Children of color in the United States are more likely to live in inner-city communities with high rates of community violence and be from socio-economically stressed families with high rates of substance abuse domestic violence. Further, these children have higher rates of abuse and bereavement related to traumatic events (i.e., traumatic bereavement). The mental health correlates of abuse and traumatic bereavement can be severe. Nevertheless, children of color have less access to mental health care and, as a result, are less likely to receive trauma focused, evidence-based services. Community PARTNERS for Promoting Evidence-Based Trauma Services (Community PARTNERS) is a National Child Traumatic Stress Network (NCTSN) Community Services and Treatment Center designed to develop and sustain a community-wide network providers who are trained in and implementing trauma-informed, evidence based services. The goal is to train primary care personnel to use trauma-informed, evidence-based services and provide these services with underserved, inner city, traumatized children from the most diverse communities in the United States, Queens and Eastern Brooklyn children.Each year, approximately 29,200 children will be screened and 1,505 abused and/or bereaved children will receive assessment and treatment services. The traumafocused, evidence-based services and cultural adaptations will be informed by: (1) the
Community and Consumer Advisory Board, consisting of Community PARTNERS staff, consumers of trauma services, and staff from community agencies/systems that serve
traumatized children of Latin, African/Caribbean, and Asian decent.

Project Chai will address the unmet needs of Jewish survivors of the Holocaust and their children aged 60 and older, who live in three sections of Brooklyn that have heavy concentrations of Holocaust survivors. The project's objectives are to strengthen the infrastructure governing the provision of services to this population and to enhance the outreach, engagement, and referral services to isolated, withdrawn Holocaust survivors and their aging children. The goals will be achieved by creating a Project Advisory Board comprised primarily of Holocaust survivors and empowered to monitor the formation of a formal provider network of mental health, health care, and social service agencies with specific agency roles and responsibilities. The enhancement of the outreach services will be achieved by the application of ACT team principles using staff recruited from the diverse communities of Holocaust survivors and trained to assess PTSD and depression. Nachas Health and Family Network, with its staff totally recruited from the communities it serves, has worked since its inception in 1990 with the aging survivor population and is ideally suited to this project. The Nachas staff reflects the diversity of the Holocaust survivor community from the most secular to the most religious and communicates with this population in the variety of languages spoken by its clients. Additionally, Nachas has the support of the different provider agencies with which it partners to ensure appropriate treatment of each client's needs. The Project Advisory Body, with a core of Holocaust survivors, will serve as Project Chai's oversight and monitoring agency. The proposed Nachas ACT team will, with its enhanced skill sets, be able to reach out more effectively and engage the isolated and withdrawn Holocaust survivor. With increased assessment skills, the team will make timely, accessible referrals to mental health, healthcare, and social service agencies.

This proposal targets both the moderate level of community adolescent risk for suicide, and the more acute level of risk that obtains in juvenile justice populations. We outline both well established school-based suicide prevention efforts (TeenScreen) as well as those directed at youth in juvenile community probations (Project Connect). With the guidance of an expert Advisory Board, and in a partnership with state and local probation and mental health authorities, Project Connect offers a 2-day gatekeeper training that considers information about adolescent disorder, treatment options, and ways to better enhance families in the referral process and to better connect with local mental health providers. The TeenScreen and Project Connect activities presented in this proposal address 26 of the NYS Suicide Prevention PlanÂ’s action steps/recommendations that address adolescents.

In response to the growing issues related to depression and substance abuse, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute will enhance existing programs and add several novel approaches, which will benefit the target population. Rensselaer has designed a program to develop training programs for students and campus personnel, create an on-campus network, develop and implement educational seminars, promote linkage to the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline, prepare informational material and prepare educational material for families. It is expected that the evaluation will show that Rensselaer students will experience fewer mental and behavioral health problems each year that the comprehensive program exists.
Two key items are an institutional assessment and the need to develop a Crisis Response Plan. The Jed Foundation was contacted and they, along with consultant Dr. Mon Silverman, will perform the assessment. It is hoped that the assessment report, along with the evaluation efforts of this project, will allow Rensselaer to create an innovative new strategy for suicide prevention. Additionally Rensselaer will create, disseminate and then practice a Crisis Response Plan.
Additionally, we plan to enhance existing services and improve access to care by contracting with a psychiatrist one day a week. Finally, this project will allow Rensselaer to fully take advantage of the data that is gathered, by expanding the analysis to focus specifically on depression and academic success.

