Purpose of Meeting: The President’s 

Advisory Commission on Asian 

Americans, Native Hawaiians, and 

Pacific Islanders, authorized by 

Executive Order 14031, will meet to 

discuss full and draft recommendations 

by the Commission’s six Subcommittees 

on ways to advance equity, justice, and 

opportunity for Asian American, Native 

Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander 

communities. The Subcommittees are: 

Belonging, Inclusion, Anti-Asian Hate, 

Anti-Discrimination; Data 

Disaggregation; Language Access; 

Economic Equity; Health Equity; and 

Immigration and Citizenship Status. 

Background: Asian American, Native 

Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander 

individuals and communities have 

molded the American experience, and 

the contributions and achievements of 

AA and NHPI communities make the 

United States stronger and more vibrant. 

The richness of America’s multicultural 

democracy is strengthened by the 

diversity of AA and NHPI communities 

and the many cultures and languages of 

AA and NHPI individuals in the United 

States, who collectively constitute the 

fastest growing racial group in the 

Nation and make rich contributions to 

our society, our economy, and our 

culture. 

Systemic barriers to equity, justice, 

and opportunity put the American 

dream out of reach of many AA and 

NHPI communities. Many AA and NHPI 

individuals face persistent disparities in 

socioeconomic, health, and educational 

outcomes. Linguistic isolation and lack 

of access to language-assistance services 

continue to lock many AA and NHPI 

individuals out of opportunities. Data 

collection practices fail to measure and 

reflect the diversity of AA and NHPI 

populations. Failure to disaggregate data 

contributes to enduring stereotypes 

about Asian Americans as a ‘‘model 

minority’’ and obscures disparities 

within AA and NHPI communities. 

Tragic acts of anti-Asian violence 

have increased during the COVID–19 

pandemic, casting a shadow of fear and 

grief over many AA and NHPI 

communities, in particular East Asian 

communities. Long before this 

pandemic, AA and NHPI communities 

in the United States, including South 

Asian and Southeast Asian 

communities, have faced persistent 

xenophobia, religious discrimination, 

racism, and violence. At the same time, 

AA and NHPI communities are 

overrepresented in the pandemic’s 

essential workforce in healthcare, food 

supply, education, and childcare, with 

more than four million AA and NHPIs 

manning the frontlines throughout the 

pandemic. Additionally, while they 

make up just four percent of registered 

nurses in the U.S., Filipino nurses 

accounted for 32 percent of nurse lives 

lost to COVID–19 in 2020. 

Many AA and NHPI communities, 

and in particular Native Hawaiian and 

Pacific Islander communities, have also 

been disproportionately burdened by 

the COVID–19 public health crisis. 

Evidence suggests that Native 

Hawaiians and Pacific Islanders are 

three times more likely to contract 

COVID–19 compared to white people 

and nearly twice as likely to die from 

the disease. On top of these health 

inequities, many AA and NHPI workers, 

families, and small businesses have 

faced devastating economic losses 

during this crisis, which must be 

addressed.

Proposed Project: Protection and 

Advocacy for Individuals With Mental 

Illness (PAIMI) Final Rule, 42 CFR Part 

51 (OMB No. 0930–0172)—Extension 

These regulations meet the directive 

under 42 U.S.C. 10826(b) requiring the 

Secretary to promulgate final 

regulations to carry out the PAIMI Act 

(42 U.S.C. 10801 et seq.). The 

regulations contain information 

collection requirements. The Act 

authorizes funds to support activities on 

behalf of individuals with significant 

(severe) mental illness (adults) or 

significant (severe) emotional 

impairment (children/youth) as defined 

by the Act at 42 U.S.C. 10802(4) and 

10804(d). Only entities designated by 

the governor of each State, including the 

American Samoa, Guam, 

Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana 

Islands, Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, 

U.S. Virgin Islands, District of Columbia 

(Mayor), and the tribal councils of the 

American Indian Consortium (the Hopi 

Tribe and the Navajo Nation located in 

the Four Corners region of the 

Southwest), to protect and advocate the 

rights of persons with developmental 

disabilities are eligible to receive PAIMI 

Program grants [ibid at 42 U.S.C. at 

10802(2)]. These grants are based on a 

formula prescribed by the Secretary 

[ibid at 42 U.S.C. at 10822(a)(1)(A)]. 

On January 1, each eligible state 

protection and advocacy (P&A) system 

is required to prepare an annual PAIMI 

Program Performance Report (PPR). 

Each annual PPR describes a P&A 

system’s activities, accomplishments 

and expenditures to protect the rights of 

individuals with mental illness 

supported with payments from PAIMI 

program allotments during the most 

recently completed fiscal year. Each 

P&A system transmit a copy of its 

annual report to the Secretary (via 

SAMHSA) and to the State Mental 

Health Agency where the system is 

located per the PAIMI Act at 42 U.S.C. 

