Grants to Expand Substance Abuse Treatment Capacity in Targeted Areas of Need - Local Recovery Oriented Systems of Care
(Short title: TCE - Local ROSC)
|
|
Description
|
Grant Amount: Up to $4.8 million. The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, Center for Substance Abuse Treatment is accepting applications for fiscal year (FY) 2010 Grants to Expand Substance Abuse Treatment Capacity in Targeted Areas of Need - Local Recovery-Oriented Systems of Care (TCE - Local ROSC). This program is designed to foster the development and utilization of local recovery-oriented systems of care to address gaps in treatment capacity by supporting person-centered and self-directed approaches for substance abuse (including alcohol and drug) treatment and recovery services in communities with serious drug problems. The purpose of this program is to expand the community’s ability to provide integrated and comprehensive community-based responses to a targeted, well-documented substance abuse treatment capacity problem and/or improve the quality and intensity of services. This program serves to develop local recovery-oriented systems of care that will expand and/or enhance substance abuse services and promote recovery. The local recovery-oriented system of care must include linkages between substance abuse treatment/recovery services and primary health care and mental health care services. Applicants will also be expected to establish at least two additional linkages with systems/services appropriate to their population of focus. The focus is on providing support for local organizations, including grass-roots, faith- and community-based treatment programs, and recovery community organizations, that can link services critical to the population of focus and deliver them in a manner consistent with the principles of recovery-oriented systems of care.
Using a local recovery-oriented system of care approach, applicants may propose to expand substance abuse treatment and recovery support services and outreach, to enhance substance abuse treatment and recovery support services and outreach, or to do both.
1) Service Expansion: An applicant may propose to increase access and availability of treatment and recovery support services to a larger number of persons seeking recovery. Applicants must state clearly the number of additional clients/people in recovery to be served for each year of the proposed grant (see Appendix J).
2) Service Enhancement: An applicant may propose to improve the quality and/or intensity of treatment and recovery support services, for instance, by adding treatment and recovery support services that help individuals sustain health, wellness and recovery from alcohol and drugs. Applicants proposing to enhance treatment and recovery support services must indicate the number of clients who will receive the new enhancement services.
This program is being announced prior to the appropriation for FY 2010 for SAMHSA’s programs, with funding estimates based on the President’s budget request for FY 2010. Applications are invited based on the assumption that sufficient funds will be appropriated
for FY 2010 to permit funding of a reasonable number of applications solicited. All applicants are reminded, however, that we cannot guarantee that sufficient funds will be appropriated to permit SAMHSA to fund any applications.

Notes
|
The proposed local recovery-oriented system of care must include linkages between substance abuse treatment/recovery services and primary health care and mental health care services, e.g.: primary health care, (e.g. Federally Qualified Health Centers, family practice clinics); mental health, (e.g. community mental health centers) and substance abuse treatment services. Applicants must also demonstrate in their application that they have extensive linkages to a network of service providers and other systems on the local level that address the needs of the individuals and families they serve. Therefore, applicants will also be expected to establish at least two additional linkages with systems/services appropriate to their population of focus. Examples of possible community linkages include, but are not limited to access/referral to:
community-focused educational and preventive efforts;
school-based activities such as after school programs;
private industry-supported work placements for recovering persons;
recovery housing providers;
faith-based organizations;
organizations serving the homeless;
HIV/AIDS community-based outreach projects;
opioid treatment programs;
organizations providing health education and risk reduction information; and
STD, hepatitis B (including immunization) and C, rapid HIV and TB testing in public health clinics. |
