The Department of Drug and Alcohol Programs has $3 million in funding aimed at providing pregnancy support services to address the needs of pregnant and postpartum women with substance use disorder.

The department said in a Thursday news release that approximately three to five grants of up to $600,000 each will be awarded to help provide services, streamline care and assure that this population is connected with the most appropriate resources to reach long-term recovery.

During the last iteration of this funding opportunity, 12 organizations received grant funding up to $599,000, and more than 340 individuals have received pregnancy support services since last October, according to the news release.

Questions regarding the grants and the application process should be forwarded to RA-DAGrantsMgmt@pa.gov.
