History and Intent of the Substance Abuse Prevention and Treatment Block Grant 2
History and Intent of the Substance Abuse Prevention and Treatment Block Grant Public Law 97 -35 (PL 97 -35) created the Alcohol, Drug Abuse and Mental Health Services (ADMS) Block Grant. PL 97 -35 became effective on October 1, 1981. In addition to funding alcohol and drug services, the ADMS Block Grant included funds for mental health services. 3
History and Intent of the Substance Abuse Prevention and Treatment Block Grant The ADAMHA Reorganization Act (Public Law 102 -321, 102 d Congress) of 1992 created several significant changes in the Block Grant, including the following: ØIt created a distinct block grant for mental health services and a distinct block grant for substance abuse services. ØIt changed the name of the portion of the Block Grant for alcohol and drug services to the Substance Abuse Prevention and Treatment (SAPT) Block Grant. 4
History and Intent of the Substance Abuse Prevention and Treatment Block Grant The current Block Grant regulations were released in the Federal Register in March 1993. The official citation of the current regulations is Title 45 of the Code of Federal Regulations Part 96 (45 CFR Part 96), Substance Abuse Prevention and Treatment Block Grants; Interim Final Rule. The regulations authorize the Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) to provide Block Grants to States for the purpose of planning, carrying out, and evaluating activities to prevent and treat substance abuse. 5
History and Intent of the Substance Abuse Prevention and Treatment Block Grant The SAPT Block Grant also incorporates provisions from each of the following: ØThe Tobacco Regulation for Substance Abuse Prevention and Treatment Block Grants, otherwise known as the “Synar” regulations, published in the Federal Register in January 1996. ØThe Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Circular A-133. ØThe Charitable Choice final rules published in the Federal Register on September 30, 2003. 6
History and Intent of the Substance Abuse Prevention and Treatment Block Grant The Children’s Health Act of 2000 altered the following SAPT Block Grant requirements: ØStates are no longer required to spend a minimum of 35 percent of their Block Grant funds specifically on drug-related activities and a minimum of 35 percent on alcohol-related activities. ØStates do not have to maintain a $100, 000 revolving loan fund to support homes for persons recovering from substance abuse—this is now optional. 7
History and Intent of the Substance Abuse Prevention and Treatment Block Grant ØStates may allocate Block Grant funds to faith- based treatment programs that maintain their religious character and hire people of their same faith. ØThe Secretary may exempt from maintenance of effort requirements any one-time infusion of funds that are used for a single purpose. The Children’s Health Act also required that by 2002 the Secretary submit to Congress a plan that outlines how the Block Grant program will become a performance-based system. 8
