Opportunity Information: Apply for TI 18 008
The SAMHSA Treatment Drug Courts grant opportunity (FY 2018), administered by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) through its Center for Substance Abuse Treatment (CSAT), is a discretionary federal grant designed to expand substance use disorder (SUD) treatment capacity within existing adult problem-solving court settings. Specifically, it supports Adult Treatment Drug Courts (ATDCs) and Adult Tribal Healing to Wellness Courts that already operate using the treatment drug court model. The overall aim is to strengthen and broaden the treatment services available to justice-involved adults by embedding effective clinical care and recovery supports into the court-supervised framework, with the intent of reducing repeat criminal behavior linked to alcohol and drug use and lowering reliance on incarceration and other punitive outcomes.
A central expectation of the program is that funded recipients deliver a coordinated, multi-system approach that intentionally combines the court's authority and accountability mechanisms with evidence-based SUD treatment. Rather than functioning as a standalone treatment expansion, the grant emphasizes collaboration across systems that typically include the court, community supervision, treatment providers, and other local or tribal partners. Applicants are expected to show how they will align these components into a coherent pathway that supports identification of need, rapid connection to care, ongoing monitoring, and sustained recovery, while still leveraging the structured oversight inherent in treatment court models.
The funding is meant to increase both access and availability of services for a larger number of participants. Applicants are encouraged to propose strategies that expand the number of individuals served and address gaps in the continuum of care for people in these courts who require SUD treatment and, where relevant, services for co-occurring substance use and mental disorders. The program description highlights specific service components the grant can support, including screening and assessment, case management, recovery support services, and program coordination, alongside direct treatment services. A key requirement is that grant funds must be used to serve individuals who are diagnosed with a substance use disorder as their primary condition, meaning the focus of funded activities must remain centered on SUD treatment rather than other primary diagnoses.
From an administrative and funding standpoint, this opportunity is listed as SAMHSA Treatment Drug Courts under Funding Opportunity Number TI 18 008 and CFDA 93.243, categorized under health-related activities. The award ceiling is $400,000, with an anticipated total of 38 awards. SAMHSA indicates it will use discretion when distributing awards, weighing factors such as whether applications are for ATDCs or Adult Tribal Healing to Wellness Courts, the volume of applications received for each model type, and geographic distribution. The opportunity was created on December 22, 2017, and the original application deadline was February 21, 2018. Eligibility is described broadly as "Others" with further clarification referenced in the opportunity's additional eligibility information, signaling that applicants need to consult the full eligibility section to confirm whether their organization or governing entity qualifies.Apply for TI 18 008
