Community Partnership for Deflection and Substance Use Disorder Treatment

About this grant

The CP program provides funding to law enforcement, other first responders, and local government agencies to develop and implement collaborative deflection programs in Illinois that offer immediate pathways to substance use treatment and other services as an alternative to traditional case processing and involvement in the criminal justice system, and to unnecessary admission to emergency departments. These grant funds are intended to help save and restore lives; help reduce drug use, overdose incidence, criminal offending, and recidivism; and help prevent arrest and conviction records that destabilize health, families, and opportunities for community citizenship and self-sufficiency.

Funding is available to support the development, implementation, expansion, and operation of new and existing deflection programs in urban, suburban, and rural communities throughout Illinois. Ineligible Applicants Organizations that do not fall within one of the eligible applicant categories identified above are not eligible to apply directly for funding under this Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO). However, community-based organizations, licensed substance use disorder treatment providers, recovery support organizations, and other service providers may participate as program partners, subrecipients, or subcontractors through an eligible applicant, consistent with ICJIA requirements.
