Grants to Expand Substance Abuse Treatment in Targeted Areas of Need-Technology Assisted Care
Eligible applicants are domestic public and private nonprofit entities. For example, State and local governments, federally recognized American Indian/Alaska Native Tribes and tribal organizations, urban Indian organizations, public or private universities and colleges; and community- and faith-based organizations may apply.
The purpose of this program is to enhance and/or expand the capacity of substance abuse treatment providers to serve clients who have been underserved because of lack of access to treatment in their immediate community due to transportation concerns, an inadequate number of substance abuse treatment providers in their community, and/or financial constraints, through the use of therapeutic techniques that involve innovative, creative and cost-effective advanced technology. This approach may include the use of various technological modalities such as Internet, tele-behavioral health, chatlines, videocams, etc.
TCE TAC grantees are expected to address the following two strategic initiatives:
- Behavioral Health Workforce
- Military Families
