Community Based Addiction and Withdrawal Services - Primary Health Networks (PHNs) NSW/ACT

Overview

This grant opportunity will provide funding for drug and alcohol treatment services delivered through two Primary Health Networks (PHNs): Nepean Blue Mountains PHN (NBM) and ACT PHN. This grant opportunity will support the continuation of specific services within two projects previously funded under the now-ceased Community Health and Hospitals Program (CHHP): Community Based Addiction Services (NBM) and Community Withdrawal Support Services (ACT) from 2021 to 2025. Funding for this grant opportunity is over one (1) year for the 2025-2026 financial year. The purpose of this grant opportunity is to continue funding specific services within the two projects – delivered through the two eligible PHNs – to build safe, healthy and resilient communities by preventing and reducing health, social, cultural and economic harms associated with Alcohol and Other Drug (AOD) use. The objectives of this grant opportunity are that:   people with alcohol and drug addiction challenges get the support and treatment they need closer to where they live, and  education and early intervention enable people make safe decisions around illicit and synthetic drug use.  The intended outcome of the grant opportunity is to increase access to AOD services including support for underlying mental health issues.  To view the grant opportunity documents, please select the red "Grant Opportunity Documents" button on the left-hand side.
