Opportunity Information: Apply for TI 17 005

The Addiction Technology Transfer Centers (ATTC) Cooperative Agreement is a FY 2017 funding opportunity from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), specifically through the Center for Substance Abuse Treatment (CSAT). It is a discretionary cooperative agreement (Funding Opportunity Number TI 17 005; CFDA 93.243) intended to strengthen the workforce responsible for substance use disorder (SUD) treatment and recovery support across both specialized behavioral health and primary care settings. The core idea is not simply to fund direct services, but to improve the people, skills, and systems that make high-quality SUD care possible at scale.

The program focuses on building workforce capacity by speeding up the adoption and real-world implementation of evidence-based and promising treatment and recovery practices. In practical terms, ATTC recipients are expected to increase awareness, knowledge, and applied skills among providers who serve individuals with SUD and co-occurring health conditions. The opportunity emphasizes taking what research and practice have shown to work and helping frontline systems actually use those approaches consistently, rather than leaving effective methods underutilized due to training gaps, lack of implementation support, or disconnected service systems.

A major component of the ATTC model is collaboration. Grantees are expected to work closely with SAMHSA and also coordinate with other ATTC Network members to align efforts and share strategies that improve the quality and effectiveness of treatment and recovery supports. The program also stresses alliance-building across regions and nationally, bringing together culturally diverse practitioners, researchers, policy makers, funders, and members of the recovery community. This reflects an understanding that workforce change and sustained quality improvement require more than isolated trainings; they depend on relationships, shared standards, and coordinated problem-solving across the treatment and recovery landscape.

ATTCs are expected to engage directly with providers of clinical and recovery services, along with other stakeholders who influence how services are delivered, in order to improve both workforce training and service delivery. Importantly, the scope extends beyond individual professional competencies. The program also targets organizational capacity so that agencies and systems can reliably deliver effective, evidence-based services across the full continuum of care. That continuum is explicitly described as spanning engagement, treatment, maintenance, and recovery, signaling that the intended impact includes sustained recovery-oriented systems of care rather than short-term clinical episodes alone.

The opportunity also includes a specific priority to support Opioid Treatment Programs (OTPs) in building workforce capacity, aligning with the broader national need to strengthen care for opioid use disorder and improve the quality and consistency of medication-based and comprehensive treatment services. By assisting OTPs and other treatment settings with training and implementation support, ATTCs are positioned to help address workforce shortages, skill gaps, and practice inconsistencies that can affect access, retention, and outcomes.

The desired outcome of the ATTC program is a measurable increase in the capacity of behavioral health and primary healthcare providers to deliver high-quality, effective services to people with SUD and co-occurring disorders. Ultimately, the program is aimed at improving the quality of care delivered in real settings by making sure that practice is grounded in known evidence and that both individuals and organizations have the capability to implement that evidence with fidelity.

From an administrative standpoint, the opportunity was posted December 9, 2016, with an original closing date of February 9, 2017. SAMHSA anticipated making 11 awards, with an award ceiling of $1,175,294. Eligibility is listed broadly as "Others" with additional clarification referenced in the full eligibility text of the announcement.