Specifically, we will focus efforts on: 1) developing comprehensive, targeted, and coordinated training programs for campus personnel and trained paraprofessional student staff members2) prepare informational materials addressing these risk factors for students, staff, faculty, and parents/families that the objectives of the UAlbany STEPS Program will 1) reduce rates of student suicide, suicide attempts, and related mental/behavioral health problems that can lead to school failure, and 2) increase the utilization of campus mental health and related primary care services by the students in most need of them. This project contributes to the development and enhancement of targeted educational, service and prevention best practice strategies and capacity by clarifying how well both universal and targeted individual-focused interventions derived from needs assessments and survey research with our target population work with our students who are identified as being at high risk for suicide. Outcome and process measures will be used to assess the effects of the STEPS Program intervention.

The Albany County Department of Children, Youth and Families (DCYF), in partnership with Families Together in NYS, Inc., a family run organization, in collaboration with family and youth leaders, and neighborhood and county wide stakeholders, propose the Albany County Family Partnerships for Change. The Albany County Family partnership for Change identifies family and youth leadership, empowerment, and cultural competence as project priorities, along with a focus on reducing long waits for psychiatric assessments and reducing out-of-home placements. The overall target population will be children from birth to age 21 with SED; additional services will be targeted for families in three neighborhoods. The project will also increase the capability of the County to address the needs of four under served populations: early childhood (0 to 5); at-risk youth (8 -14); youth (12 -21) with co-occurring disorders; and transitioning youth (16 to 21). Positive outcomes from this system level focus will include, but not be limited to, reduced costs to the system; improved linkages; increased support for youth and transitioning adolescents; and integrated tracking systems. On the local level, the project proposes to establish welcoming, culturally competent and family- run Family Resource Centers in three neighborhoods (urban, suburban & rural), from which families can access an array of mental health and support services.

The purpose of the proposed project by the NYS Office of Mental Health (OMH) is to build capacity to use positive alternatives to restraint and seclusion (PARS) within OMH operated and licensed inpatient and residential treatment programs serving children with severe emotional disturbances. Its long-term goal is to reduce and ultimately eliminate the use of these restrictive interventions throughout the State by creating coercion and violence free treatment environments governed by a philosophy of recovery and wellness. The project's target population is children and youth served in a State-operated children's psychiatric center, a State-regulated children's residential treatment facility, and a children's unit of a private psychiatric hospital licensed by the State. These sites were selected because OMH restraint and seclusion data show that children in NYS are more than five times as likely as adults to experience restraint and seclusion, and the selected sites are less likely than other children's service settings in the State to use alternatives to restraint and seclusion.
The specific goals of the project are to: (1) create a therapeutic culture that significantly
reduces the use of restraint and seclusion; (2) provide mental health services that support
recovery and incorporate trauma-informed care; and (3) determine strategies that effectively ensure organizations are able to establish a comprehensive, system-wide integration of positive alternatives to restraint and seclusion. A comprehensive approach will be used to implement an organization-wide infrastructure that will better equip each site to promote the use of PARS.

Syracuse University is grappling with serious and diverse mental and behavioral health problems among its students. These issues, such as depression, suicide ideation and attempts, and overwhelming stress, interfere with many aspects of student life, including academic achievement. The Syracuse University Counseling Center proposes Gatekeepers Training Program (GTP) for those at the front-lines who often work with our most distressed or potentially suicidal students: residence hall advisors; health center staff; and academic advisors, counselors or practitioners.We also propose implementing a Mindfulness-based Stress Reduction program to promote life skills development among our general student population.We have started and will continue to adapt the MBSR program for the university student community.Through systematic program implementation, careful experimental design, thoughtful consideration of formative assessment feedback and interpretation of programmatic results over the three-year project period, effective tools and models will emerge that can be adapted for use by other universities and colleges. Most importantly, the mental and behavioral health services available to our own students will be enhanced.

