Body
SOURCE OF FUNDING:
Comprehensive Suicide Prevention program (1175-454001)
DISCUSSION:
In accordance with its mission to protect the health of all Californians, through a grant awarded by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the California Department of Public Health (CDPH) has awarded grants in seven counties within the state where suicide morbidity and mortality rates are particularly high. These Comprehensive Suicide Prevention funds are aimed at reducing these rates using evidence-based suicide prevention strategies to create protective environments, identify and support people at risk, and strengthen access and delivery of suicide care.
These funds have supported many innovative suicide prevention activities in Humboldt County. These activities include Prevention and Early Intervention training, community collaborations, Suicide Fatality Review, social marketing, and Lethal Means Safety.
This Grant was awarded on October 20, 2021, Grant # 21-10764 in the amount of $100,000 for FY 2022-23. A Grant amendment signed on April 28, 2023, increased the award amount by $190,000 to be used over the entire grant period of December 1, 2021, through August 31, 2025. This increase was not anticipated in the annual FY 2022-23 budget process and requires supplemental budget in fund 1175, budget unit 454001- Stigma & Discrimination Reduction.
