The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration shall award grants to state substance abuse agencies and non-profit organizations to develop, expand, and enhance recovery support services for individuals with substance use disorders.

The amount authorized under the substance abuse prevention and treatment block grant program is increased: (1) to a specified amount for FY2016, and (2) by the annual percentage increase in the Consumer Price Index for each subsequent year.

The Comptroller General shall evaluate and report on the in-patient and outpatient treatment capacity, availability, and needs of the United States.
