Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. on Wednesday announced a $700 million investment into behavioral health programs, indicating an emphasis on faith-based recovery organizations.
Kennedy, a recovered heroin addict, announced a $96 million funding opportunity for the Trump administration’s Safety Through Recovery, Engagement, and Evidence-based Treatment and Support (STREETS) program, along with $612 million in funding opportunities for other behavioral health programs.
Speaking at the Easterseals treatment center in Clinton Township, Mich., Kennedy said, “One of the features of our STREETS is opening up funding once again for faith-based organizations. The Biden administration actively discouraged funding to faith-based organizations for recovery. We think they’re critical.”
