Opportunity Summary:
The Strategic Prevention Framework Partnerships for Success State and Tribal Initiative (SPF PFS) is a SAMHSA Center for Substance Abuse Prevention (CSAP) discretionary grant program offered as a cooperative agreement for FY 2015. Its purpose is to strengthen and expand substance misuse prevention efforts using the Strategic Prevention Framework approach, with a clear focus on two national prevention priorities: reducing underage drinking among youth ages 12 to 20 and reducing prescription drug misuse and abuse among youth and young adults ages 12 to 25. In practical terms, the opportunity is aimed at helping jurisdictions apply data-driven planning, community and stakeholder partnerships, and evidence-based prevention strategies to lower risk factors and increase protective factors related to these two substance use issues.
The opportunity was posted on December 17, 2014, with an application deadline of March 16, 2015, and it was later archived on April 15, 2015. SAMHSA anticipated making about 38 awards under this announcement, with an estimated total funding pool of $28,000,000. Individual awards could be as high as $2,472,608, and there was no stated award floor. The program does not require cost sharing or matching funds, which typically means applicants are not expected to contribute a specific non-federal funding percentage as a condition of award.
Eligibility is limited and targeted. Applicants must be states (including two U.S. territories and one Pacific jurisdiction, as referenced in the announcement) or eligible tribal entities. In addition, applicants must have completed a Strategic Prevention Framework State Incentive Grant (SPF SIG) and must not currently be receiving SAMHSA Partnerships for Success (PFS) funding. This structure signals that the program is intended to build on prior SPF SIG capacity and infrastructure, extending prevention systems work in places that have already demonstrated experience with the SPF model while avoiding duplication with jurisdictions already funded under PFS.
Administratively, this is a cooperative agreement rather than a standard grant, which generally indicates SAMHSA expects to have substantial involvement in the project beyond routine monitoring. The listing is associated with CFDA number 93.243 (Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Projects of Regional and National Significance). For technical issues accessing the full announcement, the contact listed is Eileen Bermudez in SAMHSA's Office of Financial Resources, Division of Grants Management, located in Rockville, Maryland, with phone and email contact information provided in the notice.
