Description:

The purpose of this cooperative agreement is to build capacity of Zero Suicide Initiative (ZSI) projects to improve the system of care for those at risk for suicide by implementing a comprehensive, culturally informed, multi-setting approach to suicide prevention in Indian health systems. The ZSI Coordinating Center will provide technical assistance in the areas of data collection, reporting, training, resources, and implementation of the Zero Suicide approach in Indian Country. The ZSI Coordinating Center technical assistance will be framed to promote the core Seven Elements of the Zero Suicide model that was developed by the Suicide Prevention Resource Center (SPRC) at https://zerosuicide.edc.org/toolkit/zero-suicide-toolkit.

2.   Train – Develop a competent, confident, and caring workforce.

3.   Identify – Systematically identify and assess suicide risk among people receiving care.

4.   Engage – Ensure every individual has a pathway to care that is both timely and adequate to meet his or her needs. Include collaborative safety planning and restriction of lethal means.

5.   Treat – Use effective, evidence-based treatments that directly target suicidal thoughts and behaviors.

6.   Transition – Provide continuous contact and support, especially after acute care.

7.   Improve – Apply a data-driven quality improvement approach to inform system changes that will lead to improved patient outcomes and better care for those at risk.
