These cooperative agreements are intended to improve and evaluate
crisis hotlines. The overall purposes of this program are to: 1) increase
the number of crisis programs offering hotline services that are certified
in suicide prevention in the United States; 2) increase the number of crisis
centers/hotlines certified in suicide prevention that are networked through
a single, toll-free, nationwide number, utilizing telecommunications technology
that links callers to their geographically nearest crisis center. It is
expected that approximately 200-300 of these crisis centers will be certified
and networked over the project period of the award (3 years) and 3) to
coordinate, collect, and analyze data from crisis centers/hotlines in order
to evaluate their effectiveness. This GFA solicits applications for two
categories of cooperative agreements: Category I, Certification and Networking;
and Category II, Client and Community-Centered Outcomes Evaluation. In
Category I, the recipient must carry out the activities in each of the
following three elements: 1) certification of crisis centers/hotlines,
3) networking certified hotline services, and 3) project evaluation. In
Category II, the recipient must carry out activities in the design of data
collection standards and in the collection and analysis of data and the
production of a final outcomes report.
