These investments will help move people from the streets into treatment and recovery, strengthen families, save lives, and make communities safer," said Secretary Kennedy. “Every community deserves access to effective behavioral health services that help people prevent addiction, achieve recovery, address mental health challenges, and respond to crises,” said SAMHSA Principal Deputy Assistant Secretary Christopher D. Carroll.

“Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinics are a cornerstone of this effort, providing comprehensive, community-based care that helps people sustain recovery and rebuild their lives. Alongside initiatives like STREETS, they advance the goals of the Great American Recovery Initiative by connecting people to treatment, housing, and ongoing support that strengthen communities and save lives.

” $96 Million for Safety Through Recovery, Engagement, and Evidence-based Treatment and Support (STREETS) Program The STREETS program, housed within the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), will award eight communities up to $3 million a year for four years.

The program will distribute up to $24 million each year, totaling $96 million over four years, to develop multisector, state-of-the-art care systems for people who are homeless and have substance use disorders, serious mental illness, or co-occurring disorders.

Given the unprecedented burden and impact of addiction and mental illness among the homeless population, this program places special emphasis on rapid, comprehensive and coordinated street-based engagement, treatment, and recovery support services using a community-wide approach that brings together local government, health and housing providers, law enforcement, and the courts.

This funding aligns with President Trump’s Executive Order on Ending Crime and Disorder on America's Streets and the Great American Recovery Initiative , co-chaired by HHS Secretary Kennedy and White House Senior Advisor for Addiction Recovery Kathryn Burgum.

STREETS also supports SAMHSA’s Strategic Priorities to advance evidence-based treatment approaches that prioritize recovery, self-sufficiency, and public safety while directly combating the devastating effects of addiction in America. Programs awarded funding may not use housing first approaches or prohibited harm reduction services. $223.
