Opportunity Information: Apply for SM 23 023
The Cooperative Agreement for the Refugee and Migrant Behavioral Health Technical Assistance Center (Funding Opportunity Number SM-23-023) is a discretionary federal grant from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, administered by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA). It supports the creation of a single national Technical Assistance (TA) Center designed to strengthen the ability of U.S. healthcare providers and service organizations to meet the behavioral health needs of refugee and migrant communities. The overall intent is capacity-building: helping frontline clinicians, programs, and systems improve how they identify, engage, and support refugee and migrant individuals and families who may be coping with stress, trauma exposure, displacement, acculturation challenges, and barriers to care.
Under this opportunity, the funded TA Center is expected to deliver a range of practical learning and support services that organizations can use to improve care quality and access. These services include training and learning opportunities, clinical consultation, interactive online learning modules, learning communities that connect peers and practitioners, targeted technical assistance and coaching for specific organizational needs, and a library of online educational materials and resources. A core expectation is that the TA products and services are culturally relevant and language-relevant, meaning they should be usable across diverse backgrounds and support communication and engagement with people who speak different languages or have different cultural frameworks for mental health and help-seeking. The work is also expected to be resiliency-focused and trauma-informed, emphasizing strengths, protective factors, and safe, respectful approaches that recognize the impacts of trauma without re-traumatizing clients.
The grant uses the “grant” funding instrument type and is categorized under health funding activity, with CFDA/Assistance Listing number 93.243. The program anticipates making one award, with an award ceiling of $3,000,000. Eligibility is listed broadly as “Others,” with clarification provided in the official eligibility section of the full notice (not included in the excerpt), which typically specifies what types of organizations may apply and any special requirements.
Key administrative details in the public listing show the opportunity was created on June 30, 2023, with an original application closing date of August 29, 2023. In practical terms, this means the competition was structured to select one organization (or one lead entity, potentially with partners) to operate a national-level TA center that can reach and support a wide range of providers and organizations serving refugee and migrant populations throughout the United States.Apply for SM 23 023
