IN FISCAL YEAR (FY) 2023, DBH SERVED 43,427 INDIVIDUALS. OF THESE INDIVIDUALS, 11,882 (31%) WERE ADULTS AGED 55 OR OLDER, 67% AFRICAN AMERICAN, 3 PERCENT HISPANIC, 2% WHITE, AND 48% MALE. ACCORDING TO THE 2021-2022 SMASHA NATIONAL SURVEY ON DRUG USE AND HEALTH (NSDUH), APPROXIMATELY 26.6 PERCENT OF ADULTS HAVE ANY MENTAL ILLNESS AND 6.4 PERCENT HAVE AN SMI IN DC. DC ALSO HAS THE SECOND-HIGHEST OVERDOSE DEATH RATE IN THE COUNTRY. BETWEEN 2016 AND 2020, 76 PERCENT OF FATAL OPIOID OVERDOSES OCCURRING IN ADULTS AGED 40-69, AND 84 PERCENT OF THESE DEATHS WERE AFRICAN AMERICANS AND 72 PERCENT WERE MALES. DBH SERVES APPROXIMATELY 2,000 ADULTS ANNUALLY IN ITS ASSERTIVE COMMUNITY TREATMENT (ACT) PROGRAM, WITH 100 PERCENT OF ENROLLEES LIVING WITH AN SMI AND APPROXIMATELY 80 PERCENT ALSO LIVING WITH AT LEAST ONE CO-OCCURRING PHYSICAL DISORDER. ADDITIONALLY, 75 PERCENT OF THE 531 INDIVIDUALS CURRENTLY SERVED IN OUR MENTAL HEALTH COMMUNITY RESIDENCE FACILITIES ARE OVER THE AGE OF 55, AND 80 PERCENT OF THEM HAVE SERIOUS CO-MORBID MEDICAL CONDITIONS AND DBH RECEIVES AT LEAST THREE REQUESTS PER WEEK FOR INCREASES IN BED CAPACITY. IN THIS PROJECT, DBH INTENDS TO PARTNER WITH AT LEAST TWO COMMUNITY AGENCIES WHO SERVE THESE UNDERSERVED AND HISTORICALLY MARGINALIZED POPULATIONS, ONE OF WHICH WILL BE A PRIMARY CARE PROVIDER USING THE COLLABORATIVE CARE MODEL AND THE OTHER WILL BE A COMMUNITY BEHAVIORAL HEALTH CLINIC (CCBHC) SUCH AS: (1) FREEDMAN'S MEDICINE, A PRIMARY CARE CENTER CURRENTLY USING THE COLLABORATIVE CARE MODEL AND FOCUSES ON LOW-INCOME OLDER ADULTS AND INDIVIDUALS WITH DISABILITIES AND BEHAVIORAL HEALTH CONDITIONS. FREEDMAN'S MEDICINE INDICATES THAT THE 500 PEOPLE THEY SERVE REFLECT RESOURCE CONSTRAINTS AND THEY ESTIMATE WITH ADDITIONAL FUNDING THEY COULD INCREASE THEIR SERVICE POPULATION TO 2,000 PEOPLE PER YEAR AND COULD MORE EFFECTIVELY ADDRESS THE UNMET NEEDS OF THE COMMUNITY; AND (2) HILLCREST CHILDREN AND FAMILY CENTER (HILLCREST), A DBH-CERTIFIED BEHAVIORAL HEALTH PROVIDER THAT SERVED 1,131 MEDICAID RECIPIENTS INCLUDING 831 ADULTS IN FY23. IN 2023, HILLCREST BECAME A CCBHC AFTER RECEIVING A SAMSHA EXPANSION GRANT TO BUILD UP THE INFRASTRUCTURE NEEDED TO DELIVER FULLY INTEGRATED BEHAVIORAL HEALTH AND PRIMARY CARE SERVICES TO ITS PATIENTS. THE DEPARTMENT WILL USE THE FUNDING SUPPORT FROM THIS GRANT TO SUPPORT FREEDMAN'S MEDICINE AND HILLCREST TO EXPAND THEIR EXISTING INTEGRATED CARE EFFORTS AND REACH MORE PATIENTS IN NEED. IN THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THIS