To educate and evolve organizations and communities in suicide and mental health whileensuring Evidenced-Based Programs are more accessible to Native Americans andVeterans under the age of 24. - Nevada Urban Indians, Inc.

NUI will offer “post-vention” programming, guidance and protocols regarding suicide intervention and identification, trauma-informed care, and increased mental health awareness. NUI will develop a team that is dedicated to responding to community tragedies that can result in suicide clusters or an increase substance misuse among Native Americans and Veterans 24 years old and younger. In response to these events, the established team will offer resource connections and education to increase mental health awareness and the identification of suicidal behaviors. This team of NUI staff members and outside organizations will also provide education and in-service training quarterly to stakeholder community members and organizations that work with this population. Throughout the year, the development of suicidal policies and protocols will be developed and implemented, with the intent to have synergy between frontline organizations serving the Northern Nevada area. In addition, the project will develop “post-vention” protocols to serve individuals that have experienced suicidal attempts or ideations.

Throughout the five years of the project, NUI will offer EBP access to at least 500 Native youth and Veterans, as well as operate a working community education team to enhance and create policies and protocols that focus on suicide. This team will include four new organizations per year, including but not limited to Safe Embrace, Boys and Girls Club, EDDY House, Volunteers of America, Ridge House, rural Nevada tribes, Washoe County School District, Veterans Hospital, Air National Guard, Army National Guard, China Springs youth camp and local judiciaries.
