The Yankton Sioux Tribe is seeking Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) assistance to develop and implement a system of care for all youth living within the historic boundary of the Yankton Sioux Reservation. The program will be operated under the Behavioral Health Department of the Indian Health Services clinic in Wagner, South Dakota. A holistic system of care will be established that will focus on the youths' physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual health. Although the program will be targeted at Native Americans, all persons under the age of 21, regardless of race, will be eligible to receive services under the program. Funding will be used to:
o Provide mental health service to reservation youth with a serious emotional disturbance and their families.
o Provide training to the caregivers who will provide the mental health service to the youth and their families.
o Hire a psychiatrist and a clinical psychologist on a contract basis to provide professional mental health treatment to the youth.
The Yankton Sioux Tribe anticipates that this initiative will serve approximately 100 youth and their families annually in system of care service. The service will be comprehensive, holistic, and intensive. The program is much needed because there are no mental health services available on the reservation for youth with a serious emotional disturbance.

The target population for the Circles of Care project is all youth under the age of 21 living on the Crow Creek Reservation. With this project, the Tribe is attempting to design a holistic mental health service delivery system in which service will be provided to youth and their families in a coordinated manner, instead of the fragmented way it is now. The intent is to develop a system in which each youth's physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual needs will be addressed through treatment, which will be based on an individual care plan developed for each youth.

Wakanyeja Pawicayapi, Inc. (Children First, Inc.) is requesting support to develop a Community Treatment and Services Center (CTS) that would serve children and youth aged 3-18 who have experienced trauma on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation in southwestern South Dakota. Lakota children and youth experience traumatic events at much higher rates than the general population in the United States, but resources for treating trauma are seriously limited in quality and scope. The increased, local capacity and expertise that a CTS would offer could help insure that evidence-based trauma interventions arc made available to the target population. Wakanyeja Pawicayapi, an Oglala Sioux Tribally chartered organization is headquartered in the community of Porcupine in the heart of the reservation. Among the services it provides are culturally based mental health interventions for children and youth diagnosed with Serious Emotional Disturbance. The demonstrated leadership of the organization in local and national collaborations, and in strengthening the system of care on the reservation, makes it an excellent candidate for developing and sustaining a Community Treatment and Services Center.

The HELP!Line Center's Suicide Prevention Follow-Up Calls Project will expand follow-up call procedures with HELP! Line Center callers to increase the number of suicidal callers connecting with mental health agencies.
The population of focus for this project will be South Dakota callers who are identified to be suicidal and have reported suicidal thoughts during or within 48 hours before the call. This will include callers to the National Suicide Prevention Line (NSPL) plus callers to the 211 phone number which is answered by the HELP!Line Center (HLC). In 2007, the HLC answered 731 suicide-related calls. South Dakota is predominantly a rural state. Native Americans comprise 8.6% of the state's population, representing 67,614 people. The largest population base is white at 87.2%. South Dakota has nine Indian reservations totaling over 48,000 individuals.
The HLC has answered calls from people having thoughts of suicide since the mid-1970's. Currently, the agency is part of the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline (NSPL) and answers NSPL calls for the state of South Dakota.
The HLC is applying to participate in the Cooperative Agreements National Suicide Prevention Lifeline Crisis Center Follow Up program to enhance its current suicide prevention program. The mission statement of the agency, "Strengthening individuals, families and community by bridging people with resources and support" encompasses this effort.

The Crow Creek Sioux Tribe of South Dakota will enhance the Tribe's suicide prevention strategies and meet the objectives of its suicide prevention plan. The focus population is youth aged 13 to 21 living on the Crow Creek Reservation. During the last thirty years, the Crow Creek Tribe has experienced a high suicide rate that has had a devastating and demoralizing impact on the community, leaving service providers almost totally overwhelmed. Buffalo County, in which most of the population of the reservation lives, had a suicide rate of 49.2 per 100,000 population from 1980 to 2001, the highest rate in South Dakota and well over the national figure. By comparison, the state's rate during this period was 13.5 and the national figure was 10.8. Depression, violence, and physical and sexual abuse are far too common and show no signs of abating - the people are in despair. Unfortunately, the Tribe's extreme poverty severely limits its ability to address the situation. The goals and objectives of the project are as follows:
Goal: Promote suicide awareness in the community
Objective 1: Develop a public information campaign to increase public knowledge of suicide prevention
Objective 2: Expand suicide awareness in the school system.
Goal: Develop effective prevention and intervention services
Objective 1: Implement community-based suicide prevention strategies.
Objective 2: Improve services to people who have been affected by suicide.
Goal: Enhance service provider capabilities
Objective 1: Increase collaboration among all local partners involved with suicide-related issues.
Objective 2: Improve local data management techniques.
Objective 3: Increase capabilities of local partners involved in suicide

