The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) awarded Texas Native Health $1,365,000 on September 30, 2026, under the 988 and Behavioral Health Crisis Services Programs (CFDA 93.00R) to expand culturally responsive 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline access for American Indian and Alaska Native individuals across Texas through September 29, 2029. Texas Native Health, the only AAAHC-accredited Urban Indian Organization in Texas, will strengthen embedded behavioral health capacity, deepen crisis center partnerships, and increase 988 awareness among AI/AN individuals who experience the highest suicide mortality rate of any racial or ethnic group in the nation. The organization serves AI/AN populations in Dallas-Fort Worth, Houston, San Antonio, and Austin. Current capacity gaps include limited warm handoff infrastructure between 988 crisis contact centers and culturally responsive follow-up care, insufficient AI/AN cultural competency training among crisis center staff, and low 988 awareness outside the DFW corridor. Texas Native Health's three goals include executing memoranda of understanding with crisis contact center partners by month 6 of year 1, achieving a 75 percent warm handoff completion rate by year 1 end, and ensuring 80 percent of individuals screened receive a documented referral disposition. The program targets AI/AN individuals of all ages, with highest need among those aged 25 to 44, youth, veterans, and individuals involved with criminal justice and child welfare systems. Work is performed in Dallas, Texas.
