SAMHSA GRANTS FOR SINGLE SOURCE PROJECTS National Outcome Measures (NOMs) Collaborative Support: The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, Center for Substance Abuse Treatment is announcing the availability of FY 2008 funds for a single source award to the National Association of State Alcohol and Drug Abuse Directors (NASADAD) for the National Outcome Measures (NOMs) Collaborative Support Initiative Grant. The purpose of this program is to facilitate collaborative activities between SAMHSA and the States to assist SAMHSA in its development and implementation of the NOMs. NASADADs membership is composed of the State substance abuse authorities (SSAs). SSAs are the recipients of SAMHSAs Substance Abuse Prevention and Treatment (SAPT) Block Grant funds. Grant activities will focus on areas of mutual interest and will help support the States ability to respond to changes brought about by the transition of management of the SAPT Block Grant to a performance and outcomes focus based upon the NOMs and other information. These collaborative activities will assist SAMHSA in its development, implementation and management of the SAPT Block Grant Program, and will assist States in the development and implementation of their transition plans and to respond to the changes brought about by the transition. The NOMs Collaborative Support Initiative Grant is one of SAMHSAs grant programs intended to support SAMHSAs service grants and the SAPT Block Grant Program. SAMHSAs services grants and its SAPT Block Grant Program are designed to address gaps in substance abuse and mental health prevention and treatment services and/or to increase the ability of States, units of local government, American Indian/Alaska Native tribes and tribal organizations, and community- and faith-based organizations to help specific populations or geographic areas with serious, substance abuse problems. Activities under this grant should begin by the 2nd month of the project at the latest. The National Outcome Measures (NOMs) Collaborative Support Initiative Grant is authorized under the authority of Section 1935 of the Public Health Service Act, as amended. This announcement addresses Healthy People 2010 focus area 26 (Substance Abuse).