Through funding from this grant, a variety of stakeholders will be trained in QPR in order to identify persons at risk and in need of treatment. Training of non-clinician gatekeepers will convey the message that the entire community is charged with helping other individuals within it. The expertise of local psychiatric emergency personnel in treating acutely suicidal individuals will be shared with campus psychologists, social workers, health educators, and healthcare providers via developing curricula and in vivo training. The collaboration also involves using hospital data to identify the student groups who are at risk for suicidal behavior and other mental illness, to inform public awareness campaigns and clinical interventions on campus, and to develop protocols for a more coordinated response between campus and local community. All of the new initiatives will be optimized by utilizing technology and media that is in keeping with how students typically access information.

This proposal will reduce the utilization of residential services through the establishment of a culturally competent, fully flexible, wraparound model of Care Coordination, and individualized services under a cross-system Governance Structure. Other components to be developed include an increase in the availability of Family Advocates; creation of a specialized mobile crisis response team and short-term housing capacity; and an expansion in individualized service options. A total of 1,500 families will receive services through this 6-year system reform initiative.

This transformation will address disparities in services to children and families who have been traditionally underserved, integrate services for children having multi-system involvement, and foster independence, self-management, and smooth transitions to and from care for older youth. Monroe County ACCESS (Achieving culturally Competent Effective Services and Supports), creates the infrastructure, service delivery, and financing reforms necessary to sustain a system of care that is family driven, youthguided, culturally relevant, and based upon sound scientific evidence. At the systems level, families and youth will serve on the Governing Board and it four Councils: Family, Youth, Cultural Competence, Research to Practice. ACCESS includes community-wide and targeted training to transform the value base of all systems.

The Special Treatment and Research (STAR) Program of State University of New York Downstate Medical Center (SUNY -DMC) (d/b/a The Research Foundation of SUNY), proposes to conduct the Minority Substance Abuse, HIV, & Hepatitis Strategic Prevention Framework Project, in collaboration with 2 substance abuse prevention/treatment and one reentry service provider, to target Black adult and reentry populations in Brooklyn, NY, which has high prevalence of substance abuse, HIV/AIDS, and hepatitis. Women will be a special focus, given their special needs and SUNY -DMC's clinical and research expertise on women. Brooklyn has 35,970 adults with AIDS, 707 children with AIDS, and the highest number of AIDS deaths in NYC (724 or 30.1%). Central Brooklyn (including Bedford-Stuyvesant/Crown Heights, Brownsville, East New York, East Flatbush/Flatbush, Williamsburg/Bushwick, and Canarsie/Flatlands) accounts for the majority of Brooklyn's AIDS cases. The AIDS case rate for the reentry population is unknown, but the NYS prison system has the highest number of HIV + inmates nationwide (5000+), a high percentage of which reside in and return to NYC upon release. HIV/AIDS is associated with substance abuse both directly (via IDU) and indirectly (lack of inhibition of sexual behavior), explaining in part the high prevalence among prisoners. Brooklyn also accounted for nearly one-third of NYC's new HIV cases in 2003, and had the highest percentage citywide made concurrently with an AIDS diagnosis (32.9%). Nearly 1/3 of Brooklyn's AIDS diagnoses are attributable to IDU, and substance use fuels the spread of HIV and other STD by contributing to risky sexual behavior. Due to shared modes of transmission, hepatitis is common among PLWHA and those at risk. Brooklyn had NYC's highest number of hepatitis A and B cases in 2004.

