Description
This opportunity supports the creation and implementation of regional partnerships among child welfare agencies, substance abuse treatment providers, and juvenile or state courts. The aim is to improve outcomes for children who are in, or at risk of, out-of-home placement due to caregiver substance abuse. Projects funded through this grant must focus on expanding evidence-based, family-centered treatment and support services, including medication-assisted treatment, in-home recovery services, early intervention, mental health services, parenting skills training, and replicating successful models for family-based substance use disorder treatment. The grant includes both a planning and implementation phase, and requires partnerships with specific agencies as legislatively mandated.
