Short Title: NITT-AWARE-C
Project Description To improve support and referrals for youth ages 12 - 18 with behavioral health issues in the poorest neighborhoods of Dayton, OH, Mt. Olive Baptist Church will provide YMHFA training for 1,320 adults who live and/or work in the 45417 zip code area (population: 31,000), which is comprised of 17 neighborhoods that are 95% African American, extremely poor, and largely consist of single-parent households with unemployed, underemployed, and/or undereducated adults. The level of violence and crime is higher than in other parts of the city, and the youth in these neighborhoods experience greater ambient hazards such as crime, violence, and drug use. The perception of the home neighborhood as dangerous influences the mental health of adolescents, resulting in higher rates of depression, anxiety, and other behavioral health issues. The purpose of Mt. Olive's YMHFA training and outreach program is to build the capacity of adults living and working in the 45417 zip code area to detect and respond to behavioral health issues impacting adolescents and to connect adolescents with behavioral health issues to needed services provided by SBHI. Three African American community leaders in the 45417 zip code area will receive training as YMHFA instructors. Together, they will offer two YMHFA trainings per month, providing YMHFA training to 360 adults in Year 1, 480 adults in Year 2, and 480 adults in Year 3, for a total of 1,320 over the grant-funding period. Given that there are 7,350 adolescents in the 45417 zip code area, the saturation rate with 1,320 First Aiders would be 1,320 / 7,350, or 18%. Thus, there would be 1 First Aider for every 5.5 youths in the 45417 zip code area at the end of the funding period. This level of saturation would be ideal to provide needed adult social support to all youth in the 45417 zip code area and identify youth who may have behavioral health issues.... View More

Project Description Austin Travis County Integral Care (ATCIC), the local mental health authority for Travis County, Texas will provide Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) training to those individuals in Travis County who work with transition-aged youth (ages 16 - 24) who may or may not be homeless, in foster care, dropped out of school, and/or are involved with the justice system. Individuals targeted for MHFA may work in a community college/university, non-profit, and/or community based counseling center. ATCIC's goals for this project are 1) to increase the understanding and treatment of mental illness and substance use among the youth-serving adults in the identified community-based programs, 2) to increase the youth-serving adults' knowledge of available behavioral health resources in Travis County and how to access them, and 3) to increase the utilization of these resources by those transition-aged youth whom they work with on a regular basis. ATCIC expects to provide MHFA training to 200 youth-serving adults for every year of this project, culminating in the training of at least 600 youth-serving adults in MHFA. Measurable outcomes for the project include a 50% increase in the First Aider's knowledge of mental illness and substance use disorders, a 40% increase in their comfort level regarding assisting someone in a mental health or substance use crisis, and that 30% of transition-aged youth in crisis who receive MHFA from a First Aider are referred to behavioral health services....

Project Description Over a 36-month period, ONTRACK Program Resources (ONTRACK) will expand Youth Mental Health First Aid (YMHFA) resources in three high need communities in the Sacramento, California region. The unmet mental health services need in Sacramento County is high, with only 10.8% of children and youth being fully served through the public system when comparing the general and poverty populations. The CALCAP-Project AWARE Capacity Building Initiative will focus on strategies to increase access to mental health resources for adolescent's age 12 through 18 in the Twin Rivers Unified School District, Sacramento Unified School District, and San Juan Unified School District. At least 324 adolescents will be referred to appropriate behavioral health services over the three-year period. The populations of focus are African American, Latino and Asian/Pacific Island youth in 11 primary zip codes with disproportionately high rates of serious mental health, trauma exposure, crime, poverty, juvenile justice involvement and academic failure. The target communities will gain a total of 550 trained Youth Mental Health First Aiders to support early identification, stigma reduction, and referrals to mental health and substance use services and treatment programs....

Project Description The purpose of Project AWARE Kent is to provide MHFA to Kent State University (KSU) students and staff who interact with the 20,606 KSU transition-aged college students at the KSU main campus. This will be accomplished by saturating the campus, at an estimated ratio of 1:28.6, with at least 720 individuals trained as First Aiders. A total of 20,606 undergraduate and graduate students between the ages of 18-24 were enrolled on the main KSU campus per 2015 spring institutional research data. The majority of KSU students are female, Caucasian and heterosexual. Slightly over one third of students are low income, and 7.5% self-report as LGBT. Almost 35% of KSU female students and 43% of KSU male students between age 18-24 report binge drinking and 19% of students report illegal drug use in the past 30 days. Almost one third of students (30.9%) reported thinking about getting help for mental health problems like depression, anxiety or other issue while they have been a student at KSU an average of 7.5 separate times, but only 42.9% actually sought help. Consequently, we propose to increase the mental health literacy at the university level through the following goals and objectives: eight individuals comprising members of surrounding mental health community agencies and the university will be trained to deliver the MHFA program; train a minimum of 720 individuals as MHFA First Aiders over the life of the project (240 individuals per year of the project); at least 5% of members of student organizations will participate in the 8-hour MHFA training over the course of the 3-year project period and be trained as MH First Aiders; initiate a modest, but vital social marketing and awareness campaign to further increase awareness of mental health and remind individuals of their responsibilities as First Aiders; and increase from baseline in the number of students receiving referrals for services/screenings at university-based counseling centers and community agencies....

