The Lawrence County (IL) Health Department (LCHD) was awarded a $1,050,000 Project Grant from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) under the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Projects of Regional and National Significance (CFDA 93.243) program. The 5-year grant, commencing on September 30, 2024, will enable LCHD to deliver comprehensive substance use disorder (SUD) treatment, recovery, and support services to at-risk pregnant and postpartum women and their children within a three-county service area in rural southwestern Illinois. The project will provide a continuum of care including SUD screening, assessment, and treatment (with medication-assisted treatment if needed), recovery support services, behavioral health care, primary care, case management, harm reduction, family/child development resources, and other social services. By addressing the significant lack of appropriate treatment and recovery resources in the region, particularly safe and stable recovery housing, the project aims to reduce infant and maternal mortality, decrease family disruption, and improve maternal and child health outcomes for this high-need, underserved population.
