About this program
The Executive Office of the President's Office of the National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP) administers Congressional Directives (CFDA 95.010), a grant program that funds special projects and programs designated in annual Consolidated Appropriations Acts, with the most recent award issued on August 1, 2024.
This program funds substance use disorder prevention, treatment, and recovery support initiatives across diverse settings. Recent awards include peer pressure resistance programs in youth facilities, supportive outreach following overdose, collegiate recovery programming, substance abuse prevention at community colleges and universities, youth drug reduction initiatives, treatment facilities for neonatal abstinence syndrome, and data analytics infrastructure for behavioral health outcomes research. Awards support a mix of direct service delivery, prevention education, counselor staffing, recovery support networks, and evaluation activities.
The program distributes Project Grants exclusively; all 19 awards in the portfolio are Project Grants. ONDCP is the sole funding federal agency, accounting for 100 percent of both award count and federal dollars obligated.
Between June 2023 and August 2024, the program obligated $23.5 million across 19 awards, averaging roughly 9.5 awards annually. Award values span a wide range: the Arkansas Youth Drug-Use Reduction Program received $5 million, the Mississippi Drug-Use Reduction Program received $5 million, and a substance use prevention initiative received $4.4 million, while smaller awards funded peer support and community engagement efforts at magnitudes of $35,000 to $230,000. The program has maintained consistent activity and funding volume over this recent period.
