Webinar: Responding to BJA’s FY 2018 Comprehensive Opioid Abuse Program (COAP) Solicitation

In this webinar, BJA leaders will review the FY 2018 COAP grant application process. This site-based grant program provides awards ranging from $100,000 to $1,500,000 for a 24- to 36-month project period to deliver financial and technical assistance to states, units of local government, and American Indian tribal governments to plan, develop, and implement comprehensive efforts to identify, respond to, treat, and support those impacted by the opioid epidemic. 

On Tuesday, January 24, 2017, the Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA) released the Fiscal Year (FY) 2017 Comprehensive Opioid Abuse Site-based Program solicitation as well as the Comprehensive Opioid Abuse Program (COAP) Training and Technical Assistance (TTA) Program solicitation as part of the Comprehensive Addiction and Recovery Act (CARA). CARA is the first major federal substance use disorder treatment and recovery legislation in 40 years.
