Opportunity Summary:
The Prevention of Methamphetamine Abuse grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number SP 09 006) is a SAMHSA program administered through the Center for Substance Abuse Prevention (CSAP) that offers supplemental grant funding to expand methamphetamine prevention work that began under the FY 2006 Prevention of Methamphetamine Abuse announcement (SP 06 005). Rather than starting new projects from scratch, this opportunity is designed to help the original cohort of funded programs continue and scale what they already built, using their existing staff capacity, partnerships, and community infrastructure to push prevention efforts further.
The core purpose is straightforward: strengthen and broaden local prevention strategies so communities can better prevent, reduce, and/or delay methamphetamine use. SAMHSA frames the need in community-wide terms, emphasizing that methamphetamine harms extend beyond the person using the drug by destabilizing families, endangering children, straining public systems, and driving broader economic and social costs. With these supplemental dollars, grantees are expected to expand ongoing activities that address methamphetamine abuse and addiction locally, reinforcing prevention messaging and interventions in ways that fit each community's specific risks and realities.
Eligibility is tightly limited. Only the 12 existing grantees that received awards under the FY 2006 methamphetamine prevention RFA can apply for and receive these supplemental funds. SAMHSA explains this restriction as a practical response to limited new funding: directing money to organizations already demonstrating relevant experience and proven operational readiness is seen as the best way to maximize impact quickly. The announcement notes that these grantees have established meth prevention programs in their communities, built school-based prevention efforts for at-risk children, coordinated with law enforcement and community coalitions to educate the public about the dangers of meth production and use, developed responses for drug-endangered children affected by adult meth production and use, and produced data supporting program results.
From a funding and administrative perspective, this is a discretionary grant in the health category, listed under CFDA 93.243 (Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Projects of Regional and National Significance). SAMHSA anticipated 12 awards with an estimated total funding amount of $1,186,000 and an award ceiling of $98,833 (no stated award floor). There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement, which lowers financial barriers for the eligible organizations and allows funds to be directed primarily to program expansion rather than meeting match obligations.
The timeline reflects a limited application window typical of supplemental competitions. The opportunity was posted and created on May 19, 2009, with an original and current closing date of June 18, 2009, and an archive date of July 18, 2009. The statutory authority is Section 519E of the Public Health Service Act (as amended), and the work aligns with Healthy People 2010 focus area 26 on Substance Abuse, signaling that the program is meant to support national public health prevention priorities while being implemented through targeted local initiatives.
