Description
Examines the formulas for distributing state funds under the the Substance Abuse Prevention and Treatment Block Grant, Community Mental Health Services Block Grant, and Projects for Assistance in Transition from Homelessness program as required by the 21st Century Cures Act. Focuses on how well the formulas reflect state service needs, offers recommendations for updating the grant formulas, and considers the potential impact of updates on state funding. Addresses how the current formulas take rural areas into consideration, whether updates are needed, and whether data is available for those updates.
