Dogwood Health Announces Recovery-Oriented Grants

Dogwood Health Trust is seeking proposals from counties, municipalities and nonprofit organizations in the 18 counties and Qualla boundary of Western North Carolina that are interested in conducting collaborative planning to establish, refine and/or resource recovery-oriented justice systems. Partners who provide or who are exploring the provision of evidence-based practices such as recovery/treatment courts, diversion programs, community-based reentry supports, community behavioral health centers, jail-based SUD treatment programs and other models proven to be effective in supporting successful recovery are encouraged to submit a proposal.

Dogwood will provide a maximum of six awards of up to $25,000 each for a year of tailored on-site and remote technical assistance. Grants will fund contracts for provided content-level experts, along with flexible funding to support staff planning time. Dogwood is particularly interested in proposals that focus on new or established collaborations between governmental institutions and community-based providers.

Award notifications will be made by September 15, 2024, with funds distributed in October 2024.

The full RFP will be available on the Dogwood website on May 15, 2024, with responses due by 5:00 p.m. ET on June 15, 2024. Organizations interested in learning more are encouraged to attend a virtual information session webinar on Wednesday, May 1 at 1:00 p.m., ET. Additional information can be found on Dogwood’s website or by contacting Michael Pesant at m.pesant@dht.org.
