Dates to Apply: 10/26/2022 to 01/27/2023
Estimated Award Date: 09/01/2023
This notice announces the opportunity to apply for funding under the Rural Communities

employed under the RCORP initiative, and to develop evaluation tools and resources
for use in rural communities to inform future community-led rural health initiatives.
The RCORP-Evaluation cooperative agreement has three primary goals, which are to:
1. Analyze, synthesize, and disseminate data and information to relevant stakeholders
regarding the extent to which the RCORP initiative has improved health care in rural
areas; 2. Strengthen the capacity of RCORP award recipients to collect, report,
and disseminate data to enhance the quality and sustainability of their behavioral
health care activities; and 3. Enhance rural communities’ ability to anticipate,
prepare for, and respond to emerging behavioral health care issues, including substance
use disorder (SUD)/opioid use disorder (OUD)-related issues that would further negatively
affect rural communities. For more details, see Program Requirements and Expectations.
