The Massachusetts Department of Mental Health (DMH) is issuing a Request for Applications (RFA) under solicitation number BD-18-1022-DMH08-8210B-21306 to provide grant funding for the establishment of Jail/Arrest Diversion projects across one or more communities in the Commonwealth. The program aims to divert individuals with behavioral health needs from the criminal justice system toward community care, emphasizing pre-arrest diversion to prevent criminal records and providing law enforcement training to reduce the use of force and improve service referrals. Eligible projects include Crisis Intervention Team (CIT) programs, co-response initiatives, and the development of training centers. Applicants must submit a comprehensive package via the COMMBUYS system, including a project proposal, a detailed cost proposal with a budget narrative, and a plan for deliverables and payment. The selection process utilizes a specific evaluation tool to assess applicant qualifications, fiscal soundness, and alignment with DMH goals. Awardees are subject to strict contracting requirements, including the submission of a Standard Contract Form, a Supplier Diversity Program plan, and adherence to the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (ARPA) if federal funds are utilized. Ongoing compliance is monitored through quarterly reports tracking behavioral health calls, use of force incidents, and diversion outcomes.

PHPA 4166: Maryland Volunteer and Professional Firefighters Innovative Cancer Screening Technologies Program
Solicitation # BPM058949
The Maryland Department of Health, Center for Cancer Prevention and Control, is offering grants through the Maryland Volunteer and Professional Firefighters Innovative Cancer Screening Technologies Program (PHPA 4166/BPM058949). This initiative provides funding to local fire departments, volunteer fire companies, and volunteer fire associations to procure and administer innovative cancer screening tests, such as genetic tests, imaging, or specialized medical procedures, that are not typically covered by insurance or provided during routine physicals. The program is specifically for Maryland-based professional and volunteer firefighters, with a total funding cap of $900,000. The performance period for the grants is scheduled from March 1, 2027, to June 30, 2027. Eligible applicants must submit their proposals via the eMaryland Marketplace Advantage portal by November 20, 2026. Applications are required to be submitted in two separate volumes: a Project Narrative and a Budget Justification. Grantees are expected to assemble a local healthcare team to oversee the screening process and prioritize firefighters at the highest risk for cancer. Funding is provided on a reimbursement basis, and awards will be distributed pro rata based on a weighted evaluation of the identification of screening tests, the project implementation plan, the healthcare team, and the prioritization of participants. Compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act and various federal regulations, including the Single Audit Act for those expending over $750,000 in federal assistance, is required.
