Lincoln, NE – The Nebraska Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) Division of Behavioral Health is issuing a Request for Applications (RFA) for opioid use disorder (OUD) and/or substance use disorder (SUD) treatment infrastructure renovations, development, or expansion to enhance the Nebraska treatment system as outlined in Neb. Rev. Stat. § 71-2492.
Entities eligible to apply for grant funds include OUD and/or SUD treatment facilities, public-private, nonprofit, and for-profit entities.
“With the distribution of these funds, communities that have never received funding to build or expand treatment facilities may have the opportunity to do so now," said Dr. Thomas Janousek, Division of Behavioral Health Director. “This funding gives local areas the financial support they need to build spaces to better serve residents and improve treatment in their community."
Applications are due August 1, 2025. Application materials and more information can be found at https://dhhs.ne.gov/Pages/Opioid-Treatment-Infrastructure-Cash-Fund-RFA.aspx
