AdditionalInformationOnEligibility: Eligibility for this funding opportunity is limited to the current SAMHSA FY 2012 Addiction Technology Transfer Center (ATTC) Network Coordinating Office grantee, The Board of Regents of the University of Wisconsin System.  Eligibility is limited, based on SAMHSA&#8217;s belief in the effectiveness of a single coordinating center for national, regional, and international ATTCs.  The SAMHSA ATTC Network Coordinating Office has the infrastructure, partnerships, and necessary knowledge and skills already in place and would be best able to coordinate and facilitate bi-directional information exchange between domestic and international ATTCs without a lengthy start-up period.

Collaboration among domestic and internationally-based ATTCs will facilitate the exchange of evidence-based best practices that inform both domestic and international substance use disorder treatment practices, as well as the development of peer recovery programs, for HIV prevention, care, and treatment in the context of co-occurring physical, mental, and substance use disorders.
