Last updated Apr 6, 2026|Official source

Summary

The chief executive of a State must apply to the Attorney General in the form the Attorney General requires to get a grant. The application must promise that federal money will add to, not replace, other funds. It must show how state correctional officials will work with the State Alcohol and Drug Abuse agency and, when needed, local agencies to plan and run treatment programs. To get money, the State must require urinalysis or other reliable testing before and during a person’s stay in a residential treatment program, and for anyone released who still remains in State custody. People in treatment must get aftercare services such as case management and a range of support services. Providers must be approved by the right state or local agency and licensed if needed. Aftercare must connect treatment in the facility with education, job training, parole supervision, halfway houses, and peer support, and must help place people in community treatment when they leave custody. The application must describe coordination with the Department of Health and Human Services’ Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration. The office in charge of the trust fund under section 10158 must prepare the application and manage the grants, including spending reviews, reports, audits, technical help, and payments. A State may use these funds for nonresidential aftercare if the chief executive certifies the State is providing, and will keep providing, enough residential treatment.
