SUD-MH Recipients: Have You Added a FTE Yet?
If you received FY 2018 Expanding Access to Quality Substance Use Disorder and Mental Health Services (SUD-MH) supplemental funding, please note these important reminders:

  • Staffing Requirement: You must add at least 1.0 FTE direct hire(s) and/or contracted personnel who will support SUD and/or mental health services within eight months of award—by Saturday, May 18. Failure to meet this requirement may impact Year 2 funding.

  • Minor Alteration and Renovation (A/R) Projects: You may not begin any minor A/R activities supported with SUD-MH funding without receiving prior approval from HRSA. You must submit a “Capital Update” via EHBs, and meet all additional conditions when applicable.

You should develop appropriate contingencies to ensure that delays in receiving HRSA approval of your minor A/R activities do not impact your ability to meet the staffing requirement and patient projections on time. Find information about the documentation you are required to submit on the SUD-MH TA website.

If you missed the recent SUD-MH Progress Reporting TA office hours, the recording is now available. We provided updates and reminders for the next report submission and answered questions about reporting requirements.
