This notice announces the opportunity to apply for funding under the RCORP&#8211;Behavioral Health Care Support (RCORP-BHS).

For the purposes of this NOFO, improving rural behavioral health care service delivery includes increasing access to and utilization of prevention, treatment and recovery services to improve the care for those affected by behavioral health conditions, which may include substance use and mental health disorders.
