2025 RECOVERY HOUSING GRANT

programs Texas Opioid Abatement Fund Council

The Opioid Abatement Fund Council (OAFC) aims to address the opioid crisis in Texas by expanding and enhancing recovery housing resources across the state for those recovering from an opioid use disorder. This grant opportunity specifically focuses on increasing capacity, supporting accreditation and addressing the needs of underserved populations.

In December 2025, the OAFC voted to award the University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston a grant of up to $25 million to increase access to safe, supportive recovery homes that provide people with a stable environment as they rebuild their lives and work towards long-term recovery.

Recovery housing plays a crucial role in abating the opioid crisis in Texas by supporting individuals recovering from substance use disorders. It is a vital part of the recovery continuum that improves quality of life in several areas:
- Reduces Risk of Relapses. It provides a structured, supportive environment for those recovering from substance use disorders, which reduces relapse rates and emergency interventions.
- Fosters Community. It encourages residents to build positive relationships with peers, creating a supportive network of individuals with shared recovery goals.
- Offers Additional Resources. It connects residents with community resources and other services such as job trainings, treatment services, etc.
