Abstract
As part of the annual application for Block Grant funds, it is required that the chief executive officer of the applicant organization certify that the State will comply with specific citations. Grant funds will only be expended for the purpose of planning, carrying out, and evaluating activities to prevent and treat substance abuse. Certification regarding debarment and suspension; drug-free workplace requirements; lobbying; program fraud; and environmental tobacco smoke are documented. Public reporting burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 15 minutes per response, including time for reviewing instructions, searching existing data sources, gathering and maintaining the data needed, and completing and reviewing the collection of information. The following questions must be addressed. The first question is who will be served. The applicant must describe the target population and provide an estimate of the number of persons to be served in the target population. The second question is what activities/services will be provided, expanding, or enhanced. This may include activities/services by treatment modality or prevention strategy. The third question is when will the activities/services be implemented for ongoing activities/services. Information must be included on the progress toward meeting the goals including dates on which integral activities/services began or will begin. The fourth question is where in the State or geographic area will the activities/services be undertaken, including counties, districts, regions, or cities. The fifth question is how will the activities/services be operationalized. This may be through procurement, subcontractors or grantees, or intra-governmental agreements.
