well as the Early Detection and Intervention for the Prevention of Psychosis Program (EDIPP) by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation. Applicants should be familiar with this work and lessons learned, including the importance of outreach to secondary mental health services and other community referral partners such as schools, pediatricians. For more information, visit the following links: The CHR-P program is authorized Part E of Title V Section 561 (290-ff) of the Public Health Service Act (as amended), commonly known as the Children’s Mental Health Initiative (CMHI). CMHI supports the development of comprehensive, community-based services that use a systems of care approach for children and youth with serious emotional disturbance (SED). The statutory requirements for CMHI also apply to CHR-P, including eligible applicants and match requirements. The CHR-P program is also authorized by Section 10001 of the 21st Century Cures Act (P.L.114-255). This announcement also addresses Healthy People 2020 Mental Health and Mental Disorders Topic Area HP 2020-MHMD. 2. EXPECTATIONS CHR-P is a SAMHSA services grant program. The CHR-P program is designed to provide state-of-the-science services in real-world community settings. It is expected that the CHR-P program services will (1) be delivered with cultural and linguistic competence and address issues of diversity and disparity; and (2) include consideration of family and youth input to program activities. SAMHSA intends that its services programs result in the delivery of services as soon as possible award. Recipients will be expected to implement a stepped-care model. Under a separate announcement, NIMH encourages partnerships between service grant applicants and mental health researchers to evaluate the effectiveness of stepped-care intervention strategies for youth and young adults at clinical high risk for psychosis. Research studies conducted within the context of the CHR-P program should be proposed through separate NIH research project grant applications. It is anticipated that implementation of the stepped-care model will begin within 6 months after award and that full implementation will occur not later than one year after award. Full implementation of the stepped-care approach will follow a period of hiring, outreach and engagement, protocol development, provider training, and delivering
