Opportunity Summary:
The 2016 Cooperative Agreements to Benefit Homeless Individuals (CABHI) grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number SM 16 007) is a discretionary federal funding program offered by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, through the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA). It is jointly supported by SAMHSA's Center for Mental Health Services (CMHS) and Center for Substance Abuse Treatment (CSAT) and uses a cooperative agreement funding mechanism, meaning SAMHSA expects to have substantial involvement with awardees in carrying out the work, beyond simply providing funds.
The overall purpose of CABHI is to strengthen and expand the infrastructure and service capacity needed to deliver mental health and substance use disorder treatment to people experiencing homelessness. The program is designed to help states and territories, local governments, tribes and tribal organizations, Urban Indian organizations, nonprofit entities, colleges and universities, and community- and faith-based organizations build systems that can provide treatment and supports that are accessible and effective, while also being comprehensive, coordinated, integrated, and evidence-based. In practice, this means CABHI is aimed at improving how communities identify, engage, treat, and support people who are homeless and who have significant behavioral health needs, while also ensuring those services are connected to housing and other essential supports.
CABHI targets several specific populations. One priority group is individuals experiencing chronic homelessness who also have substance use disorders (SUDs), serious mental illness (SMI), serious emotional disturbance (SED), or co-occurring mental and substance use disorders (CODs). Another priority group is veterans experiencing homelessness or chronic homelessness who have SUD, SMI, or COD. The program also includes families experiencing homelessness where one or more family members has SUD, SMI, or COD, as well as youth experiencing homelessness who have SUD, SMI, SED, or COD. Across these groups, the program emphasizes not only treatment services, but also related supports such as permanent supportive housing and peer supports, along with other critical services needed to stabilize health and improve long-term outcomes.
A central requirement of CABHI is a strong housing outcome expectation, especially for people experiencing chronic homelessness and for homeless or chronically homeless veterans served by the project. Grantees must locate permanent housing for all individuals or families in those categories who are served with CABHI-funded services. For families or youth experiencing homelessness, the minimum requirement is that grantees connect them to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Coordinated Entry system, which is the standardized local process used to assess needs and prioritize housing resources. While permanent housing is strongly encouraged for families and youth as well, the baseline requirement is linkage to Coordinated Entry. The opportunity clearly notes that transitional housing does not count as permanent housing, reinforcing the program's focus on long-term housing stability rather than time-limited placements.
From an applicant and funding standpoint, CABHI was posted on January 14, 2016, with an application closing date of March 15, 2016. SAMHSA anticipated making about 30 awards, with an award ceiling of $1,500,000 per award. The funding is associated with CFDA number 93.243 and falls under the health activity category, reflecting its emphasis on behavioral health treatment and related supportive services integrated with housing solutions for people experiencing homelessness.
