Comprehensive Suicide Prevention Program for States
Centers for Disease Control - NCIPC
This forecast is for CDC's Comprehensive Suicide Prevention Program for States, a cooperative agreement intended to support implementation and evaluation of a comprehensive public health approach to suicide prevention in the United States. Funded recipients will focus on one or more Focus Prevention Areas (FPAs), groups or settings identified through available data as experiencing a significant suicide burden, higher suicide morbidity or mortality rates or emerging suicide-related trends. Examples may include veterans, people living in rural areas, youth, older adults, men, and members of occupational groups at elevated risk, such as construction, agriculture and public safety workers. Recipients will use timely and relevant data to identify FPAs, understand contributors to suicide and suicidal behavior, monitor emerging trends, and guide prevention planning and response. Recipients will also assess existing suicide prevention programs and gaps in their jurisdiction, strengthen and coordinate multi-sector partnerships, select and implement complementary prevention strategies and approaches with the best available evidence from CDC's Suicide Prevention Resource for Action and commun Awards range from $650,000 to $1,200,000.
