Linking Adolescents at Risk for Suicide to Mental Health Services Program Supplements: The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), Center for Mental Health Services announces the availability of funds for fiscal year (FY) 2007 to expand/enhance grant activities funded under the Linking Adolescents at Risk for Suicide to Mental Health FY 2005 grant announcement. The purpose of these program supplements is to expand and enhance activities established under the initial grant. These activities include the evaluation of existing voluntary school-based practices that focus on identifying high school youth at risk for suicide or suicide attempts, the processes by which these youth are referred to appropriate mental health treatment and/or other services, and the outcomes of these processes. Comprehensive evaluation of these elements is expected to strengthen the evidence base of the programs so they will move toward readiness for review by SAMHSAs National Registry of Effective Programs and Practices (NREPP). In addition, these supplements will enable grantees to investigate two key issues that are essential to implementing suicide prevention programs in schools: . Engagement of youth, parents/legal guardians/other caregivers in the overall suicide prevention program; and . Schools organizational and contextual factors that impact the delivery and evaluation of the suicide prevention practice. Adolescents at Risk Supplements are authorized under Section 520A of the Public Health Service Act, as amended. This announcement addresses Healthy People 2010 focus area 18 (Mental Health and Mental Disorders).
