Health and Mental Health, Training and Technical Assistance Program to Refugee Serving Agencies.: To help address the special health and mental health risks, challenges and needs of refugees, and assist agencies in providing the highest quality services to refugees, ORR seeks to award a technical assistance cooperative agreement to an organization with demonstrated expertise in refugee health and mental health. This cooperative agreement is intended to assist refugee-serving agencies, including; local volgs, community-based organizations such as health clinics or providers, ESL programs, and employment programs, and ethnic organizations. The grantee is to respond to the health and mental health risks, challenges and needs (including health promotion and disease prevention) in refugee resettlement. The main objective would be to develop a curriculum and training modules for local and mainstream providers to address the needs of refugee population through training and technical assistance. The grantee would prioritize recently arrived refugees, but also address the refugees who continue to demonstrate adjustment distress in the following years. The refugee health and mental health technical assistance provider will serve as an information clearinghouse on refugee health and mental health (including literature reviews, case studies, epidemiological studies, refugee population health backgrounders, fact sheets, disease prevention and health promotion models, etc.), facilitate the exchange of information and best practices, develop and maintain a Refugee Well-Being website, conduct workshops and on-site or web-based trainings, provide a comprehensive health and mental health advocacy, work with local agencies in preparing health and mental health outreach materials serve as a clearinghouse to all medical institutions and providing information, further develop and manage ORR's Refugee Health Listserv, and provide onsite, telephonic and electronic technical assistance and consultation on topics related to refugee health and mental health. Additionally, the refugee health and mental health technical assistance provider will work collaboratively and in close consultation with the ORR Refugee Health Team and coordinate activities with other ORR technical assistance providers as appropriate. Overall, the goal of ORR-funded technical assistance is to improve services to refugees and aid in refugees' and other ORR-eligible populations' long-term integration in the United States. ORR expects to award no more than one 24 month cooperative agreement, with a maximum amount of $500,000, per each 12 month budget period.
