Tier 4.C: up to $300,000
FUNDING STATUS: OPEN
TIER 4.C: This funding is designed to support projects that implement tailored Opioid Use Disorder (OUD)/Stimulant Use Disorder (STUD) programming to improve outcomes for a sub-population of individuals with substance use disorder. This Tier is designed to support the implementation of tailored, specialized OUD and STUD practices, services, or programs for specific populations with unmet and/or elevated needs. Note: recruiting special populations to participate in a standard project, program, or EBP does NOT qualify for Tier 4.C funding. There are two tracks available under this solicitation:
- Track 1: Treatment Providers
- To meet the criteria for a 4C project in the treatment provider track, the applicant must implement a new EBP, promising practice or innovation to tailor their treatment program to improve treatment outcomes for a sub population of individuals with OUD/STUD. The sub population may have unique needs (e.g., cultural, situational) that, when addressed, will result in improved outcomes. Recruiting special populations into existing programs is not a tailored treatment program because this award is designed to support specialized programming for a special population. DSAMH will not consider outreach/marketing projects as meeting the requirements.
- Treatment providers who intend to apply for a 4.C award must review and heed the Project Design Guidance for the Treatment Provider Track (linked on this page).
- Track 2: CBOs
- To meet the criteria for a 4C project in the CBO track, the applicant must engage individuals with OUD/STUD or expand the capacity of other CBOs to engage individuals with OUD/STUD effectively. Projects should be focused on tailored engagement and service provision approaches for a sub-population of individuals with OUD/STUD to better meet their unique needs (e.g., cultural, situational) or to build the capacity of another CBO to deliver a tailored engagement for a sub-population of individuals with OUD/STUD. Recruiting special populations into existing programs is not a tailored program. This award is designed to support specialized programming for a special population DSAMH will not consider outreach/marketing projects as meeting the requirements.
- CBOs who intend to apply for a 4.C award must review and heed the Project Design Guidance for CBOs Track (linked on this page).
