 for respondents who work 2,080 hours per year (2015 Occupational Employment Statistics; Management Occupations; Social and Community Service Managers [11-9151] occupation). The estimated annual cost is $2,787.23 for the Organizer Survey and $4,172.50 for the Organizer Survey – 6 month Follow-up.

The Participant Form will be completed by an average of 30 participants per sampled CBO (n=150) and will require only one response per respondent. It will take an average of 5 minutes (0.083 hours) to review the instructions and complete the form. The respondents will be the persons who attended the Communities Talk event. For the burden estimate, an hourly wage of $7.25 is used; it is based on the current federal minimum wage (U.S. Department of Labor, 2013). The estimated annual cost is $2,707.88.

Estimated Annualized Burden Table

Form Name	No. of Respondents	Responses per Respondent	Total Responses	Hours per Response	Total Hour Burden	Hourly Wage Cost	Total Hour Cost ($)
Organizer Survey	500	1	500	0.167	83.50	$33.38	$2,787.23
Organizer Survey – 6 month Follow-up	500	1	500	0.25	125.00	$33.38	$4,172.50
Participant Form	4,500	1	4,500	0.083	373.50	$7.25	$2,707.88
Total	5,500	—	5,500	—	582.00	—	$9,667.61

A.13 Estimates of Annualized Cost Burden to Respondents

The information collection does not entail any annual cost burden to respondents or record keepers resulting from the collection of information. No capital or startup costs will be incurred.

A.14 Estimates of Annualized Cost to the Government

Costs for this data collection include personnel for designing the web-based survey and conducting the data collection, which includes analyzing the data and preparing summary reports. Total annual contractor cost for this data collection is approximately $35,368. In addition, there are annual government staff costs of approximately 2 percent of a GS-13 project manager (approximately $2,150, assuming a Step 6) (Salary Table 2016-DCB, Office of Personnel Management, 2016). Overall, the estimated average annual cost of this assessment is $37,518 ($35,368 contractor cost + $2,150 government staff cost).

A.15 Changes in Burden

Currently there are 1,113 total burden hours in the OMB inventory. SAMHSA is requesting 582 hours. SAMHSA/CSAP is requesting a decrease of 531 hours due to the following:

• Adjustment of -84 hours due to the reduction in the amount of time it will take respondents to complete the Organizer Survey (from 20 to 10 minutes; based on comments from consultations outside the agency),

• Program change of -572 hours due to the reduction in the number of respondents to the Organizer Survey (from 2,220 to a sample of 500; due to initiative funding clarifications and to reduce burden on the CBO host-stipend universe [N = 1,500]); and

• Program change of 125 hours for the addition of the Organizer Survey – 6 month Follow-up.

A.16 Time Schedule, Publication, and Analysis Plan
