Opportunity Information: Apply for TI 24 006
The First Responders - Comprehensive Addiction and Recovery Act grant (Funding Opportunity Number: TI 24 006) is a discretionary federal grant program administered by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) under CFDA 93.243. It is designed to strengthen community overdose response by equipping first responders and other key community partners with the tools, training, and systems needed to prevent overdose deaths and connect people to ongoing care after an overdose event.
At the center of the opportunity is expanding the capacity to train people who are likely to encounter overdoses and to support the administration and distribution of naloxone and other FDA-approved overdose reversal medications or devices. The program emphasizes practical readiness: making sure personnel not only have access to reversal agents, but also have clear guidance on when and how to use them, how to maintain supplies, and how to integrate overdose response into day-to-day operations in the field. While first responders are a primary focus, the language also makes room for other community sectors that play a role in overdose response and prevention, reflecting the reality that overdoses are encountered across many settings.
A major expectation of funded projects is that overdose reversal does not stop at resuscitation. Recipients are expected to build and formalize processes, protocols, and mechanisms for "warm hand-off" referrals. In practice, that means setting up workflows so that after an overdose is reversed, the individual can be actively connected to appropriate treatment, recovery supports, harm reduction services, and other psychosocial resources, rather than simply being released with minimal follow-up. The program is looking for coordinated referral pathways that are reliable, repeatable, and responsive, and that make it easier for people to access care at a moment when they may be more open to help.
The opportunity also requires recipients to provide safety education related to fentanyl, synthetic opioids, and other evolving drug trends associated with overdoses. This includes keeping responders and partners informed about changing overdose risks, exposure concerns, and patterns in the drug supply, and ensuring that training and outreach reflect current realities. The intent is to reduce harm both for people at risk of overdose and for the professionals and community members responding to incidents.
Eligibility is limited by statute, meaning only certain applicant types can apply. Eligible applicants are states, local governmental entities, and American Indian/Alaska Native (AI/AN) tribes and tribal organizations. This limitation is important for planning, because organizations such as nonprofits or universities may need to participate as partners or contractors rather than as direct applicants, depending on local arrangements and procurement rules.
In terms of funding parameters, the listed award ceiling is $800,000, and SAMHSA anticipates making around 15 awards. The original application closing date for this cycle was April 15, 2024, and the opportunity record shows a creation date of February 14, 2024. Overall, the grant supports a full continuum approach: rapid overdose reversal capacity, structured linkage to treatment and recovery-related services through warm hand-offs, and up-to-date education on fentanyl and other high-risk drug trends to improve both public safety and health outcomes.Apply for TI 24 006
