The National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) New Hampshire received a $127,989 Project Grant from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) under the Congressional Directives program (CFDA 93.493). The funding will enable NAMI NH to provide expanded support services for individuals, families, and communities affected by co-occurring mental health and substance use disorders in New Hampshire.
Specifically, NAMI NH will enhance its family support group for those impacted by co-occurring disorders, deliver up to three no-cost educational webinars on co-occurring disorders, train additional support group leaders with lived experience, and explore opportunities to expand programming related to co-occurring disorders. By collaborating with community partners and leveraging the expertise of substance use disorder specialists, NAMI NH aims to bridge the historical gap between mental health and substance use treatment systems and offer integrated support, education, and resources. The project period runs from September 30, 2024 to September 29, 2025, with the goal of serving approximately 752 Granite State residents affected by co-occurring disorders.
