The primary goal is to increase both the availability and the use of critical mental health services for minorities living with HIV/AIDS. We propose to increase the availability and use of mental health services by minorities who are HIV positive through four critical activities: A) Outreach minorities in non-traditional settings, B) Provide short-term Specialized Care Coordination to those we outreach to ensure linkage to mental health and HIV-related services, C) Provide Assertive Community Treatment to those identified with severe mental health and co-occurring disorders, and D) Provide Cognitive Behavioral Therapy interventions focusing on the specific conditions of depression or anxiety disorders, especially Post-Traumatic Stress disorders. Overall, we propose to improve the quality of life and increase the adherence to primary care/health care services for minorities who are HIV positive.

The goal of the Transitions Project is to ensure that children and youth with severe emotional disturbance (SED) within the child welfare system receive needed mental health support through critical developmental transitions in their childhood to grow into successfully functioning adults. The recommendations of the "Governor's Children and Family Summit" directed the Missouri Department of Mental Health (DMH) to lead statewide efforts in developing a system of care for children and youth with SED. As determined by the St. Louis System of Care Board, the focus of this project is to help children and youth successfully navigate the most traumatic transitions they experience within the child welfare system: 1) initially being removed from their homes due to abuse/neglect; 2) experiencing out-of-home placement during the child welfare permanency planning process - often separated from siblings; and 3) as older adolescents leaving the protection of state custody and venturing alone into the adult world. Missouri has long recognized the need for reform. Through efforts such as CASSP, and a few years later, the legislatively enacted 503 Project, the children's mental health service system has moved from outpatient and facility-based to a broader array of community services. However, a gap remains between availability of services and family needs. The state has a mixture of centralized and decentralized child-serving structures that do not readily support a coordinated approach to service delivery. The Department of Mental Health chose St. Louis as the initial site to develop a local system of care based on numerous factors. As one of the two major metropolitan and most densely populated areas of Missouri, the St. Louis area has many unique features. Efforts with CASSP and 503 created an infrastructure that has been sustained and continues to work towards system improvement for children, youth and families. The most critical need centers around the child welfare system.

Circle of H.O.P.E. (Home, Opportunities, Parents & Providers, Empowerment) plans to achieve a community-based, child-centered, family driven, culturally competent integrated system of care for delivering team-based behavioral and physical health care that focuses on coordinated supports for individualized and strengths-focused, responsive services to improve the health and well-being of children and their families. The goal is to provide services 'where children are', and more importantly, to meet the cultural preference of people to seek behavioral health services within the primary care setting, thus assuring a 'home' for every child.
Three objectives, specific to the issue of children with SED, support the Circle of H.O.P.E. goal. They are:
1) Integrate mental health within school-based service sites through the
Federally Qualified Health Center and other providers in the community.
2) A family-driven, culturally competent system.
3) Build an infrastructure to sustain the system of care.

The Missouri Youth Suicide Prevention Project utilizes local community public-private partnerships to provide evidence based suicide prevention with an emphasis on gatekeeper training. A major function of the Project is to assist in achieving the goals of the Missouri Suicide Prevention Plan (MSPP) for reducing suicide and suicidal behaviors, specifically among at-risk youth ages 10 to 24 years old throughout the state. The MSPP is based on the National Strategy for Suicide Prevention and uses the AIM format (Awareness, Intervention, and Methodology). Guided by this Plan, the Project focuses on the following five objectives for the Youth Prevention and Early Intervention Grant activities:
1. Create additional regional suicide prevention sites to implement services locally.
2. Provide mini-awards to local organizations to fund suicide prevention projects, enabling the needs of underserved at-risk populations to & addressed at the community level.
3. Work with the University of Missouri to implement suicide prevention strategies on campuses, and to provide suicide prevention training in the MU teacher preservice education program, as well as the graduate school counselor and school psychology programs.
4. Conduct evaluation to assure fidelity with best practices and measure outcomes.
5. Build statewide and local public/private partnerships of stakeholders to raise awareness and generate support for more suicide prevention resources.
The project is administered by the Missouri Department of Mental Health and is independently evaluated by the Missouri Institute of Mental Health, a part of the University of Missouri School of Medicine. The independent evaluation along with the Missouri Suicide Prevention Advisory Committee will assist the Department of Mental Health in assuring youth suicide prevention interventions are evidence based and tailored to the particular needs of Missouri communities.

