Description
This funding opportunity supports the launch and expansion of integrated, evidence-based substance use disorder (SUD) services—including opioid use disorder (OUD)—in rural communities. The goal is to reduce SUD-related morbidity and mortality and to enable sustained recovery and well-being. The program funds new or expanded prevention, treatment, and recovery services, strengthens coordination with supportive social services, develops a responsive workforce, and builds multi-sector community networks for long-term sustainability.
RCORP-Impact is the largest and most comprehensive initiative in the Rural Communities Opioid Response Program (RCORP) portfolio, targeting high-impact outcomes in rural America. Projects must address all four program goals: direct SUD service delivery, supportive services, workforce development, and network engagement/sustainability.
