General Applicant Information.docx

This document is a template for general applicant information required for the Drug-Free Communities (DFC) Support Program grant application. Applicants must provide contact information and organizational details for three key personnel positions: the Authorized Organization Representative (AOR), the Program Director/Principal Investigator (PD/PI), and the Project Coordinator. Each personnel entry requires name, title, physical address, city/state/ZIP code, phone number, and email address. Additionally, applicants must submit the coalition's mission statement focused on prevention and reduction of youth substance use, identify the specific substances of use by youth addressed in the application, and document the coalition's establishment date and all ZIP codes served.

The template also requires applicants to provide community demographic and operational information, including population size, median income of the service area, and confirmation of whether the coalition serves a federally recognized tribal area. Applicants must disclose any geographic overlap with other DFC-funded coalitions and, if overlap exists, submit a Letter of Mutual Cooperation. For coalitions serving tribal areas, applicants must confirm representation from the Bureau of Indian Affairs, Indian Health Service, or a tribal government agency with substance use expertise. Finally, applicants must provide their System for Award Management (SAM) registration date, with active registration required for application eligibility.
