The Substance Abuse Prevention and Treatment Block Grant represent a significant federal contribution to the states’ substance abuse prevention and treatment service budgets. The Public Health Service Act [42 U.S.C. §§300x-21-66] authorizes the Substance Abuse Prevention and Treatment Block Grant and specifies requirements attached to the use of these funds. The SAPT Block Grant report is used by states to describe how they’ve met each of 17 goals relating to these requirements as established by Congress.
The SAPT Block Grant report format provides the means for states to comply with the reporting provisions of the Public Health Service Act (42 U.S.C. §§300x-21-66), as implemented by the Interim Final Rule (45 C.F.R. Part 96, part XI).
