SAMHSA Awards Applications Due Feb. 27

  • Jan 02, 2009

The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration is asking for applications by Feb. 27 for its 2009 Science and Service Awards, which recognize community-based organizations successful at implementing evidence-based mental health and substance abuse interventions. Awards will be made in five categories: substance abuse prevention, treatment of substance abuse and recovery support services, mental health promotion, treatment of mental illness and recovery support services, and co-occurring disorders.

Public- and private-sector organizations are eligible to compete for these non-monetary awards, but developers of an evidence-based intervention or their research collaborators, previous award winners, and federal agencies are not. Applications will be rated using these four criteria: community need, sustainability, accurate implementation, and results.

Complete information is available at www.samhsa.gov/scienceandservice; click on "Application Materials for 2009 Awards." Applications must be e-mailed by Feb. 27 to Michelle Duda, Science and Service Awards coordinator, at [email protected] or postmarked by midnight Feb. 27 and mailed to Dean Fixsen, Ph.D., FPG Child Development Institute, CB #8040 UNC Campus, Chapel Hill, NC 27599-8040.
