    Summary

    The purpose of this program is to increase access to, and improve the quality of community mental and substance use disorder treatment services through the expansion of CCBHCs. CCBHCs provide person- and family-centered integrated services. The CCBHC Expansion grant program must provide access to services including 24/7 crisis intervention services for individuals with serious mental illness (SMI) or substance use disorders (SUD), including opioid use disorders; children and adolescents with serious emotional disturbance (SED); and individuals with co-occurring mental and substance disorders (COD). SAMHSA expects that this program will provide comprehensive 24/7 access to community-based mental and substance use disorder services; treatment of co-occurring disorders; and physical healthcare in one single location.


    CCBHCs provide a comprehensive collection of services that create access, stabilize people in crisis, and provide the needed treatment and recovery support services for those with the most serious and complex mental and substance use disorders. CCBHCs integrate services to ensure a comprehensive approach to healthcare. CCBHCs provide services to any individual, regardless of their ability to pay or their place of residence.


    States were funded to develop CCBHCs in FY2016 through Planning Grants for Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinics (SM-16-001). This CCBHC expansion announcement creates opportunities to support the expansion of the CCBHC model in those states which participated in the 2016 Planning Grant program. This funding opportunity is available to eligible organizations (see Eligibility Information: III-1) across the country; however, priority will be given to applicants in states which were awarded a 2016 Planning Grant. All organizations who meet eligibility criteria are encouraged to apply.
