| The National Empowerment Center will develop a Recovery Consortium consisting of nine other consumer-run organizations to participate in the transformation of the mental health system to one based on recovery through the development of consumer-run organizations and involvement of consumers in policy development and training. In this manner, the Consortium will carry out the vision of the New Freedom Commission of creating a ''future when everyone with a mental illness will recover." Four experienced, statewide consumer organizations (California, Maryland, Ohio, and Vermont), an expertly led consumer-run research group (Program in Consumer Studies & Training, Missouri Institute of Mental Health) , and four emerging Multi-ethnic Recovery Networks representing each of the major ethnic groups, have agreed to be principal members of such a Consortium. The NEC will coordinate the operation of the Consortium, which will focus on recovery-based policy development and training, and the cultivation and sustenance of consumer-run organizations. Consumer leaders in the Consortium will nurture emerging leaders through sharing expertise, role modeling, and mentoring. The Consortium will use two new Internet tools, iVocalize and threaded discussion forums, to meet its synchronous and asynchronous collaborative needs. iVocalize allows for inexpensive teleconferencing and web casting through the Internet. Threaded discussion groups allow for collaborative work groups to develop training materials and tool kits. | ||

| The Cambridge Health Alliance, a public health hospital system, is proposing to expand access to underserved elderly residents of its new adjacent service area in the Metronorth area of Boston, Massachusetts. The project has three components. First it will expand accessible mental health services to functionally-homebound elderly persons with serious mental illness in the four-city region of Malden, Everett, Revere, and Medford, MA by means of a program, modeled on Assertive Community Treatment (ACT) evidence-based practice, that has been in operation for twenty-five years in the adjoining cities of Cambridge and Somerville, MA,. The second component is infrastructure development in the form of developing a collaborative network among community agencies providing social services to the elderly in the catchment area. The third component is an evidence- base practice, known as Enhanced Referral Care, designed to improve quality by integrating mental health and primary health care, and studied in the SAMHSA- sponsored PRISM-E multi-site evaluation. The project will include a needs assessment and action plan for transportation options, which informants have identified as a major obstacle to care. The evaluation will be conducted by the Human Services Research Institute. The implementation evaluation will include fidelity measures for the ACT and Enhanced Referral models. The outcomes evaluation will measure client functioning, symptoms, satisfaction (using the Press-Ganey survey) and self-report assessment of r cultural competence using the Cultural Assessment of Treatment Services, an instrument developed and currently pilot tested. | ||

| Using sound evaluation science and participation by diverse stakeholders, such as State, county, and local mental health systems, consumers, families, and practitioners, the Evaluation Center at HSRI delivers technical assistance to States and the mental health community to facilitate and disseminate high quality evaluations for services planning and implementation. The Evaluation Center is comprised of 6 programs: Consultation, Knowledge Assessment, Multicultural Issues in Evaluation, Toolkits and Materials, Topical Networks & Web, and Trainings and Conferences. Through these programs, the Evaluation Center disseminates information and knowledge about evidence-based practices, develops evaluation materials and toolkits, provides evaluation-related training adaptable to a variety of settings, provides media for ongoing discourse, and tailors consultation and assistance to specific evaluation projects. The programs also address issues in the public mental health field, such as (1) the emphasis on evidence-based practices and the concerns generated among consumers and providers using other practices, 2) the consumer movement's desire to focus on recovery in outcome assessment and quality-o-f-care measurement, 3) the concern with providing mental health care in a culturally competent manner to reduce health disparity, 4) the desire to use evaluation information to plan services that are both evidence-based and cost-effective, and 5) the concern with measuring quality improvement activities. | ||

| Boston Medical Center (BMC) in collaboration with Boston Public Schools proposes an application to the SAMHSA Linking Adolescents at Risk to Mental Health Services Grant Program entitled Youth-Centered Suicide Prevention (YCSP) in Boston. YCSP is BMC’s model of adolescent suicide prevention and has been implemented over the last three years in the three high schools in one of Boston’s most vulnerable neighborhoods, South Boston. This program was developed in response to a tragic adolescent suicide epidemic in this community, has been extremely successful, and has provided trainings to over 1,000 students per year and direct clinical services to 172 at risk students over the last 2 years. In the last year we have begun the process of structuring and evaluating this program. The primary goals of this application align with this framework: entitled AIM (Awareness, Intervention, Methodology). This application aims to create a model high school-based suicide prevention program that, 1. Increases Awareness of suicide and suicide prevention within high schools and the communities in which they are located. 2. Enhances Intervention effectiveness for adolescents at risk for suicide; 3. Improves the Methodology of high school-based suicide prevention. This innovative project will be developed into a model high school-based suicide prevention program that will be ready for empirical testing and eventual dissemination across schools in Massachusetts and the nation. | ||

