Substance Abuse Treatment Conference Grants

17 Feb 1995

Public notice was given in the Federal Register on July 25, 1994, Volume 59, No. 141, pages 37773-37775, that the Center for Substance Abuse Treatment is soliciting applications for domestic conferences for the purpose of coordinating, exchanging and disseminating information in furtherance of its mission to ensure the availability of effective treatment and recovery services for individuals who suffer from problems related to alcohol and other drugs (AOD) of abuse. On page 37773, under the Program Description section, it states that ``CSAT will provide support for up to fifty percent (to a maximum of $50,000) of the total costs of planned meetings and conferences sponsored by new or ongoing constituent organizations or coalitions in their efforts to provide treatment for drugs of abuse.'' This funding guideline should have translated into one additional criterion under Award Decision Criteria on page 37775, to read as follows: ``7. A budget fully documenting that non-CSAT support equals at least 50% of the total cost of the conference.'' All applications received after the publication of this clarification notice will be returned to the applicant if the application does not provide a budget that fully documents that non- CSAT support equals at least 50% of the total cost of the conference. All future guidance provided to potential applicants who request grant application kits will contain this additional award criterion.
