About this opportunity
The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), the Center for Substance Abuse Treatment (CSAT) and the Center for Mental Health Services (CMHS), is accepting applications for fiscal year (FY) 2013 Cooperative Agreements to Benefit Homeless Individuals for States (CABHI-States) grants. The purpose of this jointly funded program is to enhance or develop the infrastructure of states and their treatment service systems to increase capacity to provide , coordinated/integrated, and evidence-based treatment services; permanent supportive housing; peer supports; CMHS-funded peer and other critical services to persons who experience chronic homelessness with substance use disorders or co-occurring substance use and mental disorders. The outcomes will include: 1) assisting states to develop strategies associated with addressing the needs of individuals who experience chronic homelessness; and 2) increasing the number of individuals placed in permanent supportive housing and enrolled in Medicaid and other mainstream benefits ( SSI/SSDI, TANF, SNAP).The major goal of the CABHI-States program is to ensure, through state and local planning and service delivery, that the most vulnerable individuals who experience chronic homelessness receive access to sustainable permanent supports, and Medicaid and other mainstream benefits. To achieve this goal, SAMHSA funds will support four primary types of activities. CSAT funds will support three primary types of activities:1. Enhancement or development of a statewide plan to ensure sustained partnerships across public health and housing systems that will result in short- and long-term strategies to support individuals who experience chronic homelessness. 2. Delivery of behavioral health, housing other recovery-oriented services not covered under a state’s Medicaid plan.3. Assist the state Medicaid eligibility agency in developing a streamlined application process for individuals who experience chronic homelessness and assist providers ( alcohol and drug treatment facilities, homeless service providers) seeking to become qualified Medicaid providers. As well, engage and enroll eligible persons who experience chronic homelessness in Medicaid and other mainstream benefit programs ( SSI/SSDI, TANF, SNAP).CMHS funds will support the fourth primary activity, peer navigator(s):4. Use of a peer navigator to assist individuals who have co-occurring substance use disorders with serious mental illness identify and access housing, recovery support services, social mainstream benefits, and personal network development. SAMHSA has demonstrated that behavioral health is essential to health, prevention works, treatment is effective, and people recover from mental, substance use, and co-occurring mental and substance use disorders. To continue to improve the delivery and financing of prevention, treatment and recovery support services, SAMHSA has identified eight Strategic Initiatives to focus the Agency’s work on people and emerging opportunities. More information is available at the SAMHSA Web site: http://www.samhsa.gov/About/ This program is aligned with all Strategic Initiatives and specifically Recovery Support. If your application is funded, you will be expected to: 1) develop a health disparities impact statement. This statement should utilize grantee data to identify subpopulations ( racial, ethnic, sexual/gender minority groups) vulnerable to health disparities; and (2) develop a plan to decrease the differences in access, service use and outcomes among those subpopulations. This plan should include use of the National Standards for Culturally and Linguistically Appropriate Services (CLAS) in Health and Health Care. See Appendix I: Addressing Behavioral Health Disparities. CABHI-States is one of SAMHSA’s services grant programs. SAMHSA intends that its services grants result in the delivery of services as soon as possible after award.
