Native American Health Center (NAHC) proposes the implementation of Zero Suicide at its clinic neighborhoods located in the Fruitvale/ San Antonio neighborhoods of East Oakland located in the San Francisco (SF) Bay Area. The populations of focus include 1. Urban American Indian/ Alaska Native (AIAN) and Indigenous adults that experience suicidal thoughts and urges that reside in and around NAHC clinics; and 2. Other underserved adult community members that experience suicidal thoughts and urges with specific emphasis on those that are uninsured or underinsured, Veterans, and LGBTQI+ that reside in and around NAHC clinics. The purpose of this project is to implement the Zero Suicide framework throughout NAHC’s healthcare system. The goals of the project are as follows: GOAL 1. Increase agency and community-wide capacity efforts to implement a coordinated strength-based suicide prevention and mental health support system for adults living in and around NAHC clinic neighborhood in Oakland. GOAL 2. Reduce the onset and progression of suicidal ideation through the implementation of an accessible, culturally responsive prevention model for adults living in and around NAHC clinic neighborhoods in Oakland. This project will serve 5,000 unduplicated clients by the end of the 5-year project period.
