Obtaining federal funding is often a cornerstone contributing to our client's organizational sustainability. As a firm that supports agencies in the healthcare and behavioral health industry, GBA often assists clients in applying for Federal Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) funding. This year, there was a high demand for assistance obtaining SAMHSA funding! Our team assisted 14 clients across five (5) states in submitting six (6) different SAMHSA grant programs—all with submission deadlines in Spring 2022—with SAMHSA making announcements of new grantees in September 2023 and most project periods just underway.
GBA congratulates its clients who were awarded funding! In total, GBA clients received $29,750,000 in SAMHSA funding this year.
