Opportunity Information: Apply for TI 23 008
The Minority AIDS Initiative: Substance Use Disorder Treatment for Racial/Ethnic Minority Populations at High Risk for HIV/AIDS (Funding Opportunity Number TI 23 008) is a discretionary grant program from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, administered by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA). It is listed under CFDA 93.243 and sits within the federal health funding category, with the overall intent of strengthening service systems for communities that are both medically underserved and disproportionately affected by substance use disorders and HIV-related outcomes.
At its core, the program aims to increase engagement in care for racial and ethnic minority individuals who have substance use disorders (SUDs) and/or co-occurring substance use and mental health conditions (often referred to as co-occurring disorders, or COD). The target population includes people who are at risk for HIV as well as those already living with HIV. The emphasis on engagement in care signals that the program is not only about making treatment available, but also about helping people successfully enter treatment, stay connected to services, and receive ongoing, coordinated support. In practice, this tends to involve reducing common barriers to treatment access and retention, such as stigma, lack of culturally responsive services, transportation challenges, limited availability of integrated behavioral health care, and gaps in linkage between testing, prevention, and treatment providers.
A key feature of the opportunity is the expectation that recipients use a syndemic approach. This means applicants should treat substance use, HIV, and viral hepatitis as interconnected and mutually reinforcing public health issues rather than as separate problems handled in isolation. The grant’s framing recognizes that substance use can increase HIV risk, HIV can complicate behavioral health treatment and overall wellness, and viral hepatitis frequently co-occurs with both substance use and HIV risk factors. A syndemic approach typically implies integrated screening, coordinated care pathways, and service models that are designed around the realities of patients’ lives, including medical needs, behavioral health needs, and social determinants that influence health outcomes.
Funding is provided through grants, with an award ceiling of $500,000 per award. The opportunity anticipated making 42 awards, indicating a relatively broad national investment intended to support multiple organizations and communities rather than a small number of large initiatives. The opportunity was created on March 22, 2023, and the original application closing date was May 22, 2023. While the eligibility category is listed as “Others (see text field entitled Additional Information on Eligibility for clarification),” the listing signals that eligibility may extend beyond a narrow set of applicant types and may include a range of organizations involved in SUD treatment and related public health or community services, depending on the specific eligibility language in the full notice.
Overall, this grant opportunity supports programs that deliver substance use disorder treatment for medically underserved racial and ethnic minority populations who are at risk for or living with HIV, with an explicit expectation of integrated, syndemic-informed strategies that also consider viral hepatitis. The intended outcome is stronger engagement in care and better alignment of treatment and prevention services for communities facing overlapping burdens of addiction, infectious disease risk, and structural barriers to health care.Apply for TI 23 008
