SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Title: Suicide Prevention 2.0
Program—Community Opinion Survey.
OMB Control Number: 2900–0911.
https://www.reginfo.gov/public/do/
PRASearch.
Type of Review: Reinstatement with
change of a previously approved
collection.
Abstract: Legal authority for this data
collection is found in 38 U.S.C., Part I,
Chapter 5, Section 527, which
authorizes the collection of data that
will allow measurement and evaluation
of Department of Veterans Affairs (VA)
Programs, the goal of which is improved
health care for Veterans. The purpose of
the Community Opinion Survey (COS)
is to evaluate the impact of CommunityBased Intervention (CBI) programs,
including the Governor’s Challenge
(GC), on the population.
The information will be used to
accomplish three aims: (1) collect
baseline data on the knowledge and
attitudes of adult US citizens living in
specified communities about Veterans,
Veteran suicide, and resources available
to Veterans to reduce suicide, prior to
the implementation of suicide
prevention programs; (2) collect followup data in the same communities to
assess whether knowledge and attitudes
have changed over time; and (3)
determine whether the programs and
policies implemented by a community
resulted in positive change in
knowledge and attitudes.
The data will be utilized by the Office
of Suicide Prevention in VA Central
Office to measure the return on
investment of significant resources that
have been invested to support
communities in their efforts to reduce
Veteran suicide. The CBI arm of VA’s
‘‘Suicide Prevention 2.0’’ (SP2.0)
program has launched two initiatives
whose goals are to increase the
successful implementation of best
practices to prevent Veteran suicide in
local communities. The data collected
will allow VA to measure a baseline
level of expected outcomes, follow-up
levels, and explore the role of new
programs in any changes, as well as
inform program planning and
evaluation.
The GC is one of the initiatives
supported by SP2.0 and is structured so
that State teams are provided training
and technical assistance by VA to
expand their efforts to implement
suicide prevention programs in their
State. This data collection will assist the
State teams in assessing the effects of

their new programming or activities. To
date, 55 states and territories have
accepted the GC Initiative, and VA will
administer the COS in every
participating state and territory. The
increase in the number of respondents
and burden hours since the last PRA
clearance is due to the survey being
administered for completion of Time 2
data in the first 22 states and for Time
1 and Time 2 data in the remaining 33
states and territories
An agency may not conduct or
