Recipients will be expected to train EMS personnel on SUD and COD, trauma-informed, recovery-based care for people with such disorders in emergency situations and, as appropriate, to maintain licenses and certifications relevant to serve in an EMS agency. With this program, SAMHSA aims to develop the capacity of EMS staff to support residents in rural communities. This NOFO will be open for FY 2024. The following are the due dates for each FY: FY 2023: Applications are due by May 1, 2023 (Closed) FY 2024: Applications are due by March 20, 2024 Applications submitted by the due date will be reviewed and funding decisions will be made by the end of the FY.
