  6. How Did We Do in Our First Year? Measure 2: Communicating the potential of the ‘community’ • Worked with organizations, agencies and national TA providers to share the potential of Community • Worked with NCSL to build a CADRE of state legislators that want to pursue interagency strategies • Accepted an invitation to present to the projects funded by OSDFS and offered connections to the new MH Infrastructure grants: 3 Seed Grants States (MO, OH and MD) are among the awardees • Presented the community strategy to the Systems of Care Projects supported by National Center for Children’s Mental Health at Georgetown

  7. How Did We Do in Our First Year? Measure 3: Using the Community Connections Five Ground Breaking Applications of the Community Connections • SAMSHA Consensus Meeting: Moving From the Youth to the Adult System • Modeled a community meeting to inform an initiative • One representative to the national meeting; many voices in the perspectives share at the meeting • NASDSE/NAPAS Initiative Around Youth with Disabilities in the Juvenile Justice System • Invitations to community members to keep the work connected • Emerging connections as the initiative progresses • CSMHA Critical Issues Meeting Focused on Expanded School Mental Heath and IDEA 2004, attended by states, federal agencies, and the community representatives. Began the relationship with OSDFS • Use the Seed Grant States as faculty to the NCSL CADRE: • NH, MO and OH presented in the first CADRE Meeting • The community will work with NCSL to develop the content for future meeting based on their information needs • Seed Grant States supported each other in applying for OSDFS Infrastructure grants…and it worked!

  8. How Did We Do in Our First Year? Measure 4: Maintain regular communication • Quarterly Community Calls • 2pm and 7pm to accommodate all

  9. How Did We Do in Our First Year? Measure 5: Stimulating the work of the issues focused groups, the practice groups • Issue focused groups did not make significant connections.
