Targeted Capacity Expansion Program for Substance Abuse Treatment and HIV/AIDS Services
(Short Title: TCE/HIV)
|
|
Description
|
Total Grant Amounts: Approximate $19.8 million.
The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), Center for Substance Abuse Treatment is accepting applications for fiscal year 2008 funds for grants to enhance and expand substance abuse treatment and/or outreach and pretreatment services in conjunction with HIV/AIDS services in African American, Latino/Hispanic, and/or other racial and ethnic communities highly affected by the twin epidemics of substance abuse and HIV/AIDS.
SAMHSA/CSAT encourages applications from organizations that serve African Americans, Hispanic/Latinos, and racial and ethnic minorities disproportionately impacted by the HIV/AIDS epidemic, based on the most recent estimated living AIDS cases, HIV infections and AIDS mortality among racial and ethnic minorities as reported by CDC.
SAMHSA/CSAT encourages applications from organizations whose board of directors, key staff, and management have demonstrated experience serving the targeted minority communities and can document linkages to those populations. They should also be situated in close geographic proximity and accessible to the targeted populations.
SAMHSA/CSAT encourages applications from substance abuse treatment programs and HIV/AIDS service organizations that have a proven record of reaching and serving hardcore, chronic drug users and their sex/needle-sharing partner(s) and facilitating their entry into substance abuse treatment, and who also demonstrate their success in referral, engagement, and retention beyond substance abuse treatment including recovery support services.
SAMHSA/CSAT is interested in applications submitted by organizations that can demonstrate ties to grassroots/community-based organizations that are deeply rooted in the culture of the targeted community.
