FY18 RCORP-PLANNING APPLICANT ORGANIZATION# G25RH32925 DOES TARGET SERVICE AREA OVERLAP WITH AN EXISTING FY19 OR FY 20 RCORP-IMPLEMENTATION AWARD RECIPIENT’S SERVICE AREA (Y/N): NO BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE TARGET POPULATION: NATIVE POPULATION OF NORTHERN AGENCY, INCLUDING SHIPROCK HAS 97% OF AMERICAN INDIAN POPULATION. HISTORICALLY, AMERICAN INDIAN POPULATION HAVE GREATER HEALTH DISPARITIES IN INEQUALITIES TO HEALTH CARE. THE AMERICAN INDIAN PEOPLE HAVE LONG EXPERIENCED LOWER HEALTH STATUS WHEN COMPARED WITH OTHER AMERICANS. LOWER LIFE EXPECTANCY AND THE DISPROPORTIONATE DISEASE BURDEN. THE NORTHWEST AGENCY OF THE NAVAJO NATION WHICH INCLUDES A RURAL COMMUNITY CALLED SHIPROCK HAS SUFFERED DISPROPORTIONATELY COMPARED TO THE NATIONAL OPIOID CRISIS IN THE BATTLE AGAINST OPIOID ADDICTION AS WELL AS SUBSTANCE ABUSE ESPECIALLY NOW WITH THE COVID PANDEMIC. IN ORDER TO IMPLEMENT A SYSTEMATIC CHANGE IN REDUCING THE CASES OF SUD/OUD, CAPACITY BUILDERS, INC (CBI), WILL CONTINUE TO LEAD AND FACILITATE THE FOUR CORNERS I NDIGENOUS NETWORK. EFFECTIVE STRATEGIES TO ADDRESS THE GENUINE AND PRESENT DANGER OF THE OPIOID CRISIS MUST BE TAILORED TO THE UNIQUE LANDSCAPE OF THE NAVAJO NATION – SMALL, ISOLATED COMMUNITIES SURROUNDING THE NORTHWEST CORNER THAT ARE FACING A DRUG CHALLENGE THAT OUTPACES THE STATISTICAL IMPACT IN MOST URBAN CENTERS. LOCAL-LEVEL DATA MUST BE COLLECTED, AND LOCAL RESOURCES MUST BE MOBILIZED AND COORDINATED TO ADDRESS THE CRISIS FROM THREE DIFFERENT ANGLES: PREVENTION, TREATMENT, AND RECOVERY. A LOCALLY DEVELOPED SOLUTION DEMONSTRATED EFFECTIVELY, COULD THEN BE DISSEMINATED TO OTHER ISOLATED COMMUNITIES ACROSS THE RESERVATION, SERVING AS A BLUEPRINT FOR RURAL SECTORS WITH LIMITED CAPACITY TO ADDRESS THE INCREASING RATES OF OPIOID MISUSE AND ADDICTION AMONG THEIR FAMILIES. AS THE GLOBAL COVID-19 PANDEMIC CONTINUES TO RAVAGE AMERICA’S LARGEST RESERVATION LEAVING A TRAIL OF LOSS THAT INTRODUCES NEW SHARED TRAUMAS TO THE VULNERABLE AND UNDERSERVED, THE OPIOID CRISIS STANDS POISED TO INTENSIFY EXPONENTIALLY. THE NEED FOR STRATEGIC, COORDINATED EFFORTS TO ADDRESS OPIOIDS ON AMERICA’S TRIBAL LANDS HAS NEVER BEEN GREATER.

