You’re invited to apply for Behavioral Health Workforce Development support funding!

The BHWD project offers multiple requests for funding applications (RFAs): the Peer Workforce Investment (PWI) project, the Expanding Peer Organization Capacity (EPOC) project, and the Mentored Internship Program (MIP). 

For these RFAs, a peer is defined as an individual who has self-identified as having lived experience with the process of recovery from mental illness, substance use disorder (SUD), or both, either as a consumer of services related to these conditions, or as a parent or family member of a consumer.