Over the past 20 years, HI V/AIDS has taken a greater toll in New York City than in any other location in North America. The Osborne Association in partnership with the Bronx-Lebanon Hospital Center AIDS Program will lead a community-wide effort in the Bronx, NY to strengthen the prevention services system for substance abuse, HI V/AIDS and hepatitis. The project will target improved prevention services for minority and reentry populations. The Bronx, one of five boroughs in New York City, has a predominantly Latino and African American minority population, a high incidence of substance abuse, HIV/AIDS, and hepatitis, as well as a large proportion of individuals who are or have been involved with the criminal justice system. The applicants request $350,000 per year to implement the five-year project. The project will create a Prevention Service Team (PST) of 12-15 members that is broadly representative of the diverse ethnic populations, constituency groups and key stakeholders in the Bronx. The project partners, along with the PST, will implement SAMHSA's five-step Strategic Prevention Framework. First the project will develop a comprehensive needs assessment for prevention services. The project will mobilize and build capacity by seeking to involve new agencies, create new linkages, and build partnerships specifically focused on prevention tasks. Based on the needs assessment and using a community planning process, the project will develop a strategic plan to increase prevention service capacity focused on minority and reentry populations in the Bronx. The project will implement evidence-based prevention programs and develop infrastructure in two phases, with some core prevention services being initiated during the first year and additional services being phased in during the second and third years based on the needs assessment and strategic plan.

The program will utilize SAMHSA's Strategic Prevention Framework. ASC will begin by forming a monthly Stakeholders Planning Group to promote stakeholder involvement in a Community Needs Assessment (CNA) and strategic planning process. The group will include staff from collaborating agencies that serve the target population, community leaders, advocates, and consumers who will review data, gather information on service gaps, and address the concerns of the communities they represent. To mobilize and build capacity, ASC will provide trainings to the stakeholder group plus trainings on viral hepatitis prevention/treatment for HIV / AIDS Peer Educators at ASC and its sister agencies. ASC will also recruit program participants through its trained Peer Educators, who are indigenous to the target communities. Short-term Prevention Case Management services will help to stabilize, engage, and enhance retention of the target population in stakeholder activities and program services. Following the CNA and capacity-building phases, ASC will develop a written Strategic Plan outlining how ASC will provide culturally and linguistically appropriate services based on the needs identified in the CNA. Though the final determination of services to be implemented will arise from the CNA and strategic planning process.

The William F. Ryan Community Health Center and its satellite, Ryan-NENA, propose to develop and expand existing HIV services to include effective, integrated, sustainable substance abuse, HIV, and hepatitis prevention services, and provide age/developmentally appropriate gender-specific, culturally and linguistically competent services. The Program will target at risk individuals in lower and northern Manhattan.
The Centers' service areas are comprised of a large number of ethnic/racial minorities ho are disproportionately affected by substance abuse, HIV/AIDS, and hepatitis. To effectively combat this, the Minority Substance Abuse (SA), HIV, and Hepatitis Strategic Prevention Framework (SPF) Program will assist Ryan and Ryan-NENA to develop and expand services to include effective, integrated, sustainable substance abuse, HIV, and Hepatitis prevention services. The age/developmentally appropriate, gender-specific, culturally and linguistically competent services are designed to be accessible to, and appropriate for, the target populations, including homeless individuals, individuals who exchange sex for money and drugs (ESMD), individuals and/or partners of individuals reentering the community from correctional facilities, injection drug users (IDUs), men who have sex with men (MSMs), and immigrants from countries with high HIV seroprevalence rates. The goal of the Program is to positively change substance abuse, HIV, and hepatitis-related knowledge, attitudes and behaviors among the target population. Based on a highly structured Program and supported by behavioral scientific evidence of the Health Belief Model, the Trans-theoretical Model of Change (TTM), and the Social Cognitive Theory, Program staff, along with staff from collaborating organizations, will provide Targeted and Intensive Outreach, Individual-Level Interventions (ILI), Group-Level Interventions (GLI), and Supportive Services.

