OKLAHOMA FY 2023 SOLARI COOPERATIVE AGREEMENTS FOR FOLLOW-UP PROGRAMS NOFO FG-23-003 - PROJECT ABSTRACT SUMMARY- OKLAHOMA FY 2023 SOLARI COOPERATIVE AGREEMENTS FOR FOLLOW-UP PROGRAMS NOFO FG-23-003. PROJECT SUMMARY: SOLARI WILL PROVIDE ENHANCED FOLLOW-UP SERVICES TO 988 CALLERS IN OKLAHOMA TO REDUCE SUICIDE ATTEMPTS. INDIVIDUALS PROVIDED ENHANCED FOLLOW-UP SERVICES WILL CONTINUE TO RECEIVE SERVICES FOR AT LEAST 90 DAYS AND POTENTIALLY UP TO 12 MONTHS BASED ON CLINICAL ACUITY. SOLARI WORKS COLLABORATIVELY WITH OTHER PROVIDERS, INCLUDING SEVERAL 911 PSAP CENTERS, ACROSS OKLAHOMA TO ASSIST INDIVIDUALS IN ACCESSING THE SERVICE THEY NEED WHEN THEY NEED IT. THIS INCLUDES DISPATCHING MOBILE CRISIS SERVICES WHEN NECESSARY AS WELL AS COLLABORATING WITH HIGHER LEVELS OF CARE IF NEEDED. SOLARI WORKS TO MINIMIZE CALLER INVOLVEMENT WITH LAW ENFORCEMENT AND PROVIDES DIVERSION TO ALLOW LAW ENFORCEMENT TO RETURN TO THE NEEDS OF THE COMMUNITY. SOLARI WILL CONTINUE TO EDUCATE THE PUBLIC AND PROVIDERS IN OKLAHOMA ABOUT 988 WITH A FOCUS ON UNDERSERVED COMMUNITIES, INCLUDING TARGETED COMMUNITY FORUMS. OKLAHOMA'S CALLERS REPRESENT A MIX OF RURAL, URBAN, AND TRIBAL DOMAINS WHO WILL ALL BE TARGETED IN THESE EFFORTS. SOLARI WILL COLLECT DEMOGRAPHIC DATA ON ALL CALLERS TO THE PROGRAM. VOLUME WILL BE CONTINGENT ON THE CLINICAL ACUITY OF CALLERS AND IS EXPECTED TO RISE OVER THE THREE YEARS OF THE PROGRAM DUE TO INCREASED AWARENESS AND PROMOTION OF 988 IN OKLAHOMA. SOLARI HAS ESTABLISHED THE FOLLOWING GOALS AND OUTCOMES FOR THE PROGRAM: 1.