PROJECT, DBH PLANS TO USE A MINIMUM OF THREE EVIDENCE-BASED PRACTICES (EBPS): THE COLLABORATIVE CARE MODEL, ACT, AND MENTAL HEALTH FIRST AID (MHFA). COLLABORATIVE CARE IS A PROVEN STRATEGY TO REDUCE MENTAL HEALTH INEQUITIES AND IMPROVE OUTCOMES FOR RACIAL/ETHNIC MINORITY GROUPS AND OLDER ADULTS. THE PIPBHC GRANT ALIGNS WELL WITH THE ACT MODEL AS ACT PROGRAM PARTICIPANTS HAVE SMI AND OFTEN HAVE ONE OR MULTIPLE CO-OCCURRING CHRONIC MEDICAL CONDITIONS. FINALLY, THIS GRANT COMPLEMENTS THE DISTRICT’S USE OF MHFA, WHICH TRAINS PRIMARY CARE PROVIDERS AND CLINICS ON BEHAVIORAL HEALTH SCREENING, IN PARTICULAR FOR THOSE WHO HAVE OLDER ADULT PATIENTS.

ABSTRACT TITLE: JOINT COOPERATIVE EXTENSION PROGRAMS AT 1862 LAND-GRANT INSTITUTIONS AND UNIVERSITY OF THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA RESEARCHER: THE UNIVERSITY OF THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA (UDC) IS AN URBAN LAND-GRANT UNIVERSITY THAT OFFERS ASSOCIATE, BACCALAUREATE, AND GRADUATE PROGRAMS, CERTIFICATE PROGRAMS AND COMMUNITY OUTREACH PROGRAMS TO LEARNERS OF ALL AGES. THE COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE, URBAN SUSTAINABILITY AND ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCES (CAUSES) EMBODIES THE LAND-GRANT TRADITION OF UDC. WE OFFER CUTTING EDGE ACADEMIC PROGRAMS IN ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE, URBAN SUSTAINABILITY, WATER RESOURCES MANAGEMENT, NUTRITION AND FOOD SCIENCE, URBAN ARCHITECTURE AND COMMUNITY PLANNING. IN ADDITION, WE OFFER A WIDE RANGE OF NON-CREDIT BEARING COMMUNITY OUTREACH PROGRAMS IN THE TRADITION OF THE COOPERATIVE EXTENSION PROGRAMS, A TERM THAT IS NOT WELL KNOWN IN THE URBAN SETTING OF WASHINGTON DC. AS A RESULT, CAUSES REFERS TO ITS COMMUNITY EXTENSION WORK AS 'COMMUNITY OUTREACH' AND 'COMMUNITY EDUCATION' PROGRAMS THAT SERVE INDIVIDUALS AND ORGANIZATIONS IN OUR COMMUNITY AND BEYOND. WITH THE INAUGURATION OF ITS PIONEERING URBAN FOOD HUBS CONCEPT, THE WORK OF CAUSES HAS BECOME MORE COLLABORATIVE AND INTERDISCIPLINARY. TO DATE FIVE URBAN FOOD HUBS ARE IN VARIOUS STAGES OF IMPLEMENTATION AND OUR ULTIMATE GOAL IS TO HAVE AT LEAST ONE URBAN FOOD HUB IN EACH OF THE EIGHT WARDS OF THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA. THE URBAN FOOD HUBS CLEARLY ADVANCE ALL OF THE NIFA OBJECTIVES IN AN URBAN ENVIRONMENT AND PROVIDE A CONCRETE FOCUS OF THE CAUSES MISSION TO "...OFFER RESEARCH BASED ACADEMIC AND COMMUNITY OUTREACH PROGRAMS THAT IMPROVE THE QUALITY OF LIFE AND ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITY FOR PEOPLE AND COMMUNITIES IN THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA, THE NATION AND THE WORLD." UDC LAND-GRANT CENTERS: THERE ARE THREE LAND-GRANT CENTERS THAT PLAN, IMPLEMENT AND ASSESS EXTENSION PROGRAMS TO IMPROVE THE QUALITY OF LIFE OF OUR DISTRICT RESIDENTS AND STRATEGIZES FOR CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT. THE CENTER FOR NUTRITION, DIET AND HEALTH INCLUDES THE FOLLOWING PROGRAMS: NUTRITION EDUCATION THROUGH THE EFNEP AND SNAP-ED PROGRAMS; FOOD SAFETY, FOOD HANDLERS TRAINING AND CERTIFICATION; FOOD DEMONSTRATIONS FOR HEALTHY CHOICES AND LIFESTYLE; AND DIET AND WELLNESS PROGRAM. THE CENTER FOR URBAN AGRICULTURE AND GARDENING EDUCATION ENCOMPASSES THOSE LAND-GRANT PROGRAMS OF CAUSES THAT ARE FOCUSED ON RESEARCH AND COMMUNITY EDUCATION IN URBAN FOOD PRODUCTION, GARDENING, AND URBAN FORESTRY IN CLOSE ALIGNMENT WITH RELATED DISTRICT AGENCIES. THE CENTER FOR SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT FOCUS ON ECONOMIC, SOCIAL, AND ENVIRONMENTAL SUSTAINABILITY, GREEN ENTREPRENEURSHIP, SMALL BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT, GREEN ENERGY, WATER TECHNOLOGY AND GREEN INFRASTRUCTURE. ALL THREE CENTERS HAVE 4-H AND YOUTH DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMS EMBEDDED IN THEM AND WILL ALSO CONTINUE TO PURSUE THE OBJECTIVES OF THE FARM BILL ALONG WITH OR SUSTAINABLE DC PLAN WHICH IS TO MAKE WASHINGTON DC THE GREENEST, HEALTHIEST AND MOST LIVABLE CITY IN THE UNITED STATES. KNOWLEDGE FOR A LIFETIME: WE ARE DEEPLY COMMITTED TO BEING RELEVANT TO THE RESIDENTS OF THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA. GIVEN OUR THREE-PRONGED APPROACH OF TEACHING, RESEARCH AND COMMUNITY OUTREACH, WE SEEK TO MAKE A MEASURABLE, POSITIVE DIFFERENCE IN THE LIVES OF PEOPLE RIGHT WHERE THEY LIVE AND WORK. AS A RESULT, OUR PROGRAMS FOCUS ON IMPROVING ECONOMIC CONDITIONS, SOCIAL AND CULTURAL CIRCUMSTANCES, AND THE HEALTH OF PEOPLE AND THEIR LIVING ENVIRONMENTS. YET OUR COMMUNITY-BASED PROGRAMS ARE MORE THAN LOCAL. THEY ALSO SERVE AS MODELS FOR RELEVANT LEARNING FAR BEYOND OUR REGION.

