AI Contract Overview
The Massachusetts Department of Mental Health's Office of Behavioral Health Promotion and Prevention (OBHPP) plans to launch a new grant opportunity beginning in fall 2025, aimed at community-based organizations across Massachusetts. This initiative will provide approximately $3 million annually over an anticipated 10-year period to fund the development, implementation, and evaluation of programs that address one or two of OBHPP’s key social impact objectives. These priority areas include reducing loneliness and isolation, family stress, psychological distress among immigrant populations, violence prevention, substance use disorder prevention, maternal mental health, and early childhood mental health promotion. Eligible applicants must be Massachusetts-based community nonprofit organizations with demonstrated expertise in behavioral health promotion, evaluation, and advancing health equity. Preference will be given to programs that serve communities identified under the Advancing Health Equity in Massachusetts (AHEM) initiative and those utilizing multilingual and collaborative approaches involving partnerships among diverse organizations. The grant program requires recipients to implement evidence-based or evidence-informed interventions aligned with OBHPP priorities, submit logic models and evaluation plans, and actively participate in ongoing reporting and technical assistance activities, including sharing case studies and program results. The competitive application process will emphasize alignment with priority focus areas, programmatic experience, data collection capacity, health equity integration, and community collaboration. No federal acquisition regulations or standard contract clauses apply, as this is a grant solicitation rather than a procurement contract. The official Request for Application and submission deadline will be posted on the COMMBUYS portal, and a webinar is planned for September 2025 to provide interested applicants with detailed information. The funded programs are expected to have significant impact on mental health promotion and behavioral health prevention across the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
