Opportunity Information: Apply for HRSA 24 014

The Rural Communities Opioid Response Program (RCORP) - Impact opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number HRSA-24-014) is a discretionary grant program run by the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) under CFDA 93.912. Its core focus is on rural communities and the specific challenges they face in responding to substance use disorder (SUD), including opioid use disorder (OUD). The program is designed to strengthen how rural areas deliver treatment and recovery supports by making services more connected, better coordinated, and easier for residents to access. The bigger aim is not only to respond to the immediate crisis, but to help communities build systems that support long-term, sustained recovery over time.

At a practical level, RCORP-Impact centers on improving access to integrated services, meaning it prioritizes approaches where treatment and recovery supports work together rather than operating in isolation. This includes coordinated pathways into care, smoother referrals, reduced gaps between providers and services, and better alignment across the local health and behavioral health ecosystem. The emphasis on integration and coordination reflects the reality that people with SUD/OUD often need multiple types of support (clinical treatment, recovery services, and wraparound resources) and that rural communities can face added barriers such as workforce shortages, transportation distance, limited provider networks, and fewer specialized services.

The applicant eligibility is broad and includes essentially any domestic public or private entity, whether nonprofit or for-profit, as long as it meets the program requirements. Eligible applicants specifically include state, county, city or township governments; special district governments; independent school districts; public and state-controlled institutions of higher education; private institutions of higher education; federally recognized Native American tribal governments and other tribal organizations; nonprofits with or without 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education in those categories); for-profit organizations (including those other than small businesses); small businesses; and other domestic entities. This wide eligibility structure supports the program's intent to encourage collaboration across sectors that may play a role in treatment access and recovery supports in rural settings.

Funding is provided through a grant mechanism, with an award ceiling of $750,000 per award. HRSA expected to make 16 awards under this opportunity. The original application closing date was May 6, 2024, and the opportunity was created on March 6, 2024. In short, RCORP-Impact is aimed at helping rural communities strengthen and coordinate their SUD/OUD treatment and recovery systems so that people can enter care more easily, stay engaged, and have better chances at long-term recovery outcomes.
