If you have questions or recommendations related to this metadata entry and extracted data, please contact the CAFE Data Management team at: [e-mail]. N-SUMHSS releases yearly public-use files (PUFs). These are full datasets treated with confidentiality protections. The PUFs contain facility data on mental health and substance use treatment services. This includes location, characteristics, service provision and utilization of substance use and mental health treatment facilities. Note, the codebooks may not contain all variables. [Quote from https://www.samhsa.gov/data/data-we-collect/n-sumhss-national-substance-use-and-mental-health-services-survey/datafiles] The PUFs available each year have varied over time. This dataset is believed to contain a union of all the available PUFs. They include the N-SUMHSS files of the dataset title (2021 to 2023) but also N-MHSS files (2010 to 2020), N-SSATS files (1997-2020), and UFDS files (1997-1998). Most data is available in a variety of formats, including Delimited (tab or comma), R, SAS, SPSS, and Stata. Files are organized here in zip files by year. Within each year are one or more collection folders with names like: collection_1283-N-SUMHSS where the collection number was a value used in the web page dropdown control and the more meaningful abbreviation was derived from the actual filenames within the collection.
