Additional Information on Eligibility
Eligibility for SAMHSA's State-sponsored Youth Suicide Prevention Grant Program is limited to: * Louisiana and Mississippi. * Public or private non-profit organizations designated by Louisiana or Mississippi to develop or direct the State-sponsored youth suicide prevention and early intervention strategy. Eligibility is being limited to the States of Louisiana and Mississippi because SAMHSA believes that the magnitude of last year's hurricanes has so impacted the infrastructures of these two States that they would be at a distinct disadvantage in an open competition. Additionally, both States are reporting significantly higher rates of suicides and suicide attempts as a result of the hurricanes. The proposed program allows SAMHSA to be responsive to a critical public health emergency while providing a similar opportunity to other States through a separate competition, State/Tribal Youth Suicide Prevention Grants (SM-06-005). Each State can receive only one State-sponsored Youth Suicide Prevention Program grant. The States of Louisiana and Mississippi, or their designated entities, may submit an application for this RFA or State/Tribal Youth Suicide Prevention Grants, SM-06-005, but not for both. No single State agency is mandated to be the lead for State-sponsored Youth Suicide Prevention Program grants, as States differ in which State agency has taken the lead for suicide prevention (e.g., Department of Health, Department of Mental Health). Where States have a plan that designates a lead agency, that agency should act as the lead, or should designate an alternative lead for State/Tribal Youth Suicide Prevention Grant Program. If the State plan does not designate a lead, an explanation for why the proposed lead is well suited for this task must accompany the application.
