TTA Model Statement

Attachment 6: Model Statement

TTA programs events are supported through federal and state funding. The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), our source of federal funding, requires performance monitoring of all TTA program events. The intent of the performance monitoring is to provide data on whether events for communities and healthcare providers such as addiction counselors, psychologists, social workers, health educators, counselors (prevention, school and career) and other allied professionals have an impact on prevention and treatment outcomes. We all know that well-trained and informed professionals positively impact client outcomes, but we need the data to demonstrate that this is true. We believe this performance monitoring will provide such data.

You will be asked to fill out a number of forms for this assessment, including a follow-up questionnaire that will be sent to you 60 days after the end of this event. While your participation is voluntary, any feedback you provide is critical for us to continue to provide no cost and low-cost events.