10824(a). Each annual PPR must 

provide the Secretary with the following 

information: 

• The number of (PAIMI-eligible) 

individuals with mental illness served; 

• A description of the types of 

activities undertaken; 

• A description of the types of 

facilities providing care or treatment to 

which such activities are undertaken; 

• A description of the manner in 

which the activities are initiated; 

• A description of the 

accomplishments resulting from such 

activities; 

• A description of systems to protect 

and advocate the rights of individuals 

with mental illness supported with 

payments from PAIMI program 

allotments; 

• A description of activities 

conducted by states to protect and 

advocate such rights; 

• A description of mechanisms 

established by residential facilities for 

individuals with mental illness to 

protect such rights; 

• A description of the coordination 

among such systems, activities, and 

mechanisms; 

• Specification of the number of 

public and nonprofit P&A systems 

established with PAIMI program 

allotments; and 

• Recommendations for activities and 

services to improve the protection and 

advocacy of the rights of individuals 

with mental illness and a description of 

the need for such activities and services 

that were not met by the state P&A 

systems established under the PAIMI 

Act due to resource or annual program 

priority limitations. 

Each PAIMI grantee’s annual PPR 

must include a separate section, 

prepared by its PAIMI Advisory Council 

(PAC), that describes the council’s 

activities and its assessment of the state 

P&A system’s operations per the PAIMI 

Act at 42 U.S.C. 10805(7). 

In 2017, SAMHSA included the 

annual PAIMI PPR in the Web-based 

Block Grant Application System 

(WebBGAS). WebBGAS, SAMHSA’s 

electronic data system, is used to collect 

grantee information for the following 

reasons: 

(1) To meet the OMB requirements for data 

collection for mandatory (formula) grant 

programs; 

(2) To comply with the annual program 

reporting requirements of the PAIMI Act, 42 

U.S.C. 10801 et seq. and the PAIMI Rules 42 

CFR part 51; 

(3) To simplify the submission of PAIMI 

Program data by the state P&A systems; 

(4) To meet the Government Performance 

and Results Act (GPRA) requirements; 

(5) To comply with the Government 

Accountability Office (GAO) evaluation 

recommendations that SAMHSA obtain 

information that closely measures the actual 

outcomes of the programs it funds; 

(6) To reduce the grantee data collection 

burden by removing information that did not 

facilitate evaluation of a PAIMI grantee’s 

programmatic and financial management 

systems; 

(7) To provide immediate access to the 

PAIMI program data used to prepare a 

section of the Secretary’s biennial report to 

the President, Congress, and National 

Council on Disability in accordance with the 

Developmental Disabilities Assistance Act of 

2000 at 42 U.S.C. 15005. Reports of the 

Secretary; 

(8) To improve SAMHSA’s ability to create 

reports, analyze trends, and provide timely 

feedback to the P&A grantees when PPR 

revisions are needed. 

On June 12, 2020, OMB approved 

SAMHSA’s PPR and Advisory Council 

Report (Control No. 0930–0169,

Project: Center for Substance Abuse 

Prevention’s (CSAP) ‘‘Talk. They Hear 

You.’’ Screen 4 Success Instruments 

and Consent Form. (Office of 

Management [OMB] No. 0930–XXXX) 

SAMHSA is requesting approval for 

its ‘‘Talk. They Hear You.’’ media 

campaign’s ‘‘Screen 4 Success’’ Consent 

Form and Screener. The ‘‘Talk. They 

Hear You.’’ campaign aims to reduce 

underage drinking and substance use 

among youths under the age of 21 by 

providing parents and caregivers with 

information and resources they need to 

address alcohol and other drug use with 

their children early. The new ‘‘Talk. 

They Hear You.’’ campaign’s ‘‘Screen 4 

Success’’ mobile app is an interactive 

tool to help parents and caregivers, 

educators, and communities get 

informed, be prepared, and take action 

to prevent underage drinking and other 

drug use. Specifically, it provides these 

groups with the ability to self-screen 

and self-manage referrals as a 

prevention service. Parents have a 

significant influence in their children’s 

decisions to experiment with alcohol 

and other drugs. 

SAMHSA and its Centers will use the 

data for annual reporting: (1) Reporting 

results of the campaign’s performance, 

(2) evaluating the effectiveness of the 

application and its utility and (3) 

assessing the accountability and 

performance of this component and the 

overall media campaign, including a 

focus on health equity. 

The tools reflect CSAP’s desire to 

elicit pertinent participant level data 

that can be used to not only guide future 

programs and practice, but also respond 

to stakeholder, congressional and 

agency inquiries. For a more in-depth 

review of the screener and consent form, 

please see Attachments A–C. 

This information will be used by 

SAMHSA to help improve the 

accountability and performance of its 

‘‘Talk. They Hear You.’’ program and 

social media campaign (each of which 

refer to this component and other 

resources). Specifically, the program 

evaluators will use the information 

collected through this request to 

generate annual performance reports 

that assess the impact of this SAMHSA 

program outcomes. This information 

will also be used to inform 

recommendations regarding future 

programming should the program 

continue to be funded. 

The information collected from these 

forms is captured by the ‘‘Screen 4 

Success’’ mobile app and made 

available to the ‘‘Talk. They Hear You.’’ 

media campaign evaluators in real time. 

Approval of this data collection activity 

will allow SAMHSA to continue to 

assist those under the age of 21, and 

parents to screen themselves, the 

parents and client in identifying 

individuals that may need further 

assessment or intervention for the 

alcohol use, drug use, suicide 

prevention, and other mental health 

needs. Many of these issues occur at the 

same time in youth and require referral 

to co-occurring programs so there is 

significant value in screening quickly 

for all of them at the same time. By 

implementing this screener, we hope to 

be able to divert individuals who might 

be at risk of alcohol dependence and 

these other problems to effective 

programs and services.
