Abstract

This notice is to inform the public that the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) is supporting an administrative supplement in scope of the parent award for an eligible grant recipient funded under the FY 2022 Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinic (CCBHC) Planning, Development and Implementation Grants Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) SM-22-002. The total available funding is $2,000,000. This supplemental funding will be used to expand CCBHC services to the Kensington area in Philadelphia, PA, which is currently experiencing one of the highest overdose mortality rates in the nation. The proliferation of new medetomidine-linked overdoses and associated medical complications, along with the emergence of a homeless encampment in April and May of 2024, meets the threshold of a novel, unanticipated public health event and provides a compelling rationale for targeted action through a non-competitive supplement to an existing CCBHC to provide comprehensive mental health and substance use services in Kensington.

AGENCY: Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration 
(SAMHSA), Department of Health and Human Services (HHS).

ACTION: Notice of intent to award supplemental funding.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: This notice is to inform the public that the Substance Abuse 
and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) is supporting an 
administrative supplement in scope of the parent award for an eligible 
grant recipient funded under the FY 2022 Certified Community Behavioral 
Health Clinic (CCBHC) Planning, Development and Implementation Grants 
Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) SM-22-002. The total available 
funding is $2,000,000. This supplemental funding will be used to expand 
CCBHC services to the Kensington area in Philadelphia, PA, which is 
currently experiencing one of the highest overdose mortality rates in 
the nation. The proliferation of new medetomidine-linked overdoses and 
associated medical complications, along with the emergence of a 
homeless encampment in April and May of 2024, meets the threshold of a 
novel, unanticipated public health event and provides a compelling 
rationale for targeted action through a non-competitive supplement to 
an existing CCBHC to provide comprehensive mental health and substance 
use services in Kensington.
