Note These supplemental funds will be awarded to the drug court grantee. However, these funds may be used to purchase the services outlined in the RFA from the existing substance abuse treatment provider or another appropriate community based provider. Rapid HIV testing administration, results, and counseling documents will be considered a component of the current substance abuse treatment regimen and, therefore, all appropriate confidentiality statutes and regulations are applicable. SAMHSA believes that the most effective way to accomplish the goals of this one year supplemental program is to limit eligibility to the identified existing SAMHSA MAI and Criminal Justice grantees because they have the infrastructure and partnerships already in place to rapidly implement the HIV rapid testing services without a lengthy start up period or lengthy breaks in service. Furthermore, SAMHSAs drug court and offender reentry grants serve individuals involved in the justice system who have higher rates of substance use disorders and are at a much higher risk of contracting and transmitting HIV, STDs, and hepatitis than the general population. For many defendants/offenders/inmates, the criminal justice system provides a first chance for basic health care, substance abuse treatment, prevention education, and counseling and testing. This can help them break the cycles of addiction, incarceration, and disease transmission. These services also can benefit the families of those involved in the justice system and the larger community through reduced disease transmission, reduced medical and social welfare costs, and reduced drug associated crime.