PROPOSAL ABSTRACT THE WASHINGTON D.C. METROPOLITAN POLICE DEPARTMENT (MPDC) PROPOSES TO IMPLEMENT THE 2023 MPDC SAKI GRANT PROJECT UNDER PURPOSE AREA 4. THE PURPOSE IS TO SUPPORT THE CONTINUED INVESTIGATION AND RESOLUTION OF UNSOLVED SEXUAL ASSAULT-RELATED CASES THROUGH ADVANCED DNA TESTING AND INVESTIGATIVE TOOLS. MPDC RECEIVED A SAKI GRANT UNDER PURPOSE AREA 4 IN 2019 AND HAS SUBMITTED OVER 100 CASES FOR NEW AND ADVANCED TESTING, YIELDING SIGNIFICANT SUCCESSES. MPDC IS EAGER TO CONTINUE THIS MISSION FOR 2024 AND BEYOND. THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA HAS NO KNOWN BACKLOG OF UNSUBMITTED SEXUAL ASSAULT KITS (SAKS). NEVERTHELESS, MPDC HAS HUNDREDS OF UNSOLVED SEXUAL ASSAULT-RELATED CASES WITH SAKS AND OTHER EVIDENCE WHERE ADDITIONAL TESTING COULD YIELD LEADS. MPDC ALSO HAS NUMEROUS CASES WITH DNA PROFILES IN CODIS WITH NO SUSPECT HITS. WITH THE 2019 GRANT, PROJECT ACTIVITIES YIELDED DOZENS OF DNA PROFILES THAT WERE ENTERED INTO CODIS AND PUBLIC GENEALOGY DATABASES. IN ADDITION, 2019 GRANT PROJECT ACTIVITIES LED TO CASE-TO-CASE LINKS AND THE IDENTIFICATION AND ARREST OF OFFENDERS INCLUDING SERIAL OFFENDERS. MPDC PROJECT ACTIVITIES FOR THE 2023 SAKI GRANT WILL INCLUDE CONTINUING TO: INVENTORY CASES FOR FURTHER TESTING, INVESTIGATION AND SOLVABILITY; INVENTORY CASES ELIGIBLE FOR FORENSIC GENETIC GENEALOGY TESTING; SUBMIT EVIDENCE FOR TESTING; FOLLOW ALL GENERATED LEADS; INTERVIEW VICTIMS, WITNESSES AND SUSPECTS; AND TRAVEL WHERE NECESSARY FOR FURTHER INVESTIGATION. EXPECTED OUTCOMES INCLUDE GENERATING LEADS, IDENTIFYING SUSPECTS AND PERSONS OF INTEREST, IDENTIFYING SERIAL OFFENDERS AND LINKING CASES TO EACH OTHER. EXPECTED OUTCOMES WILL ALSO INCLUDE CLOSING CASES ADMINISTRATIVELY OR WITH ARREST AND THEN BUILDING AND STRENGTHENING THESE CASES FOR SUCCESSFUL PROSECUTION. SUBRECIPIENT ACTIVITIES INCLUDE APPLYING THEIR EXPERTISE IN ADVANCED DNA METHODOLOGIES TO COLLABORATE ON EVIDENCE TESTING PLANS. THEIR ACTIVITIES WILL ALSO INCLUDE LOCATING, PACKAGING AND OUTSOURCING EVIDENCE FOR TESTING AND FACILITATING CODIS ENTRY. THE INTENDED BENEFICIARIES INCLUDE THE VICTIMS AND THEIR LOVED ONES AS WELL AS THE COMMUNITY AS A WHOLE. WHILE THE SERVICE AREA IS THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA, THE EXPECTED OUTCOMES WILL BENEFIT THE SAFETY OF THE D.C. REGION AS MANY PERPETRATORS OFFEND ACROSS JURISDICTIONAL LINES. WITH THE COST OF ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY PLATFORMS AND THE DC DEPARTMENT OF FORENSIC SCIENCES (DFS)S LIMITED CAPACITY TO UTILIZE THESE PLATFORMS, GRANT FUNDS ARE ESSENTIAL TO ASSIST MPDC IN RESOLVING THESE CASES. MPDC AND ITS MULTIDISCIPLINARY WORKING GROUP PARTNERS ARE STRONGLY COMMITTED TO UTILIZING A TRAUMA-INFORMED, VICTIM-CENTERED MODEL IN SOLVING THESE EGREGIOUS CRIMES, SEEKING JUSTICE FOR VICTIMS, HOLDING OFFENDERS ACCOUNTABLE AND MAKING THE COMMUNITY SAFER.

