The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), Center for Mental Health Services announces the availability of funds for fiscal year (FY) 2007 to expand/enhance grant activities funded under the Comprehensive Community Mental Health Services for Children and Their Families grant announcement.
The purpose of the Comprehensive Community Mental Health Services for Children and Their Families Program (CMHI) is to develop integrated home and community-based services and supports for children and youth with serious emotional disturbances and their families by encouraging the development and expansion of enduring and effective systems of care.

CMHI grants are authorized under Part E of Title V, Section 561 et. Seq. of the Public Health Service Act, as amended. This announcement addresses Healthy People 2010 focus area 18 (Mental Health and Mental Disorders).

Eligibility is further limited to CMHI grantees currently funded under Request for Applications SM-02-002, SM-03-009 and SM-05-010 to maximize the effectiveness of the available funds.
