This notice of funding opportunity (NOFO) builds on and expands the Injury Center’s current Comprehensive Suicide Prevention program. The purpose of this NOFO is to implement and evaluate a comprehensive approach, with attention to one or more disproportionately affected populations (such as veterans, rural communities, tribal populations, LGBTQ, homeless, or others). These populations account for a significant proportion of the suicide burden and/or have suicide rates greater than the general population in a jurisdiction(s) (such as state, county, or tribe). Strategies and Activities Within first six months, assess partnerships, data, and existing capacity for suicide prevention to inform comprehensive approach to suicide: A. Partnership - Assess existing and new partnerships (including those for syndromic surveillance) to create and implement a multi-sectorial partnership plan. B. Data Utilization - Utilize surveillance (including syndromic) data to refine DAP and contributors to suicide morbidity and mortality. C. Asset and Gap Inventory - Create an inventory of existing suicide prevention programs in the jurisdiction to identify assets and gaps. D. Selection of strategies/approaches – Utilize findings from activities 1A-C to select appropriate strategies/approaches from the CDC Suicide Prevention Resource for Action. 2. Following Strategy 1 activities and no later than year 2, implement a comprehensive approach to suicide prevention. A. Partnership - Build and sustain partnerships to implement comprehensive suicide activities. B. Data Utilization – Utilize surveillance (including syndromic) data to assess suicide contributors, trends, and inform suicide prevention and response. C. Asset and Gap Inventory - Annually update the inventory of existing suicide prevention programs in the jurisdiction. D. Implementation of strategies/approaches – Leverage partnerships to implement strategies/approaches from the CDC Suicide Prevention Resource for Action to address suicide contributors among DAPs and fill jurisdictional gaps. 3. Following Strategy 1 activities and no later than year 2, Evaluation all activities (1A-D and 2A-D) for continuous quality improvement, to assess sustained capacity for suicide prevention in jurisdiction, and to identify promising practices for suicide prevention from the field. 4. Following Strategy 1 activities and no later than year 2, Communication and dissemination of programmatic and data findings to inform partner programmatic decision.
