About this opportunity
The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) is seeking a cooperative agreement to establish a Suicide Prevention Resource Center aimed at building national capacity for suicide prevention. The primary objective is to provide comprehensive technical assistance, training, and resources to states, tribes, communities, providers, practitioners, and the public on suicide prevention strategies and best practices. Applicants should demonstrate expertise in developing and disseminating suicide prevention resources, creating training programs, and supporting evidence-based intervention strategies. While specific evaluation criteria are not explicitly detailed, proposals will likely be assessed on their ability to effectively develop and distribute suicide prevention resources, create impactful training programs, and provide actionable technical assistance to diverse stakeholders. The grant opportunity was posted on August 7, 2024, with a proposal due date of July 22, 2025, allowing potential applicants substantial time to develop comprehensive proposals.
The Federal Grant Opportunity falls under the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Projects of Regional and National Significance program (CFDA 93.243), with typical award values ranging from $120,000 to $5,000,000 and project periods spanning 3-5 years. Eligible applicants include state mental health agencies, universities, community health centers, and nonprofit organizations focused on behavioral health. The place of performance is expected to be nationwide, with the resource center potentially operating from a central location while providing support and resources to communities across the United States. The cooperative agreement will focus on developing a national infrastructure to support suicide prevention efforts, with the ultimate goal of reducing suicide rates and supporting mental health interventions at various levels of community and institutional settings.
