Funding Opportunity Title: Grants To Expand Substance Abuse 
Treatment Capacity in Targeted Areas of Need (Short Title: Targeted 
Capacity Expansion (TCE) Grants)

    Announcement Type: Initial.
    Funding Opportunity Number: TI 05-003.
    Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance (CFDA) Number: 93.243.
    Due Date for Applications: January 13, 2005.

[Note: Letters from State Single Point of Contact (SPOC) in response

    Summary: The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services 
Administration (SAMHSA), Center for Substance Abuse Treatment (CSAT), 
announces the availability of FY 2005 funds for Grants to Expand 
Substance Abuse Treatment Capacity in Targeted Areas of Need [Short 
Title: Targeted Capacity Expansion (TCE) Grants]. A synopsis of this 
Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA), as well as many other Federal 
Government funding opportunities, is also available at the Internet 
site: http://www.grants.gov.
    For complete instructions, potential applicants must obtain a copy 
of SAMHSA's standard Services Grants Program Announcement, SVC-05 PA, 
and the PHS 5161-1 (Rev. 7/00) application form before preparing and 
submitting an application. The SVC-05 PA describes the general program 
design and provides instructions for applying for SAMHSA's Services 
Grants including the Targeted Capacity Expansion Grants program. 
SAMHSA's Services Grants provide funds to expand and strengthen 
effective, culturally appropriate substance abuse and/or mental health 
services at the State and local levels. The services implemented 
through SAMHSA's Services Grants must incorporate the best objective 
information available regarding effectiveness and acceptability. In 
general, SAMHSA's Services Grants are appropriate for applicants 
seeking Federal support to implement substance abuse and/or mental 
health services that have a strong evidence-base for effectiveness. 
SAMHSA's Services Grants must be used primarily to support direct 
service delivery. SAMHSA expects that the services will be sustained 
beyond the term of the grant. Additional instructions and specific 
requirements for the Targeted Capacity Expansion Grants are described 
below.

I. Funding Opportunity Description

    Authority: Section 509 of the Public Health Service Act, as 
amended and subject to the availability of funds.

    The purpose of the Targeted Capacity Expansion Grants program is to 
expand and/or enhance the community's ability to provide a 
comprehensive, integrated, and community-based response to a targeted, 
well-documented substance abuse treatment capacity problem and/or 
improve the quality and intensity of services. For example, a community 
might seek a Targeted Capacity Expansion Grant to add state-of-the-art 
treatment approaches or new services to address emerging trends or 
unmet needs (e.g., intensive case management, referral, and follow-up 
services to address related HIV, tuberculosis, hepatitis B and C, and 
other primary health care needs of substance abusing clients). 
Applicants are encouraged to engage (coordinate with or subcontract) 
the skills of private, non-profit, and community-based organizations 
not eligible to apply on their own because they are not a State or 
local government entity.

[[Page 65442]]

    To encourage the substance abuse treatment system to become more 
responsive and bridge the gap between what is needed by individual 
States, localities, and/or tribal organizations, and what is known 
about effective treatments to meet those needs, SAMHSA/CSAT intends to 
fund projects in three categories in FY 2005: (1) Treatment for 
selected native populations (American Indian/Alaska Native or Asian 
American/Pacific Islanders). To meet the disproportionate substance 
abuse treatment needs of certain native communities, this category 
specifically identifies American Indian/Alaska Natives (AI/AN) and 
Asian Americans/Pacific Islanders (AA/PI), including Native Hawaiians 
as native populations to receive expanded and/or enhanced treatment 
services under this program; (2) treatment focused on methamphetamine 
and other emerging drugs in adult, rural populations. This category 
allows funding for expanding and/or enhancing substance abuse treatment 
for adults in rural areas in need of treatment for use of 
methamphetamine and other emerging drugs, including abuse of 
prescription drugs such as Oxycodone, Hydrocodone and other opioid 
analgesics; (3) campus screening and brief intervention (SBI) to both 
combat underage drinking/substance use and promote innovative 
screening, brief intervention, and referral to treatment of college and 
university students with or at high risk of substance use disorders. 
This category is designed to assist colleges and universities to 
initiate services or expand existing campus based medical services to 
include identification and intervention with persons with hazardous 
drinking and/or substance use disorders within the context of student 
healthcare.
    Background: Information reported by SAMHSA underscores a 
significant disparity between the availability of treatment services 
for persons with alcohol and drug use disorders and the demand for such 
services. It is estimated, based on various studies, that there are 3-5 
million individuals who use and abuse alcohol and other drugs who have 
a significant impact on both the utilization of services and costs 
within the health care, juvenile justice, welfare, child welfare, and 
other publicly funded social support systems. However, currently, of 
these individuals, only 1.8 million can be served through the existing 
publicly funded treatment system. By providing needed treatment 
services, this program is intended to reduce the health and social 
costs of substance abuse and dependence to the public, and increase the 
safety of America's citizens by reducing substance abuse related crime 
and violence.

