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.

Project Period: 09/30/2003 - 09/29/2009
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.

FY 2006 Funding: $1,480,589
Project Period: 09/30/2002 - 09/29/2008
Through the Show-Me Kids Project, Missouri's Department of Mental Health (DMH), working with other state and community agencies, youth and families, will focus on the development of an integrated community-based system of care for children with severe behavioral disorders (SED) and their families in the Southwest region of the state. While Missouri has taken steps to develop an integrated system of care, most activities have occurred in urban areas of the state. As Missouri is predominately rural, there is a significant need for system of care development across a multi-county rural area. The goal of the Show-Me Kids Project will be achieved through the following four objectives: 1) Improve access and service integration for youth with SED, especially those with co-occurring diagnoses; 2) expand access to and capacity of culturally relevant mental health services in rural areas with particular attention to the burgeoning Hispanic/Latino population; 3) earlier identification and intervention with young children with mental health problems who are at-risk for SED both within and across systems; and 4) evaluate the effectiveness of the system of care and its components. The system of care will provide a broad array of culturally relevant mental health and related services and supports through an integrated and coordinated service delivery plan with family, youth involvement and collaboration at all levels of the system. To accomplish these objectives an interagency administrative structure will be developed and supported by the State System of Care Policy Team.

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.

Leadership training will be developed to educate and build self-advocacy skills among consumers engaging in the process of transformation. Consumers in more advanced levels of recovery will serve as mentors to support the efforts of leadership. Specific emphasis will be on older teens, Latin American and southeast Missouri consumers who receive minimal supports.

FY 2006 Funding: $62,804
Project Period: 09/30/2005 - 09/29/2008
Northwest Missouri State University is working to implement a primary prevention program to reduce the incidence of suicide and increase awareness of mental health issues. The goal is to develop a model prevention program based on the recommendations made by the National Mental Health Association, Safeguarding Your Students against Suicide: Expanding the safety Net (2002). Northwest Missouri State University is a state-assisted, four-year regional university located in Maryville, Missouri; a rural community of 10,000. The enrollment includes over 5,000 undergraduate students and 1000 graduate students. The need for a suicide prevention initiative was brought to the forefront during the 2003-2004 academic year. During that year, we had one student commit suicide in a residence hall and three students commit suicide off campus.During the past year, we realized we needed to develop a better suicide prevention program and response plan.The purpose of this project is to develop a comprehensive primary prevention program for the Northwest campus. Our goals are based on the recommendations made by the National Mental Health Association, Safeguarding Your Students against Suicide: Expanding the Safety Net (2002). These six goals include the development of: (1) training programs for students and university personnel, (2) a network of student services, (3) targeted educational programs for faculty, staff coaches, and students, (4) a University crisis line and informational website, (5) broad-based campus-wide public education, and (6) educational materials for parents and families.

FY 2006 Funding: $75,000
Project Period: 09/30/2006 - 09/29/2009
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.
