Atlas Analysis
A strong statewide school-linked behavioral-health opportunity because OMH will make one five-year award for implementation of the evidence-based Sources of Strength youth suicide-prevention model in grades 9-12. The selected organization must onboard at least five new secondary schools annually, train adult advisors and student peer leaders through certified trainers, provide continuing technical assistance, support safe referral protocols for students at suicide risk, maintain program fidelity, support schools trained during the prior three years, and report statewide implementation data. The award totals $801,130, or $160,226 annually. Atlas Opportunity Score 92/100. N9+ Direct Vendor Fit 5/100 because the verified scope is suicide-prevention training, school licensing, technical assistance and implementation support rather than telehealth or connected clinical examination technology.
