Grant Description: The purpose of PPW/RWC grants is to expand the availability of comprehensive, high quality residential substance abuse treatment services for low-income (as defined by Federal poverty definitions) women, age 18 and over, who are pregnant, postpartum (the period after childbirth up to12 months), or other parenting women, and their minor children, age 17 and under, who have limited access to quality health services. SAMHSA/CSAT has identified traditionally underserved populations, especially racial and ethnic minority women, as important subpopulations. For purposes of this grant announcement, residential treatment programs are programs that offer organized substance abuse treatment services that feature a planned regimen of care in a safe 24-hour residential setting with staff supervision. If treatment services are provided off-site, they must be well coordinated and integrated to ensure that specific aspects of the individual treatment plan and services for the children can be addressed in both facilities. Such services must be coupled with access to primary health, mental health and social services for pregnant, postpartum, and other parenting women who suffer from alcohol and drug use problems, and for their minor children impacted by the perinatal and environmental effects of maternal substance use and abuse. These systems of care must be designed to improve the overall treatment outcomes for the woman, her children, and the family unit as a whole. For those minor children who do not reside in the treatment facility, it is important that they are actively engaged in the treatment process with their mothers. Applicants are required to: 1) identify state-of-the art clinical and service delivery approaches that are gender-specific and culturally appropriate for women and their minor children; and 2) utilize effective strategies for outreach, engagement, and retention of women in treatment. Projects must expand or create additional treatment services that contribute to a comprehensive continuum of care. To accomplish a comprehensive service system, SAMHSA/CSAT expects that applicant organizations will need to partner with other organizations. As evidence of these partnerships, SAMHSA/CSAT requires applicants to have written memoranda of understanding/agreement (MOU/MOA) signed by the authorizing official in all partnership agencies and organizations that are critical to the success of the project. These partnership agencies and organizations may include local public housing authorities (for permanent housing for families), child welfare, health, mental health, and child serving agencies, family court, criminal justice, employment and education programs, and other public and private partners.
