The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), through the Health Resources and Services Administration's (HRSA) Community Health Centers program (CFDA 93.224), awarded a $1,200,000 Project Grant to Lamprey Health Care Inc., a non-profit Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC) in New Hampshire. The grant funding will be used to expand Lamprey Health Care's behavioral health and substance use disorder (SUD) treatment services over a 2-year period from September 2024 to August 2026. Specifically, the organization plans to: 1) Recruit 3 FTE behavioral health and SUD providers; 2) Expand collaborations with community partners to reduce care fragmentation; 3) Increase Medications for Opioid Use Disorder (MOUD) program services; 4) Partner with a pharmacy to enhance patient access; 5) Provide mobile health services in partnership with a local mental health center; and 6) Renovate facilities to reduce SUD stigma. The project aims to increase Lamprey Health Care's capacity to serve vulnerable populations facing disparities related to mental health, substance use, and social determinants of health.
