Description
The Maryland Department of Health is seeking to expand Assertive Community Treatment (ACT) services to support referrals from Assisted Outpatient Treatment (AOT). The goal is to increase the overall capacity of ACT services in areas with high need. Applicants must demonstrate how the use of funds would directly result in an increased ACT service capacity.
Key points to consider:
• The procurement is only open to ACT Team providers in phase 1 and phase 2 regions.
• For-profit entities do not meet the mandatory requirements to apply directly as a primary applicant.
• Each organization must submit only one application, which should include details specific to each location they are applying for.
• The department anticipates awarding multiple grants based on evaluation by the evaluation committee.
• The total amount that will be awarded is based on funding availability, with a total of $1.35 million available.
