The Muscogee (Creek) Nation received a $260,000 Project Grant award from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) under the Block Grants for Community Mental Health Services program (CFDA 93.958). The grant will fund the "MCNDH Native Connections Project" to prevent and reduce suicidal behavior and substance misuse, and promote mental health among American Indian/Alaska Native (AI/AN) youth up to age 24 within the Muscogee Nation's tribal jurisdiction. Key goals include strengthening the capacity of suicide prevention, substance misuse prevention, and mental health services for AI/AN youth, developing/revising postvention protocols for local schools and community centers, and reducing the prevalence of suicide, suicidal behaviors, and substance misuse among at-risk AI/AN youth. The project aims to serve 1,325 high-risk AI/AN youth over the 5-year award period from September 2024 to September 2029.