Short Title: NITT-AWARE-C
Project Description The Compeer of Greater Buffalo Project AWARE will serve approximately 2,600 transition-age youth who are students at Erie Community College (ECC), City Campus, in Buffalo, New York. These youth were selected as the target population because of the multiple risk factors for behavioral health challenges they face, and the fact that very few mental health services are provided by ECC. Students at ECC are representative of the diversity of the community. As of the spring 2015 semester, the racial/ethnic distribution was: 39% White, 36% African American, 10% Hispanic, 5% multi-race, 3% Asian, 1% Native American/Alaska Native, and the remaining were Other/Unknown. Six percent of students were foreign-born (immigrant or refugee), and 13% spoke English as a second language. Approximately 40% were female and 60% were male. Thirty-one percent were age 19 or younger, and 66% were age 24 or younger. Seventy-three percent were low-to-moderate income, as demonstrated by eligibility for federal Pell and/or state TAP grants. The project will train four additional adults as Mental Health First Aid Instructors and 500 additional adults as First Aiders. Objectives of the project include: reduce self-reported depression, anxiety, and behavior consistent with substance use disorders among the targeted youth by at least 15% per year; increase the mental health literacy of adults in the community by training at least one adult in MHFA for every five transition-age youth in the community; increase the number of referrals for behavioral health screening, assessment, or treatment by 10% in Year 1, 15% in Year Two, and 20% in Year 3, compared to baseline; and increase the number of youth in the target population who access behavioral health resources by 10% by the end of Year 3....

Project Description The University of Texas at San Antonio Counseling Services proposed project, Siempre Manana (There's Always Tomorrow) will develop a comprehensive and far reaching program that addresses suicide prevention at a micro and macro level by providing suicide awareness and referral training to non-mental health faculty and staff, peer educators, other student activity program leaders, and parents. Given the unique needs of a fast growing and large Hispanic-serving institution where many are first generation students, we intend to develop prevention programming in both English and Spanish allowing students with "limited English proficiency" and their families to feel connected culturally and access supportive networks on campus and in our community. Also, San Antonio, Texas is known as 'Military City, USA', with a very strong presence of local service members and military installations. Enrollment of veterans and their dependents at UTSA jumped 64% from 2009 to 2011, from 1,600 to 2,700 students. This high-risk population will be a specific initiative within the program, developing tailored approaches to serve the unique needs of the campus' military, veteran, and military family students. Siempre Manana goals are to: (1) develop training for administrators, faculty, staff, and peer educators with a focus on substance abuse and suicide awareness and prevention; (2) develop culturally sensitive outreach presentations to students on issues including depression, substance abuse, and suicide; and (3) promote the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline, Veterans Crisis Line, and the UTSA Crisis Helpline Program....

Project Description Central Connecticut State University (CCSU) is committed to reducing student deaths from suicide and improving outcomes for those college students suffering with suicidal ideation. CCSU has had four student deaths by suicide in the past five years. The University is committed to increasing suicide prevention awareness and will develop interventions to create a safety-net of mental health support using the SAMHSA model for wellness. CCSU will assess the needs of the students in the target populations and develop programs to address needs as determined by the assessment. The goal of suicide prevention programming is to reduce stigma for students in target groups, to increase protective factors and develop a network of resources within the campus community as well as within the surrounding area for commuter students. Training in Assessing and Managing Suicide Risk will be offered to all health care providers on campus working with students. QPR Gatekeeper training will be offered, allowing for faculty, staff, and other students to recognize the signs and know how to intervene on behalf of a student at risk. Campus-wide special events will address ways in which students can increase resiliency, reduce stigma and can access mental health resources. The CORE survey, offered in year one and three, and the Risky Behavior Survey (as developed by CCSU), offered in year two, will assess the effectiveness of suicide prevention planning. Data to measure student perceptions will be assessed to insure prevention programming effectiveness for target populations, and programs will be amended or adjusted to accommodate as needed. All participants in trainings for suicide prevention will be surveyed for comfort level and the application of skills to intervene with students who are at risk.... View More

Project Description College of Central Florida (CF) Suicide Prevention Initiative is to bring about systematic and cultural change that will result in better identification of and help-seeking for students at risk of suicide. CF's will serve Marion, Citrus and Levy counties in North Central Florida. The overarching goal of the proposed project is to prevent suicide of students attending CF, and their family members. The objectives are: 1) Develop a college advisory committee that will assist and advise in the creation of a campus wide response protocol to manage the acutely distressed or suicidal student; 2) Increase the amount of training to Central Florida College students, faculty and staff on suicide prevention and mental health awareness; 3) Increase collaboration among College of Central Florida, Bay Care Behavioral Health Center, National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI), and other community partners to convey the message that suicide prevention is a community responsibility; 4) Increase the promotion of the National Suicide Prevention Line; 5) Present educational seminars and informational materials to College of Central Florida students, faculty, staff, and family members on suicide prevention, identification and reductions of risk factors such as depression and substance use/abuse; and 6) Increase help seeking among College of Central Florida students and reduce the stigma attached for seeking help for mental and behavioral health issues among our students. This project will allow the college to develop and implement an infrastructure that will promote education and awareness, incorporating the philosophy that it is everyone's responsibility to be knowledgeable on suicide awareness, know the signs-and-symptoms, strategies to dealing with and know the resources to use, if an occurrence occurs. It is estimated that a minimum of 800 students, faculty and staff and family members will receive formal education/training annually on suicide prevention and mental health issues.... View More