II. Award Information

    1. Estimated Funding Available/Number of Awards: It is expected 
that approximately $16 million will be available in FY 2005 to fund 
programs in three categories: (1) Treatment for selected native 
populations (American Indian/Alaska Native or Asian American/Pacific 
Islanders); (2) treatment focused on methamphetamine and other emerging 
drugs in adult, rural populations; and (3) campus screening and brief 
intervention to both combat underage drinking/substance use and promote 
innovative screening, brief intervention, and referral to treatment of 
college and university students with or at high risk of substance use 
disorders.
    SAMHSA expects that approximately $5.3 million will be available 
for awards in each category, and that approximately 11 awards will be 
made in each category. The maximum allowable award is $500,000 in total 
costs (direct and indirect) per year for up to 3 years. Proposed 
budgets cannot exceed the allowable amount in any year of the proposed 
project. Annual continuations will depend on the availability of funds, 
grantee progress in meeting program goals and objectives, and timely 
submission of required data and reports.
    This program is being announced prior to the annual appropriation 
for FY 2005 for SAMHSA's programs, with funding estimates based on the 
President's budget request for FY 2005. Applications are invited based 
on the assumption that sufficient funds will be appropriated for FY 
2005 to permit funding of a reasonable number of applications hereby 
solicited. All applicants are reminded, however, that we cannot 
guarantee that sufficient funds will be appropriated to permit SAMHSA 
to fund any applications.
    2. Funding Instrument: Grant.

III. Eligibility Information

    1. Eligible Applicants: Eligibility in Category 1 (AI/AN or AA/PI) 
and Category 2 (methamphetamine and other emerging drugs in adult, 
rural populations) is restricted to States and units of local 
government (e.g., cities, towns, counties) or Indian tribes and tribal 
organizations in recognition of their responsibility for, and interest 
in, providing for the needs of their citizens, and because the success 
of the program will depend upon their authority and ability to broadly 
coordinate a variety of resources. Funding is not designed to meet 
statewide treatment needs, but to meet the needs of individual 
communities in cities, towns, counties, and multi-county partnerships. 
Therefore, States that apply must identify a specific city, town, 
county or multi-county partnership that will be the targeted geographic 
area of need.
    Eligibility in Category 3 (Campus SBI) is restricted to domestic 
public and private, non-profit colleges and universities in recognition 
of their responsibility for, and interest in, providing for the needs 
of their enrolled students, and because the success of the program will 
depend upon their authority and ability to approve the planning, 
implementation, and operation of screening and treatment services that 
will be utilized by their students. Since the Campus SBI program is 
restricted to college and university students, it is essential that 
colleges and universities take the lead in the development of SBI 
projects that will administer screening, referral to treatment, and 
treatment and recovery for their students, and maintain partnerships 
with either college- or university-based providers or community-based 
organizations that may be providing such services to the college or 
university.
    These eligibility criteria supersede the criteria specified in 
Section III-1 of the SVC-05 PA.
    Applications for SAMHSA Services Grants must include evidence of 
experience and credentials as described in Section III-3 of the SVC-05 
PA. This 2-year experience requirement applies only to specialist 
substance abuse treatment providers participating in the project.
    2. Cost Sharing or Matching is not required.
    3. Other: Applicants must also meet certain application formatting 
and submission requirements, or the application will be screened out 
and will not be reviewed. These requirements are described in Section 
IV-2 below, as well as in the SVC-05 PA.

