The North Dakota Department of Human Services (NDDHS) received a $125,860 Block Grant award from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) under the Federal Block Grants for Community Mental Health Services program (CFDA 93.958). This two-year grant, running from September 30, 2024, to September 29, 2026, will enable NDDHS to provide comprehensive community mental health services to adults with serious mental illness and children with serious emotional disturbances across the state. The grant-funded services may include outpatient counseling, substance abuse treatment, crisis intervention, case management, housing assistance, peer support, workforce training, and public education campaigns aimed at prevention, treatment, and recovery. As the designated state agency, NDDHS frequently sub-awards portions of its federal grant funding to local government entities, tribes, non-profit organizations, and community providers to implement these critical mental health services at the local level throughout North Dakota.
