This Project Grant award from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), under the Congressional Directives program (CFDA 93.493), provides $1,000,000 to Gateways Hospital and Mental Health Center in Los Angeles to expand trauma-informed care and screening for adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) for adolescents and transition-age youth (13-26 years) receiving mental health services. The goal is to reach an additional 250 youth in the one-year project period by extending screening to outpatient care, training more clinicians in trauma-informed practices, and upgrading telehealth capabilities. The project will also engage a youth and family advisory board to enhance community outreach and support mental health services for underserved populations in the Los Angeles area.