Under the auspices of Inwood Community Service, Inc., (ICS) UNIDOS Inwood Coalition is proposing a Prevention Planning Initiative to decrease risk for substance abuse and concomitant HIV exposure. Using the science-based Communities that Care® Model, UNIDOS will enlist 28 members in capacity building, conducting a needs assessment, and creating prevention strategies that will be effective in Inwood, New York City.
Inwood is a predominantly Hispanic community on the northern tip of Manhattan. Risk factors for pursuing maladaptive lifestyles are pervasive. Drug trafficking, which is directly linked to the risk for drug involvement is serious enough as to have attracted the attention of the Federal New York/New Jersey High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area Task Force.
The goals and proposed actions are as follows: UNIDOS will strengthen the Coalition by formalizing policies and expanding the membership. Thereafter, a needs assessment will be conducted by trained Coalition members. Using the needs assessment, an Archival Data Report will be generated. The Coalition will analyze the data and formulate a Youth Development Plan, which will identify science-based prevention models that will build on Inwoods protective factors and decrease the risk for youth 9-15 years of age of becoming substance-involved.
The prevention planning initiative will be evaluated using surveys and focus groups that will enable us to address process and outcomes. We will disseminate all data from the initiative to local politicians, all the Coalition members, and the community

AIDS Service Center NYC is the Facilitating Organization (FO) for the proposed "HIGH On Recovery/WOMEN," a peer-designed, peer-delivered Recovery Community Services Program (RCSP) that will replicate ASC's successful mixed-gender RCSP. This replication will adapt and tailor the program to specifically target economically disenfranchised African American and Latina women living with or at risk for HIV/AIDS who have a history of alcohol and/or drug (AOD) problems and who are currently engaged in or seeking to enter recovery.
The target population will include homeless or marginally housed women; ex-offenders; HIV-positive recovering addicts; active AOD users contemplating recovery; and women engaged in treatment, on methadone maintenance therapy, or in early recovery. The service area is Manhattan in New York City. Participant recruitment will reach women in shelters, drug treatment centers, through medical providers and other venues in Manhattan, Brooklyn, and the Bronx. These geographic locations have substantial numbers of underserved women of color, high incidence of HIV/AIDS, and high rates of substance abuse.
A comprehensive range of services will be provided, including informational, emotional, affiliational, and instrumental support. The goal of HIGH On Recovery/WOMEN is to promote long-term recovery from AOD by offering a range of peer-led support services and retaining at-risk African American and Latina women in these services, thereby improving their personal health and wellness and that of their families, social networks, and communities.

This project is a partnership of the National Alliance of Methadone Advocates (NAMA), the largest Medication Assisted Treatment Recovery Community Organization (RCO) in the US, New York State and New York City with Albert Einstein College of Medicine (AECOM), the largest provider of Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) in the Bronx, NY. The peer-based Medication Assisted Recovery Services (MARS) Project will be developed and implemented by NAMA, to provide peer-to-peer recovery support services to patients of AECOM's Methadone Maintenance Treatment Programs. The overall goals are to: design, implement, and evaluate selected peer-to-peer recovery services (that complement rather than replace existing treatment and ancillary services) in order to expand access to recovery support services; create a climate for recovery among a population usually neglected by the larger recovery community; and give patients the tools of knowledge of their treatment and personal empowerment to be able to be more effective facilitators of their own recovery. The MARS Project will provide recovery support groups in various culturally appropriate areas of importance as revealed to NAMA in our communication with AECOM's patients and MAT advocates nationwide. A peer council of patients using the services will provide both training in leadership and communications skills. Participants will provide feedback and input regarding the direction of the project. Peer leaders will be recruited and trained to take an active role in the delivery of services.

