Title: Service Level Measurement--PREVENTS Survey.
OMB Control Number: None.

Abstract: This survey provides customer experience insights related
to the experience of Veterans in accessing services and resources made
possible via Executive Order 13861, known as the President's Roadmap to
Empower Veterans and End a National Tragedy of Suicide (PREVENTS).
Feedback on this survey from Veterans Service Organizations, Veterans,
and community organizations will help ensure that the PREVENTS Office
has the information it needs to implement the Roadmap and communicate
its efforts to empower Veterans and prevent suicide. Survey respondents
will include Veterans Service Organization Members, Veterans, and
individuals affiliated with nonprofit and community organizations. This
survey is a non-probability-based survey and is not intended to make
inferences about any overall population. This survey will be
administered to Veterans who are affiliated with Veteran Service
Organizations, individuals affiliated with Veteran-focused community-
based or nonprofit organizations, or individuals who are affiliated
with Veteran Service Organizations (VSOs).
The survey will be publicized via an article that contains a survey
link in a Blog in the Vet Resources Newsletter produced by the
Department of Veterans Affairs, email communications with Veterans
Service Organizations, and email, in-person, and video-message
communications to community-based organizations and strategic partners.
Collected data are uploaded to the VSignals survey analysis tool and
raw data are made present for analysis.
Survey questions focus on current and potential mental health
resources, communication channels, and outreach strategies that are
currently being provided, or could be provided, to Veterans to ensure
their safety and security.
Affected Public: Individuals.
Estimated Annual Burden: 4,767 hours.
Estimated Average Burden per Respondent: 5 minutes.
Frequency of Response: Once.
