    Summary

    ATR grants provide funding to Single-State Substance Abuse Agencies in the States, Territories, and the District of Columbia, Tribes and Tribal organizations to carry-out voucher programs for substance abuse clinical treatment and recovery support services pursuant to sections 501(d)(5) and 509 of the Public Health Service Act (42 U.S.C. sections 290aa(d)(5) and 290bb-2). The Access to Recovery (ATR) Program is designed to provide client choice among substance abuse clinical treatment and recovery support service providers, expand access to a comprehensive array of clinical treatment and recovery support options (including faith-based programmatic options), and increase substance abuse treatment capacity. Monitoring outcomes, tracking costs, and preventing waste, fraud and abuse to ensure accountability and effectiveness in the use of Federal funds are also important elements of the ATR program. Through the ATR grants, the Single-State Substance Abuse Agencies in the States, Territories, and the District of Columbia, Tribes and tribal organizations will have flexibility in designing and implementing voucher programs, consistent with proven models, to meet the needs of clients in their target regions. A major goal of the ATR program is to ensure that clients have a genuine, free, and independent choice among a network of eligible providers. SSAs/Tribes/Tribal Organizations are encouraged to develop provider networks that offer an array of clinical treatment and recovery support services that can be expected to result in cost-effective, successful outcomes for the largest number of people. SAMHSA strongly encourages all applicants to consider the unique needs of returning veterans and their families in developing their proposed project. Please refer to this program's guidance for more detailed information. A link to the guidance is provided in the contact information section of this summary.