RURAL COMMUNITIES OPIOID RESPONSE PROGRAM - PATHWAYS - CAPACITY BUILDERS, INC. (CBI) PROPOSES THE GENERATION HÓZHÓ: BEHAVIORAL HEALTH CAREER PATHWAYS INITIATIVE (GH-BHCPI) TO ADDRESS SEVERE SHORTAGES IN THE BEHAVIORAL HEALTH WORKFORCE ACROSS RURAL TRIBAL-SERVING AREAS OF SAN JUAN AND MCKINLEY COUNTIES, NEW MEXICO, TWO OF THE STATE’S MOST UNDERSERVED REGIONS. SAN JUAN COUNTY HAS A POPULATION OF 120,675, OF WHICH 43% IDENTIFY AS AMERICAN INDIAN, WHILE MCKINLEY COUNTY IS 75.1% AMERICAN INDIAN, PREDOMINANTLY NAVAJO AND ZUNI. BOTH COUNTIES ARE HRSA-DESIGNATED RURAL AREAS WITH HIGH POVERTY RATES (35.7% IN MCKINLEY COUNTY), LOW MEDIAN HOUSEHOLD INCOMES, AND LIMITED ACCESS TO BROADBAND AND BEHAVIORAL HEALTH CARE. NEW MEXICO MEETS ONLY 18.99% OF ITS MENTAL HEALTH CARE NEEDS, FAR BELOW THE NATIONAL AVERAGE OF 26.74%. THESE SHORTAGES ARE COMPOUNDED BY HIGH YOUTH RATES OF DEPRESSION (23%) AND SUBSTANCE USE (16%), AND BY THE WIDESPREAD IMPACT OF ADVERSE CHILDHOOD EXPERIENCES (ACES), WHICH AFFECT OVER 27% OF YOUTH STATEWIDE. GH-BHCPI WILL INTRODUCE AT LEAST 200 YOUTH IN GRADES 6–12 TO BEHAVIORAL HEALTH CAREER PATHWAYS THROUGH A CULTURALLY GROUNDED, TRAUMA-INFORMED, AND COMMUNITY-BASED MODEL. THE INITIATIVE IS ANCHORED IN THE DINÉ CONCEPT OF HÓZHÓ, A TRADITIONAL PHILOSOPHY OF WELLNESS, BALANCE, AND INTERCONNECTION, AND IS DESIGNED TO FOSTER HEALING, RESILIENCE, AND LEADERSHIP AMONG YOUTH IN TRIBAL-SERVING RURAL AREAS. OVER A THREE-YEAR PERIOD, GH-BHCPI WILL IMPLEMENT SCHOOL-BASED OUTREACH, PEER MENTORSHIP, DUAL-CREDIT OPPORTUNITIES, AND COMMUNITY HEALTH WORKER (CHW) CERTIFICATION PROGRAMS CO-DEVELOPED WITH TRIBAL COLLEGES. IMPLEMENTATION WILL BE LED BY CBI AND THE NEXT GENERATION BEHAVIORAL HEALTH NETWORK (NGBHN), A REGIONAL CONSORTIUM OF EDUCATION INSTITUTIONS, TRIBAL COLLEGES, BEHAVIORAL HEALTH AGENCIES, AND YOUTH-SERVING ORGANIZATIONS. YEAR 1 WILL FOCUS ON PLANNING ACTIVITIES, INCLUDING MOUS, FOCUS GROUPS WITH YOUTH AND STAKEHOLDERS, CULTURALLY RESPONSIVE CURRICULUM DEVELOPMENT, AND INFRASTRUCTURE SET-UP. YEARS 2 AND 3 WILL INCLUDE FULL-SCALE PROGRAMMING IN SCHOOLS AND COMMUNITY SETTINGS. YOUTH WILL PARTICIPATE IN BEHAVIORAL HEALTH CAREER EXPOSURE, GAIN ACCESS TO CULTURALLY AFFIRMING CURRICULUM ALIGNED WITH STATE EDUCATION STANDARDS, AND LEAD MENTAL HEALTH AWARENESS INITIATIVES THROUGH YOUTH LEADERSHIP COALITIONS (YLCS). STUDENTS WILL RECEIVE MENTORSHIP FROM INDIGENOUS PROFESSIONALS, SUPPORT WITH FINANCIAL AID NAVIGATION, AND EXPOSURE TO CHW, PEER SUPPORT, AND OTHER ENTRY-LEVEL CERTIFICATIONS. THE INITIATIVE ALSO ADDRESSES ACCESS BARRIERS SUCH AS TRANSPORTATION AND BROADBAND LIMITATIONS BY DELIVERING PROGRAMMING IN ACCESSIBLE COMMUNITY HUBS AND OFFERING STIPENDS, PRINTED MATERIALS, AND OFFLINE LEARNING TOOLS. SPECIAL EMPHASIS WILL BE PLACED ON CULTURAL CONTINUITY THROUGH MENTORSHIP, TRADITIONAL STORYTELLING, AND COMMUNITY CEREMONIES THAT BUILD YOUTH CONFIDENCE AND BELONGING. TO ENSURE LONG-TERM SUSTAINABILITY, GH-BHCPI WILL EMBED ITS PROGRAMMING INTO SCHOOL AND COLLEGE SYSTEMS, FORMALIZE MOUS FOR SHARED INVESTMENT, TRAIN YOUTH TO BECOME PEER FACILITATORS, AND DISSEMINATE A BEHAVIORAL HEALTH PATHWAYS TOOLKIT FOR REGIONAL REPLICATION. EVALUATION AND PERFORMANCE REPORTING WILL TRACK ACADEMIC OUTCOMES, LEADERSHIP GROWTH, AND CAREER READINESS, WHILE ALSO MEASURING COLLECTIVE IMPACT ACROSS THE NETWORK. GH-BHCPI OFFERS A COST-EFFECTIVE, CULTURALLY RELEVANT, AND SCALABLE MODEL TO BUILD THE NEXT GENERATION OF BEHAVIORAL HEALTH PROFESSIONALS IN THE REGION.

