Opportunity Information: Apply for TI 17 010
The International President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief Addiction Technology Transfer Centers (INT PEPFAR-ATTC) funding opportunity is a SAMHSA/CSAT cooperative agreement program (FY 2017) designed to strengthen how HIV programs in select countries identify and address substance use and mental health needs that directly affect HIV prevention, care, and treatment outcomes. Through this initiative, SAMHSA seeks to establish internationally based Addiction Technology Transfer Centers in three focal countries, Vietnam, Ukraine, and South Africa, with the goal of building practical, on-the-ground capacity among HIV/AIDS programs, government agencies, and PEPFAR-supported implementers to respond to problematic substance use, including opioid dependence, and co-occurring mental disorders. The overall intent is to improve national HIV outcomes by making evidence-based substance use disorder and behavioral health services a more integrated, routine part of HIV service delivery for key and priority populations.
A central feature of the program is workforce and systems strengthening through training and technical assistance rather than direct service delivery. The INT PEPFAR-ATTCs are expected to transfer knowledge and build skills related to behavioral health service provision in HIV settings, including prevention, treatment, and recovery supports for substance-related and addictive disorders, especially when substance use and mental disorders occur together. The opportunity emphasizes practical education and implementation support, such as helping partners adopt evidence-based interventions, improve service quality, and create sustainable approaches that can be carried forward by local institutions. A specific priority is supporting the establishment and expansion of peer recovery and other recovery support service programs, recognizing that peer-based approaches can help with engagement, retention, and long-term stability for people affected by substance use disorders and HIV.
The work is framed as part of PEPFAR and host country governments broader strategies to control HIV, particularly in contexts where the epidemic is influenced by illicit drug use and harmful alcohol use. The announcement notes that SAMHSA has played an implementing-partner role in PEPFAR since 2005, providing technical assistance and training to government ministries and PEPFAR country teams in settings where substance use significantly contributes to HIV transmission and poor treatment outcomes. This grant continues and formalizes that role through dedicated centers in the three target countries. It also anticipates potential regional growth: with approval from the relevant U.S. Embassy and PEPFAR leadership, the centers in Ukraine and South Africa may later extend activities to additional countries in their respective regions, allowing the model to scale beyond the initial sites if it proves effective and aligned with regional priorities.
In terms of what grantees are expected to help partners accomplish, the FOA lays out several core capacity-building areas. First, grantees will support national and regional drug and alcohol policy development that enables evidence-based best practices for substance use and mental disorder treatment, which can include helping stakeholders understand proven models and how to implement them in ways consistent with local legal and regulatory environments. Second, grantees will promote evidence-based best practices and quality service delivery for substance use disorder treatment among key and priority populations, with an emphasis on integrating or coordinating these services with HIV programs. Third, they will help partners assess and address barriers that prevent people with substance use and co-occurring disorders from accessing HIV care and treatment, which can involve stigma, fragmented systems, limited provider skills, or gaps in referral and retention processes. Fourth, they will help initiate and implement peer and other recovery support services for key populations, strengthening the continuum from treatment engagement through sustained recovery support.
Collaboration and structured knowledge sharing are also built into the model. The Vietnam, Ukraine, and South Africa INT PEPFAR-ATTC programs are expected to work closely with other SAMHSA-funded, internationally based PEPFAR-ATTCs and with the U.S.-based National ATTC Network to develop and share evidence-based technical assistance tools and approaches. This networked structure is meant to speed up information exchange and technology transfer across sites, reduce duplication, and ensure that lessons learned in one setting can be adapted and applied elsewhere.
Administratively, this opportunity is a discretionary cooperative agreement under CFDA 93.243, reflecting SAMHSA's substantial involvement and partnership role during project implementation. The funding opportunity number is TI 17 010. SAMHSA anticipated making three awards, consistent with the three initial country-based centers, with an award ceiling of $500,000. The opportunity was posted on February 23, 2017, with an original application deadline of April 25, 2017. Eligibility is listed as "Others" with additional clarification referenced in the full announcement, indicating that applicants likely needed to review the FOA's eligibility section for precise organizational requirements and any country-specific or partnership expectations.
Taken together, INT PEPFAR-ATTC is aimed at improving HIV outcomes by strengthening the capacity of PEPFAR implementers and host-country systems to address substance use disorders and mental health conditions as core drivers of HIV risk and barriers to sustained treatment. Rather than creating parallel services, the program focuses on training, technical assistance, evidence-based practice implementation, policy and systems supports, and recovery-oriented models, including peer supports, to make behavioral health competence a standard part of effective HIV programming in Vietnam, Ukraine, and South Africa, with potential for wider regional impact over time.Apply for TI 17 010
