Substance Abuse Treatment Conference Grants

AGENCY: Center for Substance Abuse Treatment, Substance Abuse and 
Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), HHS.

ACTION: Clarification notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: Public notice was given in the Federal Register on July 25, 
1994, Volume 59, No. 141, pages 37773-37775, that the Center for 
Substance Abuse Treatment is soliciting applications for domestic 
conferences for the purpose of coordinating, exchanging and 
disseminating information in furtherance of its mission to ensure the 
availability of effective treatment and recovery services for 
individuals who suffer from problems related to alcohol and other drugs 
(AOD) of abuse.
    On page 37773, under the Program Description section, it states 
that ``CSAT will provide support for up to fifty percent (to a maximum 
of $50,000) of the total costs of planned meetings and conferences 
sponsored by new or ongoing constituent organizations or coalitions in 
their efforts to provide treatment for drugs of abuse.''
    This funding guideline should have translated into one additional 
criterion under Award Decision Criteria on page 37775, to read as 
follows: ``7. A budget fully documenting that non-CSAT support equals 
at least 50% of the total cost of the conference.''
    All applications received after the publication of this 
clarification notice will be returned to the applicant if the 
application does not provide a budget that fully documents that non-
CSAT support equals at least 50% of the total cost of the conference.
    All future guidance provided to potential applicants who request 
grant application kits will contain this additional award criterion.

    Dated: February 12, 1995.
Richard Kopanda,
Acting Executive Officer, SAMHSA.
