trainer program to educate, train, and prepare jail and prison staff so they are equipped to appropriately interact with people in a carceral setting who have mental illness (MI) and intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD). This training should be developed by an institution of higher education or non-profit, for profit or tribal in conjunction with health care and corrections professionals to ensure a multidisciplinary approach. The training must focus on understanding behavioral health, including MI and substance use disorders, IDD, developing empathy, navigating community resources, and de-escalation skills and practical application training of those skills in a trauma-informed manner for all staff working in prisons and jails. The centerpiece of this training must be a 40-hour CIT train-the-trainer program.

This grant provides funding to support arts education initiatives for disadvantaged students and those with disabilities, focusing on professional development for educators and partnerships with cultural organizations.

Synopsis: NOFO # DD24-0051 solicits non-research, cooperative agreement applications to conduct population-based surveillance of congenital heart defects (CHD) to describe health outcomes including health equity, with the goal of identifying opportunities to improve the health of all people living with CHD. This project will involve a required component (A) and an optional component (B). The population included in this surveillance activity can be an entire state or a region within a state. Individuals with CHD should be identified through existing data sources including the jurisdiction birth defects surveillance system, electronic health records, administrative data (e.g., Medicaid/Medicare, hospital discharge), or other sources available to funding recipients. Background: Congenital heart defects (CHD) affect about 1% of all births in the United States, and are a leading cause of birth defect-associated infant mortality, morbidity, and healthcare costs. Improvements in early detection and treatment of CHD and consequently in survival have resulted in many people, including those affected by a severe CHD, living into adolescence and adulthood. An estimated two million persons in the U.S. are living with a CHD, including over one million adults; about 12% of these affected adults have a severe CHD. Most current efforts to conduct population-based surveillance of CHD have focused on monitoring newborns. However, little data exist on the descriptive epidemiology of CHD beyond early childhood in the U.S. Despite the public health burden, the lack of population-based surveillance precludes reliable data on people with CHD, their survival, healthcare utilization, and characteristics associated with long-term outcomes. Through this surveillance activity, these data will be assessed, enabling and informing efforts to improve the health and well-being of people with CHD. Objectives: Component A objectives include: (1) assess survival, comorbidities, healthcare utilization during the period 2021-2023, and characteristics associated with long-term outcomes among people with CHD; (2) assess health equity among people with CHD; (3) examine state and national healthcare policies that have an impact on people with CHD; (4) examine COVID-19 and related data such as health care utilization during the pandemic among people with CHD; and (5) work with local/state partners to use site-specific CHD data. Component B objectives include: (1) develop and refine a machine learning algorithm for the surveillance data collected through Component A; and (2) apply this machine learning algorithm to data collected from all recipients funded through Component A.

Fiscal Year 2024 Key Objectives Application proposals must include at least one of the following three objectives identified below. Proposals may contain more than one objective. As noted in Section 4, applicants must map their proposed activities and indicators measuring success to the objective(s) using the Activities/Indicators Tracker. If awarded, grantees will be required to use the FNS-908 Performance Progress Report to report on progress towards activities that align with the required objective(s) listed on the Activities/Indicators Tracker. Carefully considering proposed activities and indicators will prepare grantees for their performance progress reporting requirements if awarded. The project examples aligned with each objective listed below are only suggestions. A PTIG project may assist State agencies in making investments in systems to improve efficiency, provide excellent customer service, and meet Federal standards as they face unprecedented operational challenges. FNS welcomes other projects that support these objectives and encourages applicants to propose innovative ideas to solve both common and unique problems associated with SNAP application and eligibility processes. 1. Modernize SNAP customer service and client communication to improve accessibility, transparency, and responsiveness in processing applications and determining eligibility. 2. Improve administrative infrastructure and day-to-day SNAP operations in processing applications and determining eligibility. 3. Invest in technology and systems to encourage cross collaboration and cross enrollment between SNAP and other Federal, State, and local assistance programs. Please read the full announcement for additional details.
