Nebraska's suicide rate for youth ages 10 - 24 exceeds the national rate and is the second
leading cause of death for Nebraskans ages 15-19. The Nebraska Suicide Prevention Project will reduce youth suicide by promoting culturally appropriate, evidence based prevention practices statewide, focusing on youth at high risk for suicide: youth involved in multiple systems, minority youth and youth in transition to adulthood, including young returning veterans. The project aims to increase general awareness of suicide as a preventable public health problem and to produce measurable decreases in Nebraska's youth suicide rates through the provision of seed grants for local suicide prevention activities; training gatekeepers and clinicians; implementing screening for suicide with high risk youth; supporting young returning veterans and military families in Nebraska; and strengthening Nebraska's public/private state suicide prevention coalition. The project will promote recognition of the signs of suicide and how/where to get help in Nebraska. Project activities are designed to support local, regional and state suicide prevention efforts to ensure suicide prevention is sustained in urban, rural and frontier areas of the state. The public/private state suicide prevention coalition will monitor the grants progress toward reaching its goals of screening 600-700 high risk youth each year; training 25% of the state's behavioral health providers to treat youth and young returning veterans at risk for suicide; training 600 gatekeepers across the state each year to recognize and act on signs of suicide; assisting 50% of the state's trauma centers to implement means restriction protocols for youth at high risk of suicide; and working with communities to ensure local support is available for youth at high risk of suicide; and working with communities to ensure local support is available for young returning veterans and military families.

The Omaha Nation Community Response Team proposes to build on prior suicide prevention efforts in order to develop and implement a tribal youth suicide prevention initiative, grounded in strong partnerships and collaborations, by assisting Native American youth ages 10-24. Project HOPE will include the American Indian Life Skills Development Curriculum evidence-based approach in providing a school-based curriculum for 200 youth in grades 6-12, incorporating prevention, early intervention, and outreach services, a media campaign to dramatize the existing suicide ideology in the community, and developing an emergency response infrastructure. Project HOPE will strengthen the tribal system of care and enhance the youth's cultural knowledge and life skills. The project will partner with local groups, organizations and universities to incorporate the AILSDC into the mainstream education and health systems while engaging tribal leaders and stakeholders. The project goal is to provide effective comprehensive suicide prevention and early intervention strategies for youth ages 10-24 on the Omaha Reservation in the Northeast Nebraska. The three supporting objectives include: 1) to implement the culturally relevant, evidence-based approach, American Indian Life Skills Development Curriculum, for youth in grades 6-12 in both K-12 schools on the Omaha Reservation; 2) to create effective partnerships in order to integrate new and existing youth suicide prevention and early intervention strategies to provide a comprehensive approach to suicide prevention; 3) to initiate a series of community forums and trainings in coordination with a community media campaign to promote the Omaha Nation Youth Suicide Prevention Initiative; and 4) to implement emergency response services to promote healing for affected families and the community when a suicide is completed.
