- Eligibility for the SPF PFS II is limited to recipients of the Substance Abuse Block Grant (SABG) that have completed a Cohort I, II or III Strategic Prevention Framework State Incentive Grant (SPF SIG) and are currently not receiving funds through SAMHSAs Partnerships for Success (PFS) grants. Applications must be signed and submitted by the agency that receives the SABG (i.e., by the Director of the Single State Agency for Substance Abuse in the States and the District of Columbia and by the equivalent official in the U.S. Territories). SAMHSA is limiting eligibility to these entities because they have the greatest likelihood of achieving success in just three years through the SPF PFS II grant program. Only these entities have the requisite experience and background critical to the success of the SPF PFS II 1) an established infrastructure and system in place, rooted in both the SABG and the SPF prevention model, that allows them to quickly build capacity in communities of need, mobilize those communities, and ensure accurate data collection and reporting at the community level 2) integration of the SPF based process into their overall prevention systems, ensuring a strong, data driven focus on identifying, selecting and implementing effective, evidence based prevention programs, policies and practices 3) experience in working collaboratively with communities to achieve substance abuse prevention goals 4) familiarity and experience with the alignment of behavioral health with primary prevention and 5) a history of building comprehensive, State level prevention systems over time. Current PFS grantees are excluded from applying for the SPF PFS II because they already have the resources in place to support the SPF infrastructure and address their areas of highest need, which can include underage drinking or prescription drug misuse and abuse. The statutory authority for this program prohibits grants to for profit agencies. Cost sharing/match are not required in this program.

Opportunity Summary:
The Strategic Prevention Framework Partnerships for Success II (SPF PFS II) is a SAMHSA discretionary grant program offered as a cooperative agreement to strengthen and accelerate state and territorial substance misuse prevention efforts using the Strategic Prevention Framework (SPF) model. The program is designed to build on existing prevention systems and infrastructure so that awardees can produce measurable prevention outcomes within a relatively short performance window (described as three years in the eligibility rationale). In practical terms, the opportunity targets jurisdictions that already have a mature, data-driven prevention approach and can quickly translate funding into coordinated community-level action, improved capacity, and reliable reporting.
Eligibility is tightly limited. Only the agencies that receive the Substance Abuse Block Grant (SABG) may apply, and only if they previously completed a Cohort I, II, or III Strategic Prevention Framework State Incentive Grant (SPF SIG) and are not currently receiving SAMHSA Partnerships for Success (PFS) grant funds. Applications must be signed and submitted by the SABG administering authority, meaning the Director of the Single State Agency for Substance Abuse in the states and DC, and the equivalent official in U.S. territories. Current PFS grantees are explicitly excluded, based on SAMHSA's view that those entities already have resources supporting SPF infrastructure and priority prevention needs (which may include issues such as underage drinking and prescription drug misuse). The program also cannot make awards to for-profit agencies under its statutory authority, and it does not require cost sharing or matching funds.
SAMHSA explains the narrow eligibility by emphasizing readiness and proven capacity. Eligible entities are expected to already have: an established prevention infrastructure rooted in SABG requirements and the SPF model; an integrated SPF-based process embedded in the broader state prevention system; experience collaborating with communities to reach prevention goals; familiarity with aligning behavioral health priorities with primary prevention strategies; and a track record of building comprehensive statewide prevention systems over time. These prerequisites are meant to ensure applicants can rapidly identify communities of greatest need, mobilize local partners, select and implement evidence-based programs, policies, and practices, and collect consistent community-level data for performance measurement and reporting.
From a funding and administrative standpoint, SPF PFS II was posted June 8, 2012 under Funding Opportunity Number SP 12-004 and CFDA 93.243 (SAMHSA Projects of Regional and National Significance). SAMHSA anticipated making about 18 awards, with an estimated total program funding level of $40,000,000. The award ceiling was listed as $1,200,000 (with a stated floor of $0). The application closing date was July 19, 2012, and the opportunity was later archived on August 18, 2012. Questions and assistance were directed to the SAMHSA Division of Grants Management contact listed in the announcement (Eileen Bermudez, Office of Financial Resources, Rockville, MD).
