Opportunity Summary:
The Projects to Deliver Peer to Peer Recovery Support Service opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number TI 11 016) was a discretionary grant competition run by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), specifically the Center for Substance Abuse Treatment, under the Recovery Community Services Program (RCSP). The central aim of the program was to fund peer to peer recovery support services designed to help people with alcohol and other drug use disorders avoid relapse and maintain long term, sustained recovery. In practical terms, SAMHSA was looking for applicants to deliver recovery supports led by people with lived experience and grounded in the idea that ongoing community based support can make recovery more stable after or alongside formal treatment. The announcement also tied the work to national public health priorities under Healthy People 2020, within the Substance Abuse topic area.
Funded projects were expected to do two main things. First, they had to provide peer to peer recovery support services that matched the needs and strengths of the communities they served, meaning services should be tailored to local realities rather than using a one size fits all approach. Second, organizations had to conduct a performance assessment of the services they delivered. That requirement signals SAMHSA was not only paying for service delivery, but also expecting grantees to track what they did and how well it worked, using measurable indicators of reach, quality, and outcomes related to recovery support and relapse prevention.
This grant program was authorized under Section 509 of the Public Health Service Act, as amended, and was listed under CFDA 93.243 (Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services - Projects of Regional and National Significance). The funding instrument type was a grant, and the activity category was health. SAMHSA anticipated making 8 awards, with an estimated total funding amount of $2,200,000. The maximum award amount (ceiling) was $274,000, with no stated minimum award floor, and there was no cost sharing or matching requirement, which generally means applicants were not required to contribute non federal funds as a condition of receiving the award.
Eligibility was tightly restricted. Only the eight organizations funded in the FY 2007 cohort of the RCSP program were eligible to apply. SAMHSA emphasized that this limitation was tied to the one year funding period and the need for grantees to already have the experience, expertise, and infrastructure to start quickly and carry out the required activities without a long ramp up period. In other words, this was effectively a continuation or targeted funding opportunity aimed at a specific existing cohort rather than an open competition for new applicants.
Key dates show the announcement was posted on June 24, 2011, with an application closing date of July 25, 2011, and it was archived on August 24, 2011.
