$2 Million Grant Awarded to Nationwide Children's Hospital to Increase Access to Trauma Services
Nationwide Children’s Hospital has been awarded a $2 million grant from The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) to increase access to trauma services in Franklin and Licking Counties. The grant is part of SAMHSA’s National Child Traumatic Stress Initiative. The goal of the initiative is to transform mental health care for children and adolescents affected by trauma by improving the quality of community-based trauma treatment and increasing access to effective trauma-focused interventions.
The Center for Family Safety and Healing at Nationwide Children’s Hospital will partner with the Early Childhood Mental Health (ECMH) program and Clinical Medical Social Work team, both at Nationwide Children’s, as well as Ethiopian Tewahedo Social Services (ETSS), CelebrateOne, and community behavioral health agencies to provide regional services and national expertise. Increased access to evidence-based treatments, including Child Parent Psychotherapy (CPP), Perinatal Child Parent Psychotherapy (P-CPP) and Child and Family Traumatic Stress Intervention (CFTSI), is a key objective of the project.
