Description
The
Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), Center for
Center for Substance Abuse Treatment (CSAT) is accepting applications for
fiscal year (FY) 2018 Enhancement and Expansion of Treatment and Recovery
Services for Adolescents, Transitional Aged Youth, and their Families grant
program (Short Title: Youth and Family TREE). The purpose of this program is to
enhance and expand comprehensive treatment, early intervention, and recovery
support services for adolescents (ages 12-18), transitional aged youth (ages
16-25), and their families/primary caregivers with substance use disorders
(SUD) and/or co-occurring substance use and mental disorders. The population of
focus is adolescents and/or transitional aged youth and their families/primary
caregivers with SUD and/or co-occurring substance use and mental disorders
(hereafter known as “the population of focus”). Based on need and
identification of traditionally underserved populations, applicants may choose
to provide services to adolescents and their families/primary caregivers,
transitional aged youth and their families/primary caregivers, or both
populations and their families/primary caregivers. Applicants that select
transitional aged youth may choose a subset of this population of focus (e.g.,
ages 16-18, ages 18-21, ages 21-25). Applicants will be expected to identify
and reduce differences in access, service use, and outcomes of services among
females and racial and ethnic minority populations to address health
disparities. SAMHSA recognizes that effective and quality treatment for
adolescent and transitional aged youth includes age and developmentally
appropriate evidence-based assessments and practices. In addition, SAMHSA
recognizes that family/primary caregiver involvement in the adolescent and
transitional aged youth’s treatment is a key factor in effective treatment and
recovery programs. The recipient will be expected to provide a coordinated
multi-system family centered approach that will enhance and expand
comprehensive evidence-based treatment, including early intervention, and
recovery support services to the population of focus.
