SAMHSA Grants FY 2006: Treatment Systems for Persons Who are Homeless
Newly released (well, yesterday): SAMHSA Grants FY 2006: Treatment Systems for Persons Who are Homeless
Quick Highlights:
The purpose of Treatment for Homeless grants is to enable communities to expand and strengthen their treatment services for homeless (including chronically homeless) individuals with substance abuse disorders, mental illness, or with co-occurring substance abuse disorders and mental illness. The goal is to link treatment services with housing programs and other services (e.g., primary care).
Eligibility is restricted by statute to community-based public and private nonprofit entities. Current Treatment for Homeless grantees are not eligible to apply under this funding announcement unless their grant ends in 2006.
And now, the part you really care about: It is expected that up to $9.7 million will be available to fund up to 25 awards in FY 2006. Of this amount, $3.7 million will be available for grants directed at chronic homelessness. Annual awards are expected to be $400,000 per year in total costs (direct and indirect) for up to 5 years.
Even better - Cost sharing is not required in this program.
Full RFP available through the link.
(Props to the great state of Aimee, who tipped me to the announcement)
