About this opportunity

The RFA will support local overdose prevention coalitions to reduce overdose deaths from illicitly manufactured fentanyl and other drugs through implementation of overdose prevention, treatment and harm reduction strategies. Multi-sector coalitions are encouraged to apply for this opportunity to fortify and sustain strategies that are responsive to local needs in their community and/or region. Funding originates from the California State Opioid Response (SOR) IV grant awarded to the California Department of Health Care Services (DHCS) from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA). The Public Health Institute (PHI), on behalf of the PHI Center for Health Leadership and Impact (CHLI) which operates the California Overdose Prevention Network (COPN), serves as an administrative entity on behalf of DHCS. Coalitions must apply to one of two funding tiers: $45,000 per year ($120,000 total across 32- months) or $75,000 per year ($200,000 total across 32-months). Funding tiers are designated based on the number of elective objectives included in the workplan as outlined in the workplan.
