OMH will support community level suicide prevention studies that address individual, relationship, community, and environmental risk factors for suicide. Priority Populations include American Indians and Alaska Natives, tribes and geographically isolated communities. The initiative will also support implementation of evidence-based interventions to demonstrate the effectiveness of protective factors for suicide prevention. Grantees under this initiative will also publish and disseminate the successful strategies and promising models to AI/AN and geographically isolated communities. The Youth Suicide Prevention and Mental Health Initiative is expected to result in: an increase in protective/resiliency factors among youth; an increased number of youth linked to needed behavioral health/mental health services; a decrease in the number of youth reporting depressive symptoms; and a decrease in suicide risk behaviors among youth. This initiative aligns with HHS Strategic Goal 2: Protect the Health of Americans Where They Live, Learn, Work, and Play.