The purpose of South Dakota's suicide prevention program is to reduce suicide attempts and completions in South Dakota for youths aged 14 - 24. The project will implement early intervention and prevention programs in 14 high schools and two universities, targeting students, staff, parents, and community gatekeepers. In addition to offering a series of targeted suicide awareness and gatekeeper trainings, the initiative will use an online youth gatekeeper course from the National Center for Suicide Prevention Training, and promote the 1-800-273-TALK crisis line and materials. The project will also develop linkages among schools, mental health centers, and substance abuse treatment providers by creating treatment referral and postvention protocols. Among its partners are Sinte Gleska University on the Rosebud Indian Reservation and Wakanyeja Pawicayapi on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation.

The purpose of the Oglala Sioux Tribe (OST) Tribal Youth Suicide Prevention Program is to develop and implement a comprehensive and sustainable program to prevent suicide among Tribal youth, ages 15-24. The approach has been designed to increase community awareness and support, strengthen capacity and resources for early identification of at risk youth, and develop comprehensive and sustainable systems to prevent youth suicide.
The suicide rate for South Dakota young people, ages 15 to 24, is double the average rate in the nation and young American Indian males in South Dakota die from suicide at a rate that is four to five times the national rate. The OST youth suicide program planning group identified several specific areas of need that, together, offer promise for developing a sustainable program for Tribal youth suicide prevention. These include: 1) need for greater community awareness, support, and coordination for youth suicide prevention; 2) need to strengthen capacity and resources for providing screening, early identification, referral, and follow-up of at-risk youth; and 3) need for comprehensive and sustainable systems for meeting the needs of young people at-risk for suicide, including systems to increase cultural competency of professionals that work with OST youth and families. The OST Program has four primary goals: Goal 1: Increase community awareness, support, and coordination for Tribal Youth Suicide Prevention; Goal 2: Strengthen capacity and resources for providing screening, early identification, referral, and followup of at-risk youth; Goal 3: Reduce the number of OST youth, ages 14-24, who attempt or complete suicide; and Goal 4: Contribute to local, regional, and national knowledge and effective strategies for Tribal Youth Suicide Prevention.

The Rosebud Sioux Tribe will establish the Wiconi Wakan (Sacredness of Life) Health & Healing Center, a place to implement the Tribal Youth Suicide Prevention and Early Intervention Project plan targeting Rosebud Sioux children and youth (ages 10-24) on the Rosebud Sioux reservation. The Rosebud Sioux Tribe does declare the youth sacred (Wakan) and a vital asset to the people of the Sicangu Lakota Oyate. Suicide has created a destructive ripple in the very structure of Lakota Sioux society; effects will be felt for generations to come, the WWHH Center will provide the venue for reviving the life of our people. The overall goal of the project is to strengthen and develop culturally and linguistically appropriate youth suicide prevention and early intervention services for the Rosebud Sioux and be informed directly by consumers, parents, youth and providers within the Rosebud Sioux reservation. The goals of the program include: (1) The Rosebud Sioux Tribe Youth Suicide Prevention and Early Intervention Program will increase awareness of the signs of suicide among community, parents and youth by working collaboratively with other agencies, providers and organizations to share information and resources by promoting awareness that suicide is preventable. (2) Implement a culturally appropriate youth suicide prevention and early intervention program. This level of intervention will include screening programs, gatekeeper training for adult caregivers and peer natural helpers, support and skill building groups for at-risk Rosebud Sioux youth, and enhanced accessible crisis services and referrals sources. (3) The Rosebud Sioux Tribe will implement the public health approach to suicide prevention as outlined in the Institute of Medicine report, Reducing Suicide: A National Imperative.

South Dakota's plan concentrates on creating a sustained statewide infra-structure to implement quality training procedures on screening and assessment measures as well as addressing issues of staffing competency, licensure, and credentialing; service coordination and network building; financial planning; information sharing; and barrier reduction. South Dakota is dedicated to five core strategies: 1) establishment of a well-informed and coordinated state-level infrastructure; 2) development of a clear and concrete action plan with regional and local input; 3) development of a plan for the integrated screening process and identification of screening instruments and assessment protocols; 4) development of a quality improvement process to monitor outcomes of the screening process; and 5) development and implementation of a system-wide training curriculum and plan for the seven Community Health Centers (CMHSs) that are also Core Services Substance Abuse Agencies (CSAs) with a roll-out to all CMHCs and CSAs to follow. The project will enable success by providing opportunities to further identify barriers to integrated services, creative solutions, and a solid knowledge base for expanding into other regions or agencies in the State.
