Encrypted Emails for Client IDs

As some of you are aware, the TA Team reaches out to agencies periodically to follow up on various GPRA issues (i.e. missing client ID numbers, incorrect interview dates, etc.). For confidentiality purposes, client ID numbers and other identifying information cannot be communicated via email. From now on, the SOR TA Team will be sending encrypted emails when contacting agencies about GPRA issues specific to an individual client.

Quarterly Treatment Survey

To most accurately report to SAMHSA on all SOR-funded treatment services at CSBs and FQHCs, OMNI is collecting information through a brief, quarterly treatment survey.

We will be using this survey to capture information on all SOR-funded treatment services, which are not fully represented by the GPRA, due the exclusion of GPRA administration for some SOR-funded services. Results from this survey will assist OMNI in reporting CSB and FQHC work to SAMHSA to meet grant requirements.

The non-Federal entity must disclose in writing any potential conflict of interest to the Federal awarding agency or pass-through entity in accordance with applicable Federal awarding agency policy. Failure to adhere to these statues will result in immediate termination of funding.

Virginia’s State Opioid Response (SOR) grant is awarded at the discretion of DBHDS and SAMHSA. All recipients of SOR funding supports evidence-based prevention, treatment and recovery services to address opioid and stimulant misuse and use disorders, including for cocaine and methamphetamine. The SOR grant is not intended to be utilized as a long-term or permanent funding source. All SOR proposals must include a realistic plan for financial sustainability beyond the grant period.
