New Day Inc.

New Day Inc., a nonprofit community health organization based in Billings, Montana, operates as a federal grant recipient focused on substance use disorder treatment and nutritional services, with the majority of recent activity (83%) routed through sub-recipient relationships rather than as a prime grantee.

New Day's federal footprint centers on two distinct program areas. As a prime recipient, the organization holds a five-year project grant from the Department of Health and Human Services Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA Center for Substance Abuse Treatment) awarded September 30, 2023, running through September 29, 2028. The grant funds $400,000 annually to expand substance use disorder treatment capacity within New Day's existing partnership with the 13th Judicial District Drug Court in Yellowstone County, Montana. The program delivers initial and ongoing assessment services, intensive case management, mental health services for co-occurring disorders, intensive day treatment, intensive outpatient programming, and aftercare and relapse prevention services to up to 76 felony drug court participants annually, with an expectation to serve 388 participants over the five-year period. The initiative targets culturally sensitive treatment for adult offenders of all genders charged with felony offenses where substance abuse is a contributing factor, with the stated goals of increasing public safety, reducing recidivism, and supporting offender reintegration.

As a sub-recipient, New Day has received two awards under the Department of Agriculture Food and Nutrition Service School Nutrition program (CFDA 10.555), both from the Montana Office of Public Instruction, with award dates of February 10, 2025 and May 31, 2025. Combined dollars obligated across all six awards total $2.4 million. The organization has served three distinct federal agencies across the past five years of activity, with work concentrated in health and human services and nutrition assistance programs.
