About this file

This is a Congressional Notification template document required for applicants to the Drug-Free Communities (DFC) Support Program competing continuation grant for Fiscal Year 2026. The notification must be completed and submitted with the application in the exact format provided. The document serves as a public-facing summary that will be shared with members of Congress, media outlets, and potentially posted on the DFC website if the application receives funding. The template requires applicants to provide standard organizational information including the legal applicant organization, coalition name, community contact details, and the specific federal congressional district(s) being served.

The Congressional Notification includes a Project Description section with strict formatting requirements: not to exceed 35 lines and limited to one page. Applicants must describe how the coalition will establish and strengthen community collaboration to prevent youth substance use, identify the community served with total population figures, outline implementation strategies addressing specific substance use prevention initiatives (such as drugged driving or opioid prevention), and specify the grant award amount requested. The DFC Support Program, administered by the Department of Health and Human Services Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in cooperation with the White House Office of National Drug Control Policy, provides grants to community coalitions that have completed their initial five-year funding cycle or experienced a lapse in funding, with awards typically ranging from $250,000 to $500,000 annually over up to five-year performance periods.
