About this opportunity
The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) is soliciting applications to establish or expand Assertive Community Treatment (ACT) programs for transition-aged youth (age 18-25), adults, and older adults with serious mental illness, with applications due by July 27, 2026. ACT is an intensive, team-based, community-based service delivery model providing comprehensive, multidisciplinary care including 24/7 crisis response, medication management, therapy, case management, and support with housing, employment, and daily living needs. The program prioritizes individuals with serious mental illness who are experiencing homelessness or are at imminent risk of homelessness.
Eligible applicants include domestic private and public non-profit organizations (including faith-based organizations), states (including the District of Columbia, U.S. Territories, and Pacific Jurisdictions), political subdivisions of states, consortia of political subdivisions of states, public or private institutions of higher education, Indian tribes or tribal organizations, federally recognized tribal governments, health facilities and hospitals, programs operated under contract or award with the Indian Health Service, and state, local, or tribal education agencies.
This opportunity is funded under CFDA 93.532, Center for Mental Health Services Projects of Regional and National Significance. Awards are made through grants and cooperative agreements. Merit review includes application assessment by SAMHSA; applications are awarded directly to applicants after consideration of merit review, program analysis, and concurrence by the CMHS National Advisory Council. Award amounts, number of awards, and period of performance are determined as part of the Notice of Funding Opportunity. Recipients must retain records for three years beyond the award period, or longer if final audit has not been completed.
