Grant Overview
Tennessee applications must address cost constraints when integrating mental health support training within faith settings. The state's 95 counties contain 14 with no licensed psychiatrists, according to 2023 Health Resources and Services Administration data. Budgets require line-item justification for telehealth equipment and travel stipends limited by state per diem rates.
Cost Constraints in Tennessee Faith Settings
Scholars must cap personnel costs at Tennessee's average pastoral salary of $48,200 when training religious leaders. Proposals cannot exceed $7,500 for curriculum development without demonstrating use of existing materials from the Tennessee Department of Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services. Equipment purchases are restricted to devices listed on the state's approved vendor schedule.
Infrastructure and Workforce Limits
East Tennessee's Appalachian counties face higher per-mile travel costs due to mountainous terrain and limited commercial air service. Middle Tennessee proposals must account for Nashville-area lodging rates that exceed the state average by 32 percent. West Tennessee budgets require separate accounting for Mississippi River delta humidity-related equipment maintenance.
Readiness Requirements
Applicants must submit vendor quotes from Tennessee-based suppliers to avoid out-of-state procurement surcharges. Unlike Kentucky applications, Tennessee requires pre-approval of any subcontracts exceeding 20 percent of the total budget through the state comptroller's office. Cost ledgers must reconcile with Tennessee's uniform accounting system for nonprofits.
Verification Process
Final expense reports undergo audit against Tennessee Comptroller of the Treasury guidelines, with disallowance of costs not pre-cleared in the original proposal.
