Solicitation Profile
The New York State Office of Mental Health (OMH) announces the availability of funds for school districts throughout New York State to implement training and curriculum that will enhance schools’ capacity to be trauma-responsive. It is anticipated that OMH will make up to 61 awards across the state, contingent upon funding availability. The combined total of these awards will be up to $6,100,000 over one year.

The goal of this project is to build resilience throughout a school community by supporting the implementation of evidence-based or evidence-informed programs that will mitigate the impact of trauma and increase students’ social-emotional competencies, decrease problem behaviors, aggression, and violence, prevent suicide, and increase mental health awareness for all adults in the school community, including parents, caregivers, and families.