CAREER EXPLORING THE ROLE OF STEM FACULTY BELIEFS & CLASSROOM CULTURE ON UNDERGRADUATE MINORITIZED STUDENTS EXPERIENCES ACHIEVEMENT AND PERSISTENCE IN STEM -THE FACULTY EARLY CAREER DEVELOPMENT (CAREER) PROGRAM IS A NATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATION-WIDE ACTIVITY THAT OFFERS AWARDS IN SUPPORT OF EARLY-CAREER FACULTY WHO HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO SERVE AS ACADEMIC ROLE MODELS IN RESEARCH AND EDUCATION, TO LEAD ADVANCES IN THE MISSION OF THEIR DEPARTMENT OR ORGANIZATION, AND TO BUILD A FOUNDATION FOR A LIFETIME OF LEADERSHIP IN INTEGRATING EDUCATION AND RESEARCH. THIS CAREER PROJECT SEEKS TO GENERATE NEW KNOWLEDGE ABOUT THE APPROACHES AND STRATEGIES OF SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY, ENGINEERING, AND MATHEMATICS (STEM) PROFESSORS AT HISTORICALLY BLACK COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES (HBCUS) AND HOW THEY SUCCESSFULLY CULTIVATE GROWTH MINDSET CLASSROOM CULTURES, AS EXPERIENCED BY THEIR STUDENTS, TO CREATE MORE EQUITABLE LEARNING ENVIRONMENTS FOR MINORITIZED STUDENTS. NEGATIVE STEREOTYPES ABOUT WHO CAN AND CANNOT SUCCEED IN STEM ADVERSELY AFFECT PROGRESS TOWARD THE U.S. GOAL OF DEVELOPING A HIGH QUALITY, DIVERSE STEM WORKFORCE. STEM INTEREST AND PERSISTENCE AMONGST MINORITIZED STUDENTS (E.G., BLACK, LATINX, NATIVE AMERICAN), IN PARTICULAR, ARE ALARMINGLY LOWER WHEN STUDENTS ENCOUNTER NEGATIVE STEREOTYPES AND INEQUITABLE EDUCATIONAL ENVIRONMENTS. HIGHER EDUCATION FACULTY HAVE THE POWER AND AUTONOMY TO DIRECTLY INFLUENCE STEM LEARNING ENVIRONMENTS AND BRING ABOUT THE CHANGES NECESSARY TO SUPPORT STUDENTS? PARTICIPATION AND PERSISTENCE IN STEM FIELDS, BUT LITTLE IS KNOWN ABOUT HOW PROFESSORS? BELIEFS ARE COMMUNICATED AND HOW THEY CAN CULTIVATE A GROWTH MINDSET CLASSROOM CULTURE. FURTHERMORE, THERE IS A NEED FOR EXPLORATION OF HOW BLACK STUDENTS EXPERIENCE MINDSETS IN STEM CLASSROOMS WHERE THEY ARE NOT THE RACIAL MINORITY. GROWTH MINDSET IS BELIEF IN THE MALLEABILITY OF INTELLIGENCE AND ABILITIES. THIS CAREER INQUIRY USES A SEQUENTIAL EXPLANATORY MIXED-METHODS APPROACH TO EXAMINE THE RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN STEM FACULTY BELIEFS, CLASSROOM CULTURE, AND THE EXPERIENCES, ACHIEVEMENT, AND PERSISTENCE OF BLACK STUDENTS AT HBCUS. THE PROJECT STUDIES HBCU PROFESSORS OF STEM INTRODUCTORY COURSES AND THEIR STUDENTS TO INVESTIGATE BELIEFS AND PEDAGOGICAL PRACTICES, PERCEPTIONS OF CLASSROOM CULTURE, AND STEM ENGAGEMENT, PERSISTENCE, AND ACHIEVEMENT. CLASSROOM OBSERVATIONS WILL ENABLE INVESTIGATION OF THE PRESENCE OF MINDSET MESSAGES AND CLIMATE. THIS WORK INTEGRATES RESEARCH AND EDUCATION TO GENERATE NEW KNOWLEDGE AND EXPLANATIONS ABOUT HOW TO CULTIVATE GROWTH MINDSET CLASSROOM CULTURES AND THE ASSOCIATED IMPACT ON MINORITIZED STUDENTS IN STEM. FINDINGS WILL INFORM THE DEVELOPMENT OF A WORKSHOP FOR STEM FACULTY, THE CREATION AND IMPLEMENTATION OF A GRADUATE COLLOQUIUM TO SUPPORT AND PREPARE FUTURE STEM FACULTY AND THE DEVELOPMENT OF COURSE MODULES, CASE STUDIES AND PRESENTATIONS FOR BROAD IMPACT. THIS PROJECT IS FUNDED BY THE HISTORICALLY BLACK COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES ?
