AGENCY: Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, HHS.
ACTION: Notice of intent to award a Single Source supplement to the
National Center for Child Traumatic Stress.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This notice is to inform the public that the Substance Abuse
and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) intends to award
approximately $1,000,000 (total costs) for up to one year to the
National Center for Child Traumatic Stress.
This is not a formal request for applications. Supplement will be
provided only to National Center for Child Traumatic Stress based on
the receipt of a satisfactory application that is approved by an
independent review group.
Funding Opportunity Title: SM-11-010.
Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance (CFDA) Number: 93.243.
Authority: Section 582 of the Public Health Service Act, as
amended.
Justification: Only an application from National Center for Child
Traumatic Stress will be considered for funding under this
announcement. The National Center for Child Traumatic Stress is the
sole entity providing coordination, expertise, training and technical
assistance to the National Child Traumatic Stress Network (NCTSN). It
is through this Network that the National Center will work to further
develop, train, and evaluate screening, assessment and intervention
activities and programs that are adapted to fit child welfare and
juvenile justice system operation.
The purpose of this 1-year supplement is to promote and facilitate
the development of trauma-informed child welfare and juvenile justice
service systems. This work will be done in partnership with child
welfare and juvenile justice agencies to improve the response of these
agencies for children and adolescents in their systems that have
experienced significant traumas.
The NCCTS will support Network efforts to further develop, train,
and evaluate screening, assessment and intervention activities and
programs that are adapted to fit child welfare and juvenile justice
system operations. Activities supported by this supplement will build
on prior Network activities with grantees who are already engaged in
developing trauma-informed awareness and practices in the child welfare
and juvenile justice systems.
