The Rural Communities Opioid Response Program (RCORP)-Planning grant is designed to help rural communities develop the necessary partnerships and systems to tackle substance use disorders, especially focusing on opioid misuse. This grant provides financial support to plan and build a comprehensive network of services, but it does not cover direct service delivery. The goal is to prepare communities to offer sustainable prevention, treatment, and recovery services.
Who it's for: This grant is for organizations in rural areas that want to plan and develop systems to address substance use disorders, particularly opioid misuse. Eligible applicants include a wide range of entities such as nonprofits, government bodies, educational institutions, and tribal organizations.
