This funding application represents a plan for the receipt of a
Federal Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration
(SAMHSA) Formula Grant Award amount of $1,475, 000, which is a
planning estimate for mental health services in FY 1992-93 .
III. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS/BACKGROUND:
This FY 1992-93 Grant Application was reviewed and recommended for
approval by the County's Mental Health Advisory Board at its
meeting on October 22 , 1992 .
The SAMHSA Formula Grant is authorized under the new Federal
"Alcohol, Drug Abuse and Mental Health Administration (ADAMHA)
Reorganization Act", Senate Bill 1306, Public Law 102-321, which
reauthorizes the former Block Grant as a Formula Grant for Federal
Fiscal Years 1992 through 1994 .
While approval of this Application does not obligate the County to
make any expenditures, submission of the Grant Application and
approval by the State are required in order for the County to
receive these Federal Grant Funds from the State in FY 1992-93.
In order to meet the deadline for submission, the application has
been forwarded to the State, but subject to Board approval. Five
certified copies of the Board Order authorizing submission of the
application should be returned to the Contracts an Grants Unit.
