Frequently Asked Questions
What grants support substance abuse rehabilitation centers?
SAMHSA provides grants for substance abuse treatment facilities through Block Grants to states and specific grants for opioid treatment, medication-assisted treatment, and residential treatment programs. HRSA and state substance abuse agencies also fund treatment facility operations and expansion.
Are there grants for starting a new rehabilitation center?
Yes, though limited. SAMHSA's State Targeted Response (STR) grants have funded new treatment programs. Foundation grants and state-level treatment expansion grants may support new rehabilitation facilities. Most grants prefer expanding existing centers to ensure sustainability and infrastructure.
What about grants for residential mental health treatment?
SAMHSA, NIMH, HRSA, and state mental health agencies fund residential mental health treatment facilities. Some grants specifically support psychiatric residential treatment programs (PRTPs), crisis residential programs, and behavioral health rehabilitation facilities serving severely mentally ill populations.
Can grants help with medication-assisted treatment (MAT) programs?
Yes. SAMHSA specifically funds medication-assisted treatment expansion, particularly for opioid use disorder. Grants support facility operations, provider training, patient medications, and wraparound services. Many states prioritize MAT as part of opioid epidemic response funding.
What is SAMHSA Block Grant funding for rehabilitation centers?
SAMHSA's Substance Abuse Prevention and Treatment (SAPT) Block Grants are distributed to states for substance abuse treatment, including rehabilitation centers. Contact your state substance abuse authority to learn about Block Grant funding opportunities for treatment facilities.
Are there grants for rehabilitation center staffing and training?
