ABSTRACT Five Sandoval Indian Pueblo, Inc. (FSIP) is one of the oldest Native American non-profit organizations in New Mexico serving their consortium of 5 tribal communities of Cochiti, Jemez, Sandia, Santa Ana, Zia, and within the surrounding tribal and non-tribal communities in Sandoval County. FSIP provides Behavioral and Prevention services in rural communities where populations are small and access to care is limited. FSIP is generally the primary resource to these tribal communities for these services. FSIP’s program will provide prevention and treatment interventions in tribal communities to prevent and reduce suicide and substance use behaviors, reduce the impact of trauma and promote mental health among tribal youth through age 24. The majority of FSIP services are provided by tribal members and in such a manner that the value of tribal sovereignty, traditional culture, and community integrity are respected and preserved. The project will include tribal community members to be involved in all grant activities including planning, program implementation and evaluation. The program includes culturally responsive evidence-based models in both prevention and treatment interventions. Programming will be accomplished through a community-based approach using universal, selective, and indicated prevention and intervention strategies by enhancing service delivery systems. The enhancement of service delivery systems include: developing appropriate standards of care (the standards of care will specifically address suicide, substance use, and trauma in both prevention and treatment interventions); implementing advocacy strategies through promoting wellness among tribal youth and their families; creating post-intervention protocols in response to suicide attempts as well as suicide contagion/cluster suicide; and promoting overall community health. The target goal of FSIP’s Program is to serve 25% of the youth in tribal communities served annually. Additionally, through conducting the community readiness assessment (CRA), strategies including community engagement and outreach will be identified extending outreach efforts and engaging more youth and their families into programming. FSIP is committed to partnering with both tribal and non-tribal entities to maximize wellness.
