Understanding SPARS and SUPRT Reporting

SAMHSA uses reporting systems to collect performance information from grant recipients. These requirements help the agency monitor program activities, assess outcomes, and meet federal accountability requirements.

Reporting responsibilities can vary by grant program and award. Grantees should review their award terms and applicable SAMHSA guidance to determine which reporting tools, measures, and deadlines apply.

"Changes to SUPRT-A and SUPRT-C bring new data collection requirements and new deadlines for many SAMHSA grantees," said Dr. William Medendorp, principal investigator at REA Analytics. "This session will help organizations understand what the changes mean, how to organize their approach, and get their questions answered."
