The National Syringe Services Program
Evaluation (NSSPE) will be used to inform planning and evaluation
of prevention programs that aim to reduce injection-related adverse
health outcomes among people who inject drugs. The primary goals of
the survey are to 1) assess and monitor syringe services programs
(SSPs) operations and services, client characteristics and drug use
patterns, funding resources, community relations, and key
operational and programmatic successes and challenges, and 2)
support timely analysis and dissemination of national program
evaluation survey findings. CDC will work with an award recipient
and North American Syringe Exchange Network (NASEN) to conduct
annual surveys.
The changes to the survey which include minor
wording changes to the questions, deleting one survey item at the
end of the survey, as well as modifying, adding, and separating
response options.
