The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, Center for Substance Abuse Treatment is accepting applications for fiscal year (FY) 2007 for Addiction Technology Transfer Centers (ATTC) grants. The purpose of this program is to develop and strengthen the workforce that provides addictions treatment services to 23 million Americans age 12 and older who need treatment for alcohol or illicit drug problems (NSDUH, 2005). In partnership with Single State Authorities, treatment provider associations, addictions counselors, multidisciplinary professionals, faith and recovery community leaders, family members of those in recovery, and other stakeholders, the ATTCs assess the training and development needs of the substance use disorders workforce, and develop and conduct training and technology transfer activities to meet identified needs. Particular emphasis is on raising awareness of and improving skills in using evidence-based and promising treatment/recovery practices in recovery-oriented systems of care.
ATTC grants are authorized under Section 509 of the Public Health Service Act, as amended. This announcement addresses Healthy People 2010 focus area 26 (Substance Abuse).
Eligible applicants are domestic public and private nonprofit entities. For example, State and local governments, federally recognized American Indian/Alaska Native tribes and tribal organizations, urban Indian organizations, public or private universities and colleges, and community- and faith-based organizations may apply. The statutory authority for this program prohibits grants to for-profit agencies.
| Funding Mechanism: |
Cooperative Agreement |
| Anticipated Total Available Funding: | $7.8 million |
| Anticipated Number of Awards: | 15 ATTC awards |
| Anticipated Award Amount: |
$500,000 - $550,000 (See Appendix E of the RFA) |
| Length of Project Period: | Up to 5 years |
Proposed budgets cannot exceed the amount specified in the table in Appendix E in total costs (direct and indirect) in any year of the proposed project for ATTC grants. Annual continuation awards will depend on the availability of funds, grantee progress in meeting project goals and objectives, and timely submission of required data and reports.
SAMHSA anticipates that from time to time additional funds for the ATTC grant program may be available for supplements for special projects. As CSAT identifies special projects, supplemental awards will be made based on the area of expertise you identify in Section E of your Project Narrative, the score you receive for this section, and other factors CSAT identifies as relevant to the project. The points awarded for Section E will not be factored into the priority score for the basic ATTC award.
Only grantees funded under this announcement are eligible for supplements for special projects. Applicants should be aware that all grantees may not receive supplements for special projects.
