Opportunity Summary:
The Recovery Community Services Program Statewide Network (RCSP SN) grant opportunity was offered by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), through the Center for Substance Abuse Treatment (CSAT), for fiscal year 2014. It is a discretionary federal grant program (Funding Opportunity Number TI-14-001; CFDA 93.243) focused on strengthening the role of addiction recovery community organizations (RCOs) by helping them build or expand an organized statewide network. The larger goal is to make recovery communities a more visible, coordinated, and influential partner in substance use disorder treatment and recovery systems, as well as in related health systems that intersect with addiction services.
At its core, the program is designed to expand the capacity and infrastructure of RCOs and to elevate peer-led recovery supports. SAMHSA emphasizes that many states have made progress in recognizing peer recovery supports as legitimate and effective, but that additional work is still needed to fully integrate these services into statewide planning, implementation, and policy conversations. RCSP SN seeks to address that gap by supporting statewide coordination among recovery organizations and by strengthening the collective voice of people with lived experience of recovery. Grantees are expected to work in collaboration with other relevant groups to build recognition of the scope and value of RCOs, promote peer recovery services, and ensure that the peer voice is represented in state-level decision-making.
The opportunity specifically reflects SAMHSA's Strategic Initiative on Recovery Support and highlights lived experience as an asset in system design and service delivery. In practical terms, the intent is for RCOs to become stronger, more sustainable partners that can contribute meaningfully to treatment and recovery ecosystems, advocate for recovery-oriented policies, and support broader access to peer-based services and supports. The program is authorized under Section 509 of the Public Health Service Act (as amended) and aligns with the Healthy People 2020 Substance Abuse Topic Area.
Funding details for the announcement included an estimated total of $1,000,000, with SAMHSA anticipating about 10 awards. The award ceiling was $100,000 per grant, and there was no cost-sharing or matching requirement. The application window for this cycle opened with a posted date of December 31, 2013, and the closing date was March 5, 2014 (with an archive date of April 4, 2014).
Eligibility was narrowly defined to ensure authentic peer leadership. Applicants had to be domestic private nonprofit entities operating in states, territories, or tribes that meet SAMHSA's definition of an addiction recovery community organization: an independent nonprofit led and governed by representatives of local communities of addiction recovery, and controlled and managed by members of the addiction recovery community. For-profit agencies were prohibited from receiving awards under the statutory authority. Applicants also had to clearly demonstrate that they met the RCO definition and submit a required Certificate of Eligibility as part of the application (referenced as Appendix I in the request for applications).
For administrative and application access issues, the listed contact for the opportunity was Eileen Bermudez in SAMHSA's Office of Financial Resources, Division of Grants Management, located in Rockville, Maryland, with phone number (240) 276-1412 and email eileen.bermudez@samhsa.hhs.gov.