The Missouri Mental Health Transformation Initiative: Creating Communities of Hope builds on both the Governor's stated commitment to reforming government to make it more efficient and responsive and initiatives currently underway that will transform the children's mental health services system, the state's suicide prevention process, and the relationship between consumers, families, and the mental health system. Creating Communities of Hope will transform the current system from one driven by disability to one based on public health principles. The Creating Communities of Hope initiative will attain the goals of the President's New Freedom Commission while building sustainable, needs-driven state and local partnerships. The Governor has designated a dynamic and experienced individual, Diane McFarland, to lead Missouri's transformation process and appointed the Transformation Working Group. Through this project, the state has conducted an assessment of current resources and needs, developed an initial strategic transformation plan, and will begin implementing their vision in 2008 of supporting and sustaining a comprehensive, integrated mental health system that is consumer and family driven, community based, easily accessible and where promoting mental health and preventing disabilities is common practice. The plan proposes a strategy for reducing stigma and local ownership of mental health and includes a diversion/re-entry system for individuals involved with criminal justice, the elimination of disparities through culturally competent services, improved access for rural areas, effective screening/referral in early childhood, and expanded mental health within schools.

In order to increase awareness of suicide risk factors, Linn State Technical College would like to emulate the suggested school responsibilities in suicide prevention as recommended by the Center for School Mental Health Analysis and Action (CSMHA). These-include (1)Ensuring that school staff are knowledgeable of warning signs for suicide and informed about guidelines for reporting concerns about students (2) Developing policies for notifying parents of suicidal youth including referrals and recommendations for how they should intervene (3) Offering consistent counseling and support by school staff for suicidal students.
Data provided by the Missouri Department of Health supports the fact that Linn State Technical College students are among the highest percentage of gender, race and classification to commit suicide. Missouri's suicide rate is the highest in Region VII, which includes the states of Kansas, Iowa and Nebraska. Suicide is the 11th leading cause of death in Missouri, primarily by the method of choice of firearms. Men account for 78% of completed suicides. White, non-Hispanics account for the highest percentage of completed suicides at 93%. There are more suicides in Missouri than homicides, averaging two people dieing by suicide everyday. Suicide is the eleventh leading cause of death of adults, the third leading cause of death for kids, and the second leading cause of death for College students. In the past 60 years, the rate has quadrupled for males 15 -24 years old and has doubled for females of the same age. Linn State Technical College would like to provide the best resources and training to its employees, students and student's families in order to reduce the probability of suicide as well as promote positive mental health on its campus.

The purpose of this project is HIV/AIDS prevention through targeted capacity expansion of substance abuse treatment targeted at at-risk substance abusing African American women residing in the City of St. Louis. This goal will be achieved by both expanding services by increasing the number of individuals who are in drug treatment, as well as enhancing services by adding an outreach and pre-treatment component to the existing services. The proposed service enhancement will be based on The NIDA Community-Based Outreach Model and will involve the deployment of two Outreach Workers to neighborhoods in the City of St. Louis that are characterized by high levels of drug use, HIV infection and poverty. Planned expansion of service will include the funding of new substance abuse residential treatment slots for 240 African American women at-risk for HIV infection. These individuals will primarily begin treatment by entering residential services but will be guided through a comprehensive continuum of wraparound including family and child counseling services.

The St. Louis Drug Court created the "Possibilities Program" to enhance the current treatment services to substance abusing young adults ages 17-22 years old. The program will deliver intensive employment training/placement services augmented by an individualized program using peer mentors to deliver services. The enhancement piece will be built around issues of employment training/placement and retention services, career development, business development, mentoring, and life skills training to help these individuals. The program focuses on providing the clients, in addition to treatment, alternative lifestyles that promote their employability, decision making skills, health and wellness issues, family issues, and academic education services (GED). Individuals in the program will receive outreach, treatment, treatment support services, and culturally sensitive support groups. The program will serve 180 young adults during the three year grant cycle (50 in Year 1, 65 in Year 2 and 3).

Missouri's SBIRT will promote screening, brief intervention, referral and treatment services by using evidence based practices and an automated system of tablet computers. Over five years the project will develop and demonstrate effective SBIRT processes in general and emergency medical settings. The project will screen over 80,000 individuals serving 25,000 with significant risk behaviors before they become dependent. The project will use trained substance abuse professionals conducting face-to-face screening of all individuals entering selected medical care facilities. Screening will detect misuse of alcohol, illicit and prescription drugs and tobacco. The goal is to fill a gap in the continuum of care, develop an effective SBIRT implementation, demonstrate the impact of SBIRT on the health of individuals and societal costs, and create an environment in which a sustainable SBIRT model can spread across the state.
