Opportunity Information: Apply for SM 25 014

The National Women's Mental Health and Substance Use Technical Assistance Center (Funding Opportunity Number SM 25 014) is a SAMHSA discretionary grant designed to strengthen the national capacity of healthcare providers who serve women and girls, especially those who have mental health conditions, substance use disorders, or are at heightened risk for them. The program is built around the idea that women often interact with multiple parts of the healthcare system, so it focuses on supporting providers across several core specialties that commonly touch women's lives: mental health and substance use treatment, obstetrics and gynecology, pediatrics, emergency departments, crisis services, and primary care. A major emphasis is ensuring providers can better recognize, respond to, and coordinate care for women whose behavioral health needs were intensified or made more complex by the COVID-19 public health emergency.

This opportunity will fund a single award (Expected Awards: 1) under a Cooperative Agreement, which typically means the federal agency will have an active partnership role in shaping and overseeing the work rather than simply issuing funds and receiving reports. The award ceiling is $2,500,000, and the program falls under the Health funding activity category with CFDA number 93.243. The overall intent is not just direct service delivery in one location, but broad technical assistance (TA) that can raise the quality and consistency of care nationwide. In practice, this kind of center usually provides training, consultation, toolkits, implementation supports, and guidance to help healthcare systems and frontline providers adopt evidence-informed approaches, improve screening and referral pathways, integrate behavioral health into medical settings, and address common barriers that women face when trying to access mental health and substance use care.

SAMHSA highlights a wide range of eligible applicants to ensure the TA center can be anchored in organizations with strong community and system connections. Eligible applicants include state, local, tribal, and territorial governments; tribal organizations; nonprofit community-based entities; and primary care and behavioral health organizations. The framing also signals a focus on real-world, community-anchored needs, specifically those worsened by the COVID-19 emergency, such as increases in anxiety, depression, trauma-related symptoms, substance use, overdose risk, and disruptions to care, as well as compounding stressors like caregiving burdens, economic instability, and isolation. Because the TA is meant to support multiple settings (from OB/GYN clinics to crisis services), the center would be expected to help providers coordinate across systems so women do not fall through gaps when moving between medical care, behavioral health care, emergency care, and community supports.

Key logistics include the opportunity being created on 2024-12-20 with an original closing date of 2025-02-18. In summary, this grant funds a national technical assistance hub intended to improve how the healthcare workforce identifies and responds to women's mental health and substance use needs across the full continuum of care, with explicit attention to populations and communities disproportionately impacted during and after the COVID-19 period.
