Please note: This is a Sole Source Notification.. The South Carolina Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Disabilities (SCDBHDD) Office of Mental Health (OMG), Suicide Prevention Program (SPP) is intending to Sole Source with R1 Learning who provides training and awareness about suicide prevention efforts in SC. More specifically the Sero Suicide Initiative Grant works with the SC Department of Corrections (SCDC), SC Department of Probation, Parole and Pardon (SC PPP), SC Department of Inpatient Services and Lexington County Community Mental Health Center to bring trainings to staff around suicide prevention. The main intention is to bridge the gap in service once someone is released from SCDC custody either into SC PPP or to inpatient or outpatient treatment. R1 Learning is an education company providing an interactive curriculum that engages and retains individuals in service, increases practitioner effectiveness through workforce training and generates data for measuring outcomes. R1 Learning delivers greater engagement for the leading evidence-based and best practice models and theories for mental health & wellness, substance use disorder, and life skills. This grant faces unique challenges working inside correctional institutions where we are limited to what is allowable. This program will assist the institutions with providing evidence-based therapy like DBT, which can be limiting due to institutional restrictions. It will also allow peer support inmate programs to run groups inside the institutions. This program can also be used among all our Grant Partners to keep the consistency of transition of care. The vendor would provide OMH with an in-person train the trainer training. Provide Discovery Kits for Clinicians, Coaches & Peers. Provide Discovery Kits for Groups. Provide Discovery Licenses and assistance for implementation and integration of the Discovery Licenses.
