Supplemental Awards for Addiction Training Centers Grantees

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

ACTION: Availability of supplemental funds for currently funded 
grantees in the Center for Substance Abuse Treatment (CSAT) addiction 
training centers cooperative agreement program.

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

SUMMARY: This notice is to inform the public that CSAT is making 
available approximately $1.7 million for supplemental awards in fiscal 
year 1995 to existing grantees in its Addiction Training Centers (ATCs) 
program. Competition is being limited to the eleven currently funded 
ATCs because their unique training infrastructure is well established 
and will permit the additional activities described below to 
[[Page 14958]] be implemented quickly and within the available funding. 
Supplemental awards will be made based on the receipt of satisfactory 
applications that are approved by a peer review group and the CSAT 
National Advisory Council.
    Approximately $550,000 is available for up to four supplemental 
awards to ATCs for geographic expansion to broaden the geographic areas 
covered by existing ATCs. Applications are invited for the expansion of 
an ATC into a minimum of one additional contiguous State to provide 
addictions training and financial support for addiction counselors and 
a minimum of one other health or allied health care discipline.
    Approximately $1.2 million is available for up to four supplemental 
awards to ATCs for criminal justice training. Applications are invited 
for the delivery of cross-training for probation, parole, corrections 
and public health/mental health/addictions treatment personnel. 
Applicants must agree to provide training for a region of two or more 
contiguous States.

    Authority: Supplemental awards will be made under authority of 
Section 512(a) of the Public Health Service Act, as amended (42 USC 
290bb-5).

    The Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance (CFDA) number for 
this program is 93.131.