IV. Application and Submission Information

    1. Address to Request Application Package: Complete application 
kits may be obtained from: the National Clearinghouse for Alcohol and 
Drug Information (NCADI) at 1-800-729-6686. When requesting an 
application kit for this program, the applicant must specify the 
funding opportunity title (TCE Grants) and number (TI 05-003) for which 
detailed information is desired. All information necessary to

[[Page 65443]]

apply, including where to submit applications and application deadline 
instructions, is included in the application kit. Application 
materials, including the PHS 5161-1 application form, are also 
available electronically via SAMHSA's World Wide Web home page: http://www.samhsa.gov/Grants/generalinfo/useful_Info.aspx and the SVC-05 PA 
is available electronically at http://www.samhsa.gov/grants/standard/Services/index.aspx.
    When submitting an application, applicants must identify one 
category under which they are applying. Therefore, when submitting an 
application, be sure to type ``TI 05-003'' and either: TCE-AI/AN or AA/
PI; TCE-Meth; or TCE-Campus SBI (depending on the funding category 
under which you are applying) in Item Number 10 on the face page of the 
application form. Also, SAMHSA applicants are required to provide a 
DUNS Number on the face page of the application. To obtain a DUNS 
Number, access the Dun and Bradstreet Web site at http://www.dunandbradstreet.com or call 1-866-705-5711. Because grantees in 
the TCE Grants program may use grant funds to provide direct substance 
abuse services, applicants are required to complete the Assurance of 
Compliance with SAMHSA Charitable Choice Statutes and Regulations, Form 
SMA 170. This form will be posted on SAMHSA's Web site with the NOFA 
and provided in the application kits available at NCADI.
    2. Content and Form of Application Submission: Information 
including required documents, required application components, and 
application formatting requirements is available in the SVC-05 PA in 
Section IV-2.

Checklist for Formatting Requirements and Screenout Criteria for SAMHSA 
Grant Applications

    SAMHSA's goal is to review all applications submitted for grant 
funding. However, this goal must be balanced against SAMHSA's 
obligation to ensure equitable treatment of applications. For this 
reason, SAMHSA has established certain formatting requirements for its 
applications. If you do not adhere to these requirements, your 
application will be screened out and returned to you without review.
    [cir] Use the PHS 5161-1 application.
    [cir] Applications must be received by the application deadline or 
have proof of timely submission, as detailed in Section IV-3 of the 
SVC-05 PA.
    [cir] Information provided must be sufficient for review.
    [cir] Text must be legible. (For Project Narratives submitted 
electronically in Microsoft Word, see separate requirements below under 
``Guidance for Electronic Submission of Applications.'')
    [cir] Type size in the Project Narrative cannot exceed an average 
of 15 characters per inch, as measured on the physical page. (Type size 
in charts, tables, graphs, and footnotes will not be considered in 
determining compliance.)
    [cir] Text in the Project Narrative cannot exceed 6 lines per 
vertical inch.
    [cir] Paper must be white paper and 8.5 inches by 11.0 inches in 
size.
    [cir] To ensure equity among applications, the amount of space 
allowed for the Project Narrative cannot be exceeded. (For Project 
Narratives submitted electronically in Microsoft Word, see separate 
requirements below under ``Guidance for Electronic Submission of 
Applications.'')
     Applications would meet this requirement by using all 
margins (left, right, top, bottom) of at least one inch each, and 
adhering to the page limit for the Project Narrative stated in the SVC-
05 PA.
     Should an application not conform to these margin or page 
limits, SAMHSA will use the following method to determine compliance: 
The total area of the Project Narrative (excluding margins, but 
including charts, tables, graphs and footnotes) cannot exceed 58.5 
square inches multiplied by the page limit. This number represents the 
full page less margins, multiplied by the total number of allowed 
pages.
     Space will be measured on the physical page. Space left 
blank within the Project Narrative (excluding margins) is considered 
part of the Project Narrative, in determining compliance.
    To facilitate review of your application, follow these additional 
guidelines. Failure to adhere to the following guidelines will not, in 
itself, result in your application being screened out and returned 
without review. However, the information provided in your application 
must be sufficient for review. Following these guidelines will help 
ensure your application is complete, and will help reviewers to 
consider your application.
    [cir] The 10 application components required for SAMHSA 
applications should be included. These are:
     Face Page (Standard Form 424, which is in PHS 5161-1).

submission is voluntary. No review points will be added or deducted, 
regardless of

[[Page 65444]]

whether you use the electronic or paper format.
    To submit an application electronically, you must use the http://
www.Grants.gov apply site. You will be able to download a copy of the 
application package from http://www.Grants.gov, complete it off-line, 
and then upload and submit the application via the Grants.gov site. E-
mail submissions will not be accepted.
    You must search the Grants.gov site for the downloadable 
application package, by the Catalogue of Federal Domestic Assistance 
(CFDA) number. You can find the CFDA number on the first page of the 
funding announcement.
    You must follow the instructions in the User Guide available at: 
http://www.Grants.gov apply site, on the Customer Support tab. In

