This legislation, known as the Strengthening Communities of Recovery Act , aims to reauthorize and enhance a vital program designed to support individuals with substance use disorders. It specifically amends Section 547 of the Public Health Service Act, which governs the program for strengthening communities of recovery. A key provision of the bill is the substantial increase in funding, raising the annual appropriation from $5,000,000 to $16,000,000 . This increased funding is authorized for each of fiscal years 2025 through 2029 , extending the program's duration. Additionally, the bill makes minor linguistic changes to the program's description, emphasizing "strengthening" rather than just "building" recovery communities.
