The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, Center for Substance Abuse Treatment is accepting applications for fiscal year (FY) 2008 for Cooperative Agreements for Screening, Brief Intervention, Referral, and Treatment (SBIRT). The purpose of this program is to expand and enhance state/tribal substance abuse treatment service systems by:

  • Expanding the state's/tribe's continuum of care to include SBIRT in general medical and other community settings (e.g., community health centers, nursing homes, schools and student assistance programs, occupational health clinics, hospitals, and emergency departments);
  • Supporting clinically appropriate services for persons at risk for, or diagnosed with, a substance use disorder (i.e., substance abuse or dependence). (Note: for the purpose of this RFA, "at risk" is defined as persons who are using substances but who do not yet meet the criteria for a diagnosis of substance use disorders); and
  • Identifying systems and policy changes to increase access to treatment in generalist and specialist settings.
