Thank you for taking the time to answer some questions about funding streams for community-based organizations (CBOs). These questions should take
no more than 10 minutes of your time.
The intent of this project is to improve the flow of federal and state funds to CBOs serving underserved populations. Since some of the questions focus on funding, it may be necessary for someone with knowledge regarding the operations of your organization (e.g., executive director, corporate financial officer, or someone on the leadership team) to answer the questions.
This survey is being administered by the
National Association of State Mental Health Program Directors Research Institute (NRI). Your responses will contribute to a federal Substance Use and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) report which will be publicly available on the
SAMHSA Center for Financing Reform and Innovation website.
Please answer every question. In some cases, you may give your BEST estimate or choose an answer that closely fits your organization. Once you have submitted your responses, a confirmation email will be sent to you. This email will contain a link for you to return to your responses to review and make edits, as necessary. You may also enter your email address at the top of the survey page by
clicking on the toolbar that says, "Save and continue later" to save your progress and receive an email to return at a later time.
Your responses are confidential. Results will be reported in aggregate, without identifying individuals or organizations.
If you have any questions about this initiative, please contact Kristin Neylon (
