Description

Southeast harris MHAT - the BAY area council on drugs & alcohol (BACODA) mental health awareness training (MHAT) program will serve and equip school personnel, clergy, emergency first responders, law enforcement, and other members of the community to appropriately identify and respond to individuals diagnosed with a severe mental illness (SMI) or serious emotional disturbance (SED). The project seeks to address local barriers like the mental health practitioner shortage, lack of awareness, cultural stigma of mental health, and lack of outreach. BACODA will provide an innovative solution by providing the evidence-based mental health first aid training to clergy, school/youth development administrators, and law enforcement who in turn will spread the knowledge and skills they gain across their congregations, organizations and communities. Doing so provides culturally sensitive support, thorough outreach, and access to mental health support. The project aims to serve 2,050 individuals over the five years of the project, with the goals of: (1) increasing community support and capacity for mental health services, (2) increasing mental health awareness and crisis DE-escalation trainings for congregations and communities, and (3) increasing access to behavioral health services within the greater harris county area.
