Alabama Consumer Network Infrastructure Grant: Statewide Peer Run Warm Line Project - The overarching goal of this project, titled the State of Alabama Peer Led Warm Line Project, is to expand local, state, and national partnerships to bridge our network with additional, grassroots services and supports emphasizing a statewide warm line for immediate, person-to-person contact with a staff, trained by Intentional Peer Support, reinforcing the philosophy that whole health, recovery and resiliency is possible through life choices and true, community integration. The population of focus we plan to reach through this grant is adults with serious mental illness and youth with serious emotional disturbance throughout Alabama. Objectives of the program include: -- Develop and operate a statewide Warm Line (WL) using the IPS Model to be culturally sensitive and responsive to transitional-age and adult populations on common support issues. -- Bridge current outreach activities with an innovative, immediate, person-centered method (a.k.a. Warm Line) for public callers seeking supports and expand supports offered to a broader segment of the population that are under-served due to cultural, demographic and location barriers. -- Participate in systems planning and advocate for program and policy improvements to promote awareness about the Warm Line and encourage its use among stakeholder groups, community leaders and the public.
