Strategist summary
Pursue
- Behavioral Health Mobile Crisis Team Partnerships (~$764k, close 2026-07-15) — Direct alignment with your mobile delivery model and nervous system/mental health focus. Award scale matches your budget capacity for meaningful expansion. SAMHSA priorities favor community-based crisis diversion.
Watch / verify first
- Behavioral Health Partnerships for Early Diversion (~$703k, close 2026-07-15) — Similar fit and timeline, but verify whether your current programming explicitly targets substance use disorder populations or early intervention. If you're primarily wellness/prevention, the first option is stronger.
Skip
None.
Bottom line
Two solid federal fits with identical timelines. Prioritize the Mobile Crisis Team grant if you can credibly position Soul Medicine as a crisis response/diversion asset. Both require you to articulate partnerships with local behavioral health systems (hospitals, county mental health, law enforcement). Start now on needs data and stakeholder letters.
