2 weeks ago
The Fund for Public Health in New York City (FPHNYC) is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization that is dedicated to the advancement of the health and well-being of all New Yorkers. To this end, in partnership with the New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH), FPHNYC incubates innovative public health initiatives implemented by DOHMH to advance community health throughout the city. It facilitates partnerships, often new and unconventional, between government and the private sector to develop, test, and launch new initiatives. These collaborations speed the execution of demonstration projects, effect expansion of successful pilot programs, and support rapid implementation to meet the public health needs of individuals, families, and communities across New York City.
PROGRAM OVERVIEW
The Bureau of Alcohol and Drug Use Prevention, Care, and Treatment (BADUPCT) within NYC DOHMH works to close gaps and reduce overall morbidity and mortality related to alcohol and substance use among New Yorkers. BADUPCT develops, implements and evaluates interventions and prevention strategies through contracting of treatment, recovery and support services; policy analysis and development; epidemiology and surveillance; dissemination of treatment and management guidelines; harm reduction initiatives; public and provider outreach and education; and community involvement and interagency collaboration. The Bureau amplifies the voices of those most impacted and focuses on inequitable structural, social, service, and communication factors that drive disparities.
In 2023, FPHNYC and DOHMH will select and award three organizations in NYC currently conducting outreach to people experiencing homelessness (PEH) to participate in a new initiative called Integrating Substance Use Harm Reduction into Outreach to People Experiencing Homelessness (IHARP). IHARP is a capacity-building initiative aimed at expanding the provision of essential supports, resources, and services to people who use drugs (PWUD) during outreach. The objective of the project is to improve the capacity of non-profit organizations that serve PEH who use drugs to integrate a comprehensive harm reduction approach. DOHMH will provide contracted organizations with funding, technical assistance, and training to achieve a set of benchmarks focused on increasing their capacity to engage with PWUD more effectively, with the goal of reducing drug-related harms and adopting a person-centered approach to engagement and care.
The IHARP Request for Proposals (RFP) will be released in late April or early May 2023. In an effort to ensure a wide range of organizations are able to apply, including first-time applicants to a DOHMH grant and organizations with limited resources, BADUPCT is seeking a Grant Writing Consultant to offer grant writing guidance and support to applicants.