SOBER TRUTH ON PREVENTING UNDERAGE DRINKING ACT GRANTS FOR THE WESTERN NAVAJO AGENCY REGION - STOP: SOBER TRUTH OF PREVENTING UNDERAGE DRINKING ACT PROGRAM IN THE WESTERN NAVAJO AGENCY REGION CAPACITY BUILDERS, INC., A PRIVATE NOT-FOR-PROFIT AGENCY LOCATED IN FARMINGTON, NM, PROPOSES TO OPERATE THIS STOP PROGRAM IN THE WESTERN NAVAJO AGENCY REGION OF NORTHWESTERN ARIZONA. THE TARGET POPULATION IS THE ESTIMATED 6,124 NAVAJO YOUTHS BETWEEN THE AGES OF 10 AND 19 AND IN A GENERAL SENSE ALL THE ESTIMATED 37,310 NAVAJOS LIVING IN THAT REGION. YOUTHS IN THIS NORTHERN REGION OF ARIZONA IN WHICH THE WESTERN NAVAJO AGENCY IS LOCATED HAVE HIGH RATES OF ALCOHOL USE IN THE PAST MONTH AND THE HIGHEST BINGE ALCOHOL USE IN THE PAST MONTH RATE, OF THE FIVE AREAS STUDIED IN ARIZONA FOR THIS AGE GROUP. IN 2021, AGE SEX ADJUSTED DEATH RATES FOR CHRONIC LIVER DISEASE AND CIRRHOSIS FOR AMERICAN INDIANS IN ARIZONA WERE 6.8 TIMES HIGHER THAN FOR ALL RACES. ALCOHOL ABUSE IS A LONG-STANDING PROBLEM IN THE AREA. CAPACITY BUILDING IN THIS COMMUNITY IS HIGHLY NEEDED DUE TO THIS LONG-STANDING INTRACTABLE PROBLEM AND UNMET NEED FOR CULTURALLY SIGNIFICANT TRADITIONAL ALCOHOL PREVENTION PROGRAMS. THE PROJECT FOCUSES ON EIGHT DIFFERENT REQUIRED ACTIVITIES AND IS BASED ON THE THREE KEY CAPACITY BUILDING APPROACHES OF IMPLEMENTING EVIDENCE-BASED COMMUNITY PROGRAMS, ENHANCING COLLABORATION, COOPERATION, AND COORDINATION AMONG COMMUNITIES, FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL AND TRIBAL GOVERNMENTS, AND CONVENING TOWN HALLS. KEY OBJECTIVES REFLECTIVE OF THE FOCUS ON CULTURALLY SIGNIFICANT TRADITIONAL PREVENTION PROGRAMS ARE: SELECTING AND IMPLEMENTING NAVAJO RELEVANT PROGRAMS IN SCHOOLS AND COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS, DEVELOPING AND IMPLEMENTING ACTION PLANS WITH EXTENSIVE INVOLVEMENT FROM YOUTH AND RELEVANT SECTORS OF THE COMMUNITY, ENHANCING GOVERNMENTAL AGENCY COORDINATION BETWEEN NAVAJO CHAPTERS – WHICH ARE THE NAVAJO NATION GOVERNMENT JURISDICTIONS SIMILAR TO SMALL CITIES OR TOWNS, THE NAVAJO POLICE DEPARTMENT AND THE NAVAJO NATION ADVISORY COUNCIL THROUGH THE DEVELOPMENT AND ADOPTION OF POLICIES DISCOURAGING DRUNK DRIVING AND PROVIDING DIRECT SERVICES TO YOUTH ALREADY AT-RISK THROUGH PROGRAMS LIKE THE “THE HORSE JOURNEY”, AND FOSTERING GRASS-ROOTS PARTICIPATION AT TOWN HALL MEETINGS AT THE 18 WESTERN NAVAJO AGENCY CHAPTERS. THE EIGHT ACTIVITIES INCLUDE A VAST ARRAY OF INFORMATION DISTRIBUTION METHODS AND APPROACHES DESIGNED TO INFLUENCE POSITIVE CHANGE SUCH AS PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENTS, SOCIAL MEDIA CAMPAIGNS, SEMINARS AND PRESENTATIONS AT SCHOOL AND COMMUNITY-BASED ORGANIZATIONS, AND DIRECT PROGRAMMING FOR AT-RISK YOUTH. ESTIMATES OF THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE REACHED OR SERVED ANNUALLY AND FOR THE FOUR-YEAR PERIOD ARE DIFFICULT TO QUANTIFY. ONE PERSPECTIVES SUGGESTS THAT ANNUAL AND FOUR-YEAR TARGETS OF PEOPLE REACHED ARE 25% AND 75% RESPECTIVELY FOR BOTH POPULATION BASED AND DEMOGRAPHICALLY FOCUSED ACTIVITIES AND BASED ON THE ESTIMATED LEVEL OF SUCCESS OF EARLIER STOP PROGRAMS IN ANOTHER NAVAJO REGION. THE EXACT NUMBER OF INDIVIDUALS SERVED DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY WILL BE MEASURED AS A KEY PART OF THE PLANNING AND IMPLEMENTATION PROCESS AND TARGET RATES WILL BE ADJUSTED ACCORDINGLY.
