Fiscal Year (FY) 2011 Funding Opportunity



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



ACTION: Notice of intent to award a Single Source supplement to the 

National Center for Child Traumatic Stress.



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



SUMMARY: This notice is to inform the public that the Substance Abuse 

and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) intends to award 

approximately $1,000,000 (total costs) for up to one year to the 

National Center for Child Traumatic Stress.

    This is not a formal request for applications. Supplement will be 

provided only to National Center for Child Traumatic Stress based on 

the receipt of a satisfactory application that is approved by an 

independent review group.

    Funding Opportunity Title: SM-11-010.



    Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance (CFDA) Number: 93.243.



    Authority:  Section 582 of the Public Health Service Act, as 

amended.



    Justification: Only an application from National Center for Child 

Traumatic Stress will be considered for funding under this 

announcement. The National Center for Child Traumatic Stress is the 

sole entity providing coordination, expertise, training and technical 

assistance to the National Child Traumatic Stress Network (NCTSN). It 

is through this Network that the National Center will work to further 

develop, train, and evaluate screening, assessment and intervention 

activities and programs that are adapted to fit child welfare and 

juvenile justice system operation.

    The purpose of this 1-year supplement is to promote and facilitate 

the development of trauma-informed child welfare and juvenile justice 

service systems. This work will be done in partnership with child 

welfare and juvenile justice agencies to improve the response of these 

agencies for children and adolescents in their systems that have 

experienced significant traumas.

    The NCCTS will support Network efforts to further develop, train, 

and evaluate screening, assessment and intervention activities and 

programs that are adapted to fit child welfare and juvenile justice 

system operations. Activities supported by this supplement will build 

on prior Network activities with grantees who are already engaged in 

developing trauma-informed awareness and practices in the child welfare 

and juvenile justice systems.
