Opportunity Information: Apply for TI 17 002
The Cooperative Agreements for Adolescent and Transitional Aged Youth Treatment Implementation (Youth Treatment - Implementation, or YT-I) is a SAMHSA, CSAT funding opportunity from FY 2017 aimed at helping states, territories, and tribes strengthen how they deliver substance use disorder treatment for young people. The core goal is to improve statewide access to evidence-based screening and assessment tools, proven treatment approaches, and recovery support services for adolescents and transitional aged youth who have substance use disorders, including those with co-occurring mental health conditions. Rather than funding a single program in one location, the emphasis is on building and tightening a coordinated statewide system so that effective services are available more consistently across communities and can be sustained beyond the grant period.
Applicants can choose which age groups to focus on based on need. The grant allows states to target adolescents ages 12 to 18 and their families or primary caregivers, transitional aged youth ages 16 to 25 and their families or primary caregivers, or both populations. If a state selects transitional aged youth, it can narrow the focus further to a specific range within 16 to 25 (for example, 16 to 18, 18 to 21, or 21 to 25). This flexibility is meant to let each state design an approach that matches local gaps, whether the biggest pressure point is early intervention for teens, continuity of care for older youth aging out of child-serving systems, or bridging both ends of that transition.
A defining feature of YT-I is that it blends infrastructure improvement with direct treatment service delivery. On the infrastructure side, states are expected to bring together stakeholders across the multiple systems that touch youth with substance use needs, such as behavioral health providers, schools, juvenile justice, child welfare, primary care, and community recovery organizations. The intent is to strengthen an existing coordinated network so it functions more like a connected continuum of care rather than a set of disconnected programs. This includes expanding and improving treatment capacity, developing or updating policies that support youth-centered care, increasing workforce capability to deliver developmentally appropriate and evidence-based services, and spreading the use of evidence-based practices across provider organizations. The grant also highlights financial mechanisms and reforms, meaning states are encouraged to improve the way services are paid for and sustained (for example, through reimbursement strategies, better integration with existing funding streams, or other system efficiencies) so that gains do not disappear when the grant ends.
The program is also designed to produce a model that can be replicated across the state. In practice, that means the funded work should demonstrate an approach to coordinated youth substance use treatment that can be scaled, copied, or adapted by other regions within the state. The expectation is not only that participating sites improve, but that the state uses what it learns to drive broader system change.
SAMHSA describes several client-level outcomes it expects this work to support. These include increased rates of abstinence and improved functioning in key life areas, particularly greater enrollment or participation in education, vocational training, and employment. The program also aims to strengthen social connectedness, reflecting the understanding that recovery for youth is closely tied to family supports, peer networks, and stable community connections. Another expected outcome is reduced involvement with the criminal and juvenile justice systems, which aligns with the broader goal of early, effective treatment and recovery supports that can interrupt cycles of justice involvement.
A required cross-cutting priority is reducing health disparities among youth who are vulnerable to unequal access and outcomes. Grantees are expected to identify differences in access to care, service use, and treatment outcomes for subpopulations of adolescents and transitional aged youth, then take concrete steps to reduce those gaps. In other words, the grant is not only about raising overall performance, but also about making sure improvements reach youth who are often underserved or face barriers related to geography, race and ethnicity, socioeconomic status, or other factors tied to inequities in health care and behavioral health systems.
Administratively, this opportunity is a discretionary cooperative agreement (not a formula grant), meaning SAMHSA anticipates substantial involvement with awardees during implementation. The funding opportunity number is TI-17-002 under CFDA 93.243. The opportunity was posted October 21, 2016, with an original application deadline of December 20, 2016. SAMHSA anticipated making about 12 awards, with an award ceiling of up to $800,000. Eligible applicants are listed broadly as "others" with clarification in the full eligibility text, but the narrative description makes clear the intended applicants are states, territories, and tribes that can lead statewide or jurisdiction-wide infrastructure and service improvements for the targeted youth populations.Apply for TI 17 002