Its goal is to promote system transformation in Central MA to divert youth with SED from unnecessary juvenile justice involvement. CMCC will promote coordinated, family-driven, youth-guided care that is individualized, community-based, culturally competent and data driven, based on Child and Adolescent service System values and principles, as refined and elaborated by the President’s New Freedom Commission on Mental Health. CMCC will support the establishment of 2 Family Centers located in the North and in the South areas of the region. The Family Centers will serve as sites for family-professional partnership responsible for training, screening for enrollment into the CMCC project, creating child and family teams for individualized service planning, and administering flexible funds. In addition, CMCC will provide services necessary to create a system of care in Central Massachusetts to collaborate with the Family Centers in providing family directed, youth guided and culturally competent care: | ||

| The Y.E.S. Project will be a three-pronged effort to decrease suicide and suicidal behavior in Massachusetts youth. Y.E.S. will create a safety net for youth in foster-care, foster family support services enabling juvenile offenders to return to a better environment after a suicide attempt, and introduce suicide prevention education in Schools of Social Work. Massachusetts (MA) surveillance for suicides will also be enhanced. The proposed project will be housed in the MA Department of Public Health’s Suicide Prevention Program and will implement 17 objectives of the MA Strategic Plan (which is based on the National Strategy for Suicide Prevention) for this proposed target population. Implementation will be through interagency agreements with the Departments of Social Services and Youth Services and through a contract with a university-based School of Social Work. Foster parents and staff in the foster care system will be trained as gatekeepers by the Department of Social Services (DSS). Families of suicide attempt survivors and suicide completers will be connected to community support and prevention resources through the Department of Youth Services (DYS). Trained gatekeepers for both these populations will ensure that any young person who exhibits warning signs is referred for further assessment by a clinician. The MA Suicide Prevention Program, which has trained clinicians on suicide risk assessment and treatment for the past year, will ensure that DSS and DYS physicians are also trained. A contract with a School of Social Work will provide the structure and content for integrating suicide prevention into their Master of Social Work curriculum. Suicide and suicide attempt data in this population will be collected as part of the evaluation. | ||

| Wayside Youth and Family Support Network proposes to initiate a one-year project of Community Action Planning for Substance Abuse Prevention (SAP) and HIV Prevention (HIVP) in Public Housing. During this period, Wayside will conduct a community needs assessment, select science-based SAP and HIVP curricula, and build infrastructure to begin programming in several public housing developments, targeting youth ages 9 to 19, and their families in public housing developments in Somerville and Waltham, Massachusetts. These developments house dramatically higher rates of minority and immigrant populations than do the cities as a whole. These communities have experienced rapid demographic change. From nearly all-white populations in the early 1980's, the developments have become multi cultural communities where 69-percent of the residents are newcomers to the United States (45-percent Haitian, 16-percent Latino, and 8-percent Asian). Only 31-percent are native-born and white. Single women head 82-percent of families in Somerville Housing; and 75-percent of residents in these developments are under 21. The citywide statistic of youth age 9 to 21 is 15-percent of the total population (Census, 2000). Waltham Housing statistics are closely comparable with Somerville, with approximately 33-percent of residents being Latino and 33-percent Haitian. Housing residents in both cities have identified drug dealing and its use as the biggest problem in the community, particularly, crack cocaine, heroin and OxyContin. The recent overdose deaths of five youth in the Somerville area have moved residents to look for help in preventing more fatalities. Most disturbing is the recent rise in the popularity of heroin use, due to low cost and easy supply. This resurgence in intravenous drug use has brought higher risk of HIV/AIDS exposure to a community already at high risk. | ||