Support Center is open from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m. Eastern Time, Monday 
through Friday.
    If this is the first time you have submitted an application through 
Grants.gov, you must complete four separate registration processes 
before you can submit your application. Allow at least two weeks (10 
business days) for these registration processes, prior to submitting 
your application. The processes are: DUNS Number registration, Central 
Contractor Registry (CCR) registration, Credential Provider 
registration, and Grants.gov registration.
    It is strongly recommended that you submit your grant application 
using Microsoft Office products (e.g., Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel, 
etc.). If you do not have access to Microsoft Office products, you may 
submit a PDF file. Directions for creating PDF files can be found on 
the Grants.gov Web site. Use of file formats other than Microsoft 
Office or PDF may result in your file being unreadable by our staff.
    The Project Narrative must be a separate document in the electronic 
submission. Formatting requirements for SAMHSA grant applications are 
described above, and in section IV-2.3 and appendix A of the standard 
grant announcement. These requirements also apply to applications 
submitted electronically, with the following exceptions only for 
Project Narratives submitted electronically in Microsoft Word. These 
requirements help to ensure the accurate transmission and equitable 
treatment of applications.
     Text legibility: Use a font of Times New Roman 12, line 
spacing of single space, and all margins (left, right, top, bottom) of 
one inch each. Adhering to these standards will help to ensure the 
accurate transmission of your document. If the type size in the Project 
Narrative of an electronic submission exceeds 15 characters per inch, 
or the text exceeds 6 lines per vertical inch, SAMHSA will reformat the 
document to Times New Roman 12, with line spacing of single space. 
Please note that this may alter the formatting of your document, 
especially for charts, tables, graphs, and footnotes.
     Amount of space allowed for project narrative: The Project 
Narrative for an electronic submission may not exceed 15,450 words. Any 
part of the Project Narrative in excess of the word limit will not be 
submitted to review. To determine the number of words in your Project 
Narrative document in Microsoft Word, select file/properties/
statistics.
    Applicants are strongly encouraged to submit their applications to 
Grants.gov early enough to resolve any unanticipated difficulties prior 
to the deadline. You may also submit a back-up paper submission of your 
application. Any such paper submission must be received in accordance 
with the requirements for timely submission detailed in Section IV-3 of 
the grant announcement. The paper submission must be clearly marked: 
``Back-up for electronic submission.'' The paper submission must 
conform with all requirements for non-electronic submissions. If both 
electronic and back-up paper submissions are received by the deadline, 
the electronic version will be considered the official submission.
    After you electronically submit your application, you will receive 
an automatic acknowledgement from Grants.gov that contains a Grants.gov 
tracking number. It is important that you retain this number.
    The Grants.gov Web site does not accept electronic signatures at 
this time. Therefore, you must submit a signed paper original of the 
face page (SF 424), the assurances (SF 424B), and the certifications, 
and hard copy of any other required documentation that cannot be 
submitted electronically. You must reference the Grants.gov tracking 
number for your application, on these documents with original 
signatures, and send the documents to the following address. The 
documents must be received at the following address within 5 business 
days of your electronic submission. Delays in receipt of these

    State and local governments and Indian tribal government applicants 
are not subject to the Public Health System Reporting Requirements; 
therefore, only applicants for Category 3--Campus SBI are required to 
follow the instructions for completing the Public Health System Impact 
Statement (PHSIS) contained in the SVC-05 PA. In addition, only 
Category 3--Campus SBI applicants have to include an Appendix 4, Letter 
to the SSA, as required in the SVC-05 PA.
    5. Funding Restrictions: Information concerning funding 
restrictions is available in the SVC-05 PA in Section IV-5.

V. Application Review Information

    1. Evaluation Criteria: Applications will be reviewed against the 
Evaluation Criteria and requirements for the Project Narrative 
specified in the SVC-05 PA. The following information describes 
exceptions or limitations to the SVC-05 PA and provides special 
requirements that pertain only to Targeted Capacity Expansion Grants. 
Applicants must adhere to the following requirements in their 
applications, in addition to the requirements specified in the SVC-05 
PA.
    1.1 In ``Section A, Statement of Need,'' Category 3 (Campus SBI) 
applicants do not have to address the 3rd bullet requiring non-tribal

