DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES

Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration


Fiscal Year (FY) 2009 Funding Opportunity

AGENCY: Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, HHS.

ACTION: Notice of intent to award a Single Source Supplement Grant to 
the Community Anti-Drug Coalitions of America (CADCA).

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

SUMMARY: This notice is to inform the public that the Substance Abuse 
and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) intends to award 
approximately $30,000 (total costs) for one year to the Community Anti-
Drug Coalitions of America (CADCA). This is not a formal request for 
applications. Assistance will be provided only to the Community Anti-
Drug Coalitions of America (CADCA) based on the receipt of a 
satisfactory application that is approved by an independent review 
group.
    Funding Opportunity Title: SP-09-007.
    Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance (CFDA) Number: 93.243.

    Authority: Sections 509, 516 and 520A of the Public Health 
Service Act, as amended.

    Justification: Only the Community Anti-Drug Coalitions of America 
(CADCA) is eligible to apply. The Substance Abuse and Mental Health 
Services Administration (SAMHSA) is seeking to supplement a single 
source grant to the Community Anti-Drug Coalitions of America (CADCA) 
to support a Prevention Town Hall Meeting and a Partners Meeting at 
CADCA's Mid-Year Training Institute. The Training Institute will 
disseminate knowledge and transfer state-of-the-art information, 
assisting community leaders in developing effective local programs, 
practices, and policies that support national substance abuse goals, 
outcomes and efforts, such as National Alcohol and Drug Addiction 
Recovery Month, and prevention of underage drinking. The Prevention 
Town Hall Meeting will provide an in-depth overview of substance abuse 
prevention principles, and make the link to community-level change 
strategies promoted by the Drug-Free Communities grant program. The 
Partners Meeting is intended to bring all Federal and other key 
constituents together to update and discuss new initiatives and ongoing 
projects. Grant funds will also support evaluation of the Prevention 
Town Hall Meeting to obtain findings and identify directions for future 
trainings.
    The Community Anti-Drug Coalitions of America (CADCA) is uniquely 
qualified to carry out the activities of this program because the 
purpose of the program is to partner with a national organization that 
has special expertise and unique broad, national-level experience in 
working with community anti-drug coalitions. CADCA is the only national 
organization that annually provides training and technical assistance 
through a mid-year leadership conference for thousands of members of 
community coalitions dedicated to preventing substance abuse. CADCA 
currently is the sole organization that plays a major role in helping 
to strengthen and develop the nation's prevention infrastructure of 
anti-drug coalitions in support of on-going activities funded by 
SAMHSA's priority grant programs including: the Substance Abuse 
Prevention and Treatment Block Grant, the Strategic Prevention 
Framework State Incentive Grant, and the Drug Free Communities Support 
Program. CADCA is the only identified organization that currently meets 
this experience level and national reach to over 5,000 identified anti-
drug coalitions across the country.