| Roca, Inc. proposes to address the alarming connection between substance abuse, HIV/AIDS risky behavior, and violence in minority communities, resulting from a number of inter- related social problems and conditions, including: high teen pregnancy rates, school drop out rates, and unemployment rates, and low self esteem and personal understanding of life choices and accountability. The model program, the Roca Holistic Prevention Project will serve 150 high risk minority youth and young adults, ages 16-24, who exhibit numerous risk factors and few protective factors and reside in Chelsea, Revere, East Boston and Lynn, MA. This innovative project will reach the highest risk minority youth and young people and result in measurable and positive changes in personal behavior, substance abuse and HIV- related knowledge and attitudes among the target population through an integrated curriculum, multifaceted interventions targeting participant needs and a reduction of risk factors and an increase in specific protective factors affecting participants' lives. The Project will build community capacity to provide HIV/ AIDS and SA prevention by engaging project participants, community residents and leaders, and area professionals in the Project. The project will serve the highest risk and hardest to reach youth and young adults with high incidence rates of substance abuse and HIV infection, through effective, integrated substance abuse & HIV prevention services. The target population includes: runaway and homeless youth and young adults, individuals re-entering the community from the juvenile and criminal justice system, street and/or gang involved youth, pregnant and parenting teens, individuals with a history of sexual abuse, and immigrant populations living away from home for extended periods of time and others identified in the RFR. | ||

| The South Boston Community Health Center requests funding for a youth development project based on the assets model and embedded in a community wide strategy to increase assets among the youth of our community and to build partnerships between youth and adults in our community. A second community wide day will be planned through youth/adult partnerships (Youth Arts Day), and a Campaign will focus on strengths of the South Boston community and on increasing assets of youth. The Youth Development Project described in this proposal rests on several powerful ideas: .:. For needed changes to occur for the youth of South Boston, the community as a whole must begin to recognize and build on its strengths, rather than focusing on its problems. Finding reason for hope is foundational to this work. .:. Youth need to feel part of and supported by their communities. Any effort directed at changing their behaviors will include youth as partners in change. .:. Community change occurs as a result of changes on several levels: community wide (targeting the general population), selective (targeting sub-groups determined to be at greater-than-average risk) and indicated (targeting individuals who are experiencing early signs of substance use/abuse). Many programs exist in South Boston that are targeting the second two. It is critical to develop a strategy in South Boston that will also target the first, through coordinated efforts with several community coalitions. After many years of efforts to address substance abuse through services and programs, we are now developing a community wide, public health strategy, based on a strengths model. In planning and implementation of the project, SBCHC will follow the 5 Steps specified in the Strategic Prevention Framework: Assessment, Capacity, Planning, Implementation and Evaluation. | ||

| CAB Health & Recovery (CAB) proposes to establish the Responsible Recovery program (RR), a community re-entry program for young adults, age 18 through 24, who are approaching release from the Middleton House of Corrections, a medium security facility serving Essex County. The community re-entry program will operate within the facility prior to release and in treatment, residential and community settings in the cities and towns of Essex County, Massachusetts. It will serve approximately 80 young offenders a year. The target population will be young adult offenders ages 18 through 24 with a history and/or current abuse of either drugs or alcohol or both who are at highest risk for recidivism. This will include individuals with a dual diagnosis of mental illness and substance abuse, and those whose biopsychosocial assessment indicates that they are in need of most intensive substance abuse treatment interventions. The proposed RR program will include a comprehensive substance abuse service array with the capacity for treating individuals with a co-occurring mental health problem. CAB's substance abuse service continuum available to RR participants includes residential services at several levels of intensity, methadone treatment, an intensive outpatient program, and outpatient services. These service options will be coupled with the probation department's strong incentive/sanction program to encourage positive behavior and progress toward achieving service plan goals. In addition, RR case managers will accompany offenders on the vulnerable first day of release to provide transportation, encouragement, and assistance in accessing needed housing and services. Grant funds will also pay for wrap around services including transitional mental health treatment, bus passes, tuition and Department of Labor bonding. | ||

The Planning Team will also analyze internal agency data describing patients who access HIV, substance abuse and mental health services at the health center. The Planning Team will identify 3-5 depression and/or substance abuse screening tools to form the basis for Fenway's own screening tool(s). 2. Synthesizing and Adapting. Drawing on their interdisciplinary skills, the Planning Team will adapt existing guidelines and screening tools to Fenway's unique HIV patient population, and will develop protocols that take full advantage of Fen way's interdisciplinary treatment model. 3. Provider Input and Feedback. The Program Director will circulate the draft screening tool(s) to Fenway primary care providers at all levels for feedback on using the tool in primary care practice, its impact on patient care, and its effectiveness in identifying patients who may need substance abuse and/or mental health services. 4. Final Revisions and Implementation. The Planning Team will collect and analyze the feedback of the primary care, substance abuse and mental health providers to further improve the tools' effectiveness and validity. The Program | ||