[[Page 65445]]

applicants to show that identified needs are consistent with priorities 
of the State or county that has primary responsibility for the service 
delivery system. Therefore, Category 3 applicants do not have to 
include a copy of the State or County Strategic Plan as Appendix 5 of 
their application.
    1.2 In ``Section C, Proposed Implementation Approach,'' Category 3 
(Campus SBI) applicants must, in addition to the requirements specified 
in the SVC-05 PA, address the following requirements that are added as 
an additional bullet in the Evaluation Criteria section of the SVC-05 
PA:
    Identify the geographic location of the proposed screening and 
brief intervention provider in relation to the targeted college/
university campus. If the provider is located off campus, address how 
students will gain access to the service provider. Identify where 
subsequent services (i.e., treatment) will be provided.
    1.3 In ``Section E, Evaluation and Data,'' applicants must, in 
addition to the requirements specified in the SVC-05 PA, address the 
following requirements that are added to the end of the 6th bullet in 
the Evaluation Criteria section of the SVC-05 PA:
    Applicants must state whether or not the per-person costs are 
within the following reasonable ranges by treatment modality. 
Applicants must also discuss the reasonableness of the per person 
costs. If proposed costs exceed reasonable ranges, a detailed 
justification must be provided.
    Program costs. The following are considered reasonable ranges by 
treatment modality:
    Residential: $3,000 to $10,000.
    Outpatient (Non-Methadone): $1,000 to $5,000.
    Outpatient (Methadone): $1,500 to $8,000.
    Intensive Outpatient: $1,000 to $7,500.
    Screen/Brief Intervention/Brief Treatment/Outreach/Pretreatment
    Services: $200 to $1,200.
    Drug Court Programs (regardless of client treatment modality): 
$3,000 to $5,000.
    SAMHSA/CSAT computes per person costs as follows. The total support 
requested for the life of the project is multiplied by .8 (.2 will be 
the allowance for GPRA reporting requirements). The resulting amount is 
then divided by the number of persons the applicant proposes to serve 
over the life of the project.
    The outreach and pretreatment services cost band only applies to 
outreach and pretreatment programs that do not also offer treatment 
services but operate within a network of substance abuse treatment 
facilities. Treatment programs that add outreach and pretreatment 
services to a treatment modality or modalities are expected to fall 
within the cost band for that treatment modality.
    1.4 Performance Measurement: All SAMHSA grantees are required to 
collect and report certain data, so that SAMHSA can meet its 
obligations under the Government Performance and Results Act (GPRA). 
Grantees of the Targeted Capacity Expansion Grants program will be 
required to report performance in several areas. Applicants must 
document their ability to collect and report the required data in 
``Section E: Evaluation and Data'' of their applications.
    All Targeted Capacity Expansion grant applicants must document 
their ability to collect and report data using the Targeted Capacity 
Expansion Client Level GPRA tool that can be found at http://www.csat-gpra.samhsa.gov (click on ``Data Collection Tools/Instruments''), along 
with instructions for completing it. Hard copies are available in the 
application kits distributed by SAMHSA's National Clearinghouse for 
Alcohol and Drug Information (NCADI). GPRA data must be collected at 
baseline (i.e., the client's entry into the project), 6 months after 
the baseline, and 12 months after the baseline. Projects serving 
adolescents also must collect 3 month post-baseline data to capture the 
nuances of change particular to this population. GPRA data must be 
entered into the GPRA Web system within 7 business days of the forms 
being completed. In addition, 80% of the participants must be followed 
up on. GPRA data are to be collected and then entered into CSAT's GPRA 
Data Entry and Reporting System (http://www.csat-gpra.samhsa.gov). 
Training and technical assistance on data collecting, tracking, and 
follow-up, as well as data entry, will be provided by CSAT.
    2. Review and Selection Process: Information about the review and 
selection process is available in the SVC-05 PA in Section V-2.

VI. Award Administration Information

    Award administration information, including information about award 
notices, administration requirements and reporting requirements, is 
included in the SVC-05 PA in Section VI. SAMHSA's standard terms and 
conditions are available at http://www.samhsa.gov/grants/generalinfo/
useful--info.aspx.
    You must plan to send a minimum of three persons (Authorized 
Grantee, Project Director if different, Evaluator) to at least two 
joint grantee meetings each year instead of the requirement for two 
persons to one joint grantee meeting each year as stated in the SVC-05 
PA and should budget accordingly.
    TCE grantees are required to provide progress reports every six 
months instead of annual progress reports required by the SVC-05 PA. 
The last report will be a final, cumulative report.
