There is created in the behavioral health administration the building substance use disorder treatment capacity in underserved communities grant program, referred to in this section as the “grant program”.

(2)

Subject to available appropriations, the BHA shall award grant program money to increase substance use disorder capacity and services in rural and frontier communities. Each managed service organization area that consists of at least fifty percent rural or frontier counties shall receive an equal proportion of the annual grant program money to disburse in local grants.

(3)

A grant committee shall review grant applications and, if approved, award local grants. The grant committee includes two members appointed by the county commissioners in the relevant managed service organization service area, two representatives from the managed service organization, and two members representing the BHA and appointed by the commissioner. The award of a local grant must be approved by a majority of the members of the grant committee. In awarding a local grant, the grant committee shall prioritize geographic areas that are unserved or underserved. After local grants are approved for each managed service organization service area, the BHA shall disburse grant program money to the managed service organization for distribution to local grant recipients.

(4)

Local grants must be used to ensure that local communities increase access to a continuum of substance use disorder treatment and recovery services, including medical or clinical detoxification, residential treatment, recovery support services, and intensive outpatient treatment.

(5)

Local governments, municipalities, counties, schools, law enforcement agencies, and primary care or substance use disorder treatment providers within or outside of the managed service organization’s network of providers may apply for a local grant to provide services.

(6)

Money appropriated for the pilot program that remains unexpended and unencumbered at the end of the fiscal year is further appropriated to the BHA for the pilot program in the next fiscal year.