This project targets Black and Hispanic intravenous drug users (IDU5) and their sex and needle-sharing partners in Mount Vernon and New Rochelle, llocated in Westchester County, NY. The project will focus its efforts on the three sites with the largest concentration of IDUs in the targeted cities: two methadone maintenance treatment programs (MMTPs) and one needle exchange program. This project is designed to help prevent the spread of HIV by linking IDUs and their sex and needle-sharing partners to: 1) Rapid HIV testing, 2) Hepatitis testing, 3) HIV prevention education using two CDC-recommended evidence-based models (Healthy Relationships for HIV-positive men and women and Safety Counts for active drug abusers, 4) Primary care, including specialized HIV treatment if needed, 5) Substance abuse treatment, 6) Specialized MICA treatment services (through two targeted MMTPs), and 7) Other entitlements, e.g. financial, housing, medical, and food subsidies. The project will offer outreach and pretreatment services to the sex and needle-sharing partners of clients engaged through the two MMTPs. The project will also offer outreach and pretreatment services to targeted individuals engaged through Westchester's only needle exchange program, which serves an estimated 360 unique IDUs annually. The project expects to serve at least 300 new unduplicated individuals annually, and will serve 1,500 unduplicated individuals over the 5-year project period. Over 80% of the individuals served will be African-American or Hispanic.

This project will expand substance abuse services to Morrisania (Bronx), Bushwick (Brooklyn), and Chelsea (Manhattan) for HIV testing and STD treatment of HIV-at-risk STD patients who are Black/African, Latino, Asian Americans, and Americans of other ethnic minority backgrounds, including: women and their children; men who inject drugs, men who have sex with men (MSM), and at-risk non-injecting MSM. Services will be delivered through an integrated intervention strategy with the screening, intervention, referral, and treatment (SBIRT). The project strives to: enhance the continuum of care by expanding early intervention services to STD patients to address their substance abuse problems and reduce their chance of HIV infection; increase access to clinically appropriate intervention or treatment for nondependent substance users as well as dependent substance users; improve referral linkages among public health care providers and the substance abuse treatment system; identify system and policy changes which can increase access to treatment for persons served in public healthcare settings. The project proposes to serve 75,000 unduplicated STD patients at risk of or tested positive for HIV infection who will be screened for substance use disorders. Provide intervention services to 15,000 patients, whose substance abuse symptoms would otherwise be undressed; among them 3,000 unduplicated patients with substance use disorders will be referred to and placed in appropriate treatment programs, and 2,400 referred patients will be followed up with GPRA six months after treatment and at discharge.

The Center for Community Alternatives (CCA) will serve as the facilitating organization along with the Syracuse Recovery Community to create the Recovery Network for Second Chances (RNSC). The RNSC will be a peer-lead community comprised of people in recovery who also have past criminal justice system involvement. Building on the tremendous success of the Syracuse Recovery Community, the project will extend this work into two additional cities in Upstate New York. These cities are Rochester and Albany. The Syracuse Recovery Community will work with identified peer leaders in Rochester and Albany to help start recovery communities in those cities. The three communities together will form the network that will span upstate New York. The proposal itself reflects commitment on the part of recovering peer leaders in Albany and Rochester who have worked with CCA and the Syracuse Recovery Community in the design of this program. CCA as the facilitating organization will be responsible for overall project management, financial reporting and general quality assurance including compliance with GPRA. The day-to-day operations and development of the program will rest with the Recovery Network Advisory Committee that will be comprised of peer leaders from each community.

Huther-Doyle Memorial Institute (DBA Huther-Doyle), in collaboration with 13 partners, four of which are New York State Office of Alcohol and Substance Abuse Services licensed treatment service providers, and nine other members of the Rochester Community-based Substance Abuse Service System, proposes Project No Return, to provide substance abuse treatment and reentry services to sixty (60) sentenced young adults age 18 to 24 annually who are under the supervision of the adult criminal justice system, returning to Monroe County from the correctional system.
Project No Return proposes to use intensive case management to address some of the needs of increased support and coordination for this population. Our experience in Monroe County with several case management projects, including one funded by the United Way of Greater Rochester, "Recovery Place Collaborative" demonstrates the efficacy of case management with chemically dependent individuals in improving length of stay and treatment outcomes. The intensive case management to be provided with the unique and comprehensive structure of RecoveryNet, the Rochester substance abuse treatment services partnership will ensure that participants have timely access to drug and alcohol treatment, as well as a full range of support services that address housing, educational/ vocational, health, mental health, family reunification and related needs.
