Opportunity Information: Apply for HRSA 24 016
The Opioid-Impacted Family Support Program (HRSA-24-016) is a discretionary grant opportunity from the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) focused on strengthening the behavioral health workforce that supports families affected by opioid use disorder (OUD) and other substance use disorders (SUD). The central goal is to fund training programs that build the knowledge, practical skills, and real-world readiness of paraprofessionals, with an emphasis on growing the pipeline of peer support specialists and other behavioral health-related paraprofessionals. These trainees are expected to work as part of integrated, interprofessional care teams, meaning they will collaborate across disciplines to deliver coordinated services rather than working in isolation.
A key priority within the program is support for children and adolescents in high-need, high-demand communities. The opportunity highlights youth who have experienced trauma and are at increased risk for mental health disorders, reflecting an intent to address the downstream impacts of family and community substance use on child well-being. In practice, this means applicants should be prepared to show how their training approach equips paraprofessionals to engage families, respond to trauma-related needs, and connect youth to appropriate, coordinated behavioral health supports within a team-based care model.
Eligibility is limited in an important way: HRSA will only accept applications from state-licensed mental health nonprofit organizations or state-licensed mental health for-profit organizations. Eligible entities include organizations licensed or certified by a state or an authorized political subdivision to provide behavioral health training. Academic institutions such as universities, community colleges, and technical schools may be included as eligible applicants when they meet the licensing expectations and are accredited by a nationally recognized accrediting agency recognized by the U.S. Department of Education. In addition, domestic community-based organizations, public entities, tribes, and tribal organizations may apply if they meet the stated eligibility and licensing requirements. Individuals are explicitly not eligible to apply.
The funding instrument is a grant under the health funding activity category (CFDA 93.732). The listed applicant types include various levels of government (state, county, city or township, special district), independent school districts, public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, private institutions of higher education, federally recognized tribal governments, tribal organizations, nonprofits with or without 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education in those categories), for-profit organizations other than small businesses, small businesses, and other entities. While that broad list appears in the general eligibility field, the narrative eligibility restriction still controls: applicants must be state-licensed mental health organizations (nonprofit or for-profit), with academic institutions and other entities eligible when they satisfy the licensing/certification and accreditation conditions described.
The opportunity was created on March 7, 2024, with an original application closing date of May 6, 2024. HRSA anticipated making about 28 awards, with an award ceiling of $600,000 per award.Apply for HRSA 24 016
