WASHINGTON - Senator Chuck Grassley today said that the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services' Center for Substance Abuse Treatment has awarded a $3,352,000 grant to the Iowa State Department of Public Health.
According to the Department of Health and Human Services, the Iowa State Department of Public Health will use the money to fund the project entitled, "Access to Recovery."
Each year, thousands of local Iowa organizations, colleges and universities, individuals and state agencies apply for competitive grants from the federal government. The funding is then awarded based on each local organization or individual's ability to meet criteria set by the federal entity administering the funds.
