The DIS is a data-driven, quality improvement effort to ensure under-resourced populations are addressed in the grant. The DIS is built on the required GPRA data such that no additional data collection is required. It is expected that the DIS will be no more than two pages in length. The DIS consists of three components: Number of individuals to be served during the grant period and identify under-resourced population(s) (i.e., racial, ethnic, sexual, and gender minority groups) vulnerable to behavioral health disparities. A quality improvement plan to address under-resourced population differences based on the GPRA data on access, use and outcomes of service activities. Methods for the development of policies and procedures to ensure adherence to the Behavioral Health Implementation Guide for the National Standards for Culturally and Linguistically Appropriate Services (CLAS) in Health and Health Care. As part of SAMHSA’s Disparity Impact Statement requirements, include the number of unduplicated individuals to be served by under-resourced populations in the grant implementation area provided in a table that covers the entire grant period. The under-resourced population(s) should be identified in a narrative that includes a description of the population and a rationale for how the determination was made. Include demographic data and an environmental scan of the population(s) of focus. For data about your population(s) of focus, refer to xxxxx://xxx.xxxxxx.xxx/about/partners/cic.html. Indicate what the disparity(ies) is and how your services and activities will be monitored and implemented to close the gap(s). In addition, describe how you will evaluate and disseminate the findings to your stakeholders. Examples of a DIS are available on the SAMHSA website at xxxx://xxx.xxxxxx.xxx/grants/grants-management/disparity-impact-statement. Definition of Health Disparities Healthy People 2030 defines a health disparity as a “particular type of health difference that is closely linked with social, economic, and/or environmental disadvantage. Health disparities adversely affect groups of people who have systematically experienced greater obstacles to health based on their racial or ethnic group; religion; socioeconomic status; gender; age; disability; mental health; cognitive, sensory, or physical disability; sexual orientation or gender identity; geographic location; or other characteristics historically linked to discrimination or exclusion.” Social Determinants of Health (SDOH) SDOH are the conditions in the environment where people are born, live, work, play, worship, and age that affect a wide range of health, functioning, and quality-of-life outcomes and risks.

The XXXXXX’s Behavioral Health DIS is a data-driven, quality improvement effort approach to ensure under-resourced populations are addressed in the grant. The DIS is built on the required GPRA data such that no additional data collection is required. It is expected that the DIS will be no more than two pages in length. The DIS consists of three components: Number of individuals advance equity for all, and to be served during the grant period and identify under-resourced population(s) (i.e., racial, ethnic, sexualsexual and gender minority, and gender minority groups) vulnerable to rural populations at highest risk for experiencing behavioral health disparitiesdisparities as part of their projects. A The purpose of the DIS is for recipients to identify and address health disparities9 and to develop and implement an action plan with a disparity reduction quality improvement process to close the identified gap(s). The aim is to achieve targeted behavioral health equity10 for disparate populations and improve systems. SAMHSA provides a DIS Worksheet that award recipients are expected to use to respond to this special condition of award. The main components of the DIS are: Identify and describe the scope of the problem (i.e., behavioral health disparity) related to the program and the population(s) of focus that experience disparate access, use, and outcomes. Identify data sources that will be used to inform the DIS (this should be in alignment with the information provided in your application). Complete a table that includes this information at the individual/client, organizational or systemic level as it relates to GPRA data collection requirements. Identify Social Determinant of Health (SDOH) domain(s) that your organization will work to address and improve for the identified population(s) of focus using the NOFO. Visit Healthy People 2030 for more information on the five (5) domains. Using the Behavioral Health Implementation Guide, identify Culturally and Linguistically Appropriate Services (CLAS) standards that your organization plans to meet, expand, or improve through this funding opportunity. Review the Behavioral Health Implementation Guide for full explanations of the overarching themes and 15 CLAS Standards with behavioral health related samples, strategies, and examples. Develop and implement a disparity reducing quality improvement action plan to address under-resourced the behavioral health disparity(ies) experienced by underserved population differences based on the GPRA data on access, use use, and outcomes of service activities. Methods for The plan should include realistic goals and SMART objectives (see Appendix E), the development activities that will be implemented to address disparities, the intended impact, timeline, measurement, and evaluation. Ensure documentation of policies the processes, progress, and procedures outcomes on how the identified behavioral health disparity(ies) have improved. Recipients are expected to ensure adherence to provide, at a minimum, an annual update on the Behavioral Health Implementation Guide for the National Standards for Culturally and Linguistically Appropriate Services DIS (CLASe.g., what worked, what did not work, what modifications were made) in Health and Health Care. As as part of SAMHSA’s Disparity Impact Statement requirements, include the number of unduplicated individuals to be served by under-resourced populations in programmatic progress reports per the grant implementation area provided in a table that covers the entire grant period. The under-resourced population(s) should be identified in a narrative that includes a description of the population and a rationale for how the determination was made. Include demographic data and an environmental scan of the population(s) of focus. For data about your population(s) of focus, refer to xxxxx://xxx.xxxxxx.xxx/about/partners/cic.html. Indicate what the disparity(ies) is and how your services and activities will be monitored and implemented to close the gap(s). In addition, describe how you will evaluate and disseminate the findings to your stakeholdersNOFO.

Addressing issues of equity should include an understanding of intersectionality and how multiple forms of discrimination impact individuals’ lived experiences. Individuals and communities often belong to more than one group that has been historically underserved, marginalized, or adversely affected by persistent poverty and inequality. Individuals at the nexus of multiple identities often experience unique forms of discrimination or systemic disadvantages, including in their access to needed services. Definition of Health Equity Health equity involves ensuring that is the attainment of the highest level of health for all people. Achieving health equity requires valuing everyone has a fair equally with focused and just opportunity ongoing societal efforts to be as healthy as possibleaddress avoidable inequalities, historical and contemporary injustices, and the elimination of health and health care disparities. Behavioral health equity is the right to access quality health care for all populations regardless of the individual’s race, ethnicity, gender, socioeconomic status, sexual orientation, or geographical location. This includes access to prevention, treatment, and recovery services for mental and substance use disorders. Under-resourced Underserved populations
