Opportunity Information: Apply for SM 20 008
The National Training and Technical Assistance Center for Child, Youth, and Family Mental Health (Funding Opportunity Number SM-20-008) is a discretionary federal grant opportunity offered by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services through the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), specifically its Center for Mental Health Services (CMHS). The grant is part of SAMHSA's broader Children’s Mental Health Initiative and is designed to fund a single national-level center that can strengthen and spread effective mental health supports for children, youth, and young adults up to age 21, especially those living with Serious Emotional Disturbances (SED) and Serious Mental Illness (SMI), along with their families.
At its core, the program focuses on building the field’s capacity through training and technical assistance (often referred to as TTA). The goal is not simply to provide services directly, but to help systems, programs, and practitioners improve how they deliver services by increasing access to care, improving the quality and effectiveness of care, and accelerating the dissemination and adoption of evidence-based mental health practices. A major emphasis is also placed on coordination, meaning the center is expected to help communities and service systems work better across agencies and sectors so that children and families experience care that is more connected, consistent, and easier to navigate.
Funding is structured as a grant (not a contract), under the Health funding activity category, with CFDA Number 93.243. SAMHSA anticipated making one award under this opportunity, with an award ceiling of $3,000,000. The opportunity was created on December 6, 2019, and the original application closing date was February 4, 2020. Eligibility is listed broadly as "Others," with the expectation that applicants would need to review the additional eligibility language in the full announcement to confirm whether their organization type qualifies.
Overall, this opportunity is essentially an investment in national infrastructure for improving child, youth, and family mental health systems. By funding one centralized TTA center, SAMHSA aimed to support widespread uptake of proven practices, strengthen service coordination, and help communities better serve young people with serious mental health needs and their families through more effective, accessible, and evidence-informed approaches.Apply for SM 20 008
