In SFY 21, The UK CTAC will perform the following activities: Complete Secondary Traumatic Stress-Breakthrough Series Collaboration (STS-BSC) for Group #1; implement full STS-BSC for Group #2 in September 2020, and launch STS-BSC for Group #3 in February 2021: Groups will consist of eight teams from the two Department of Community Based Services (DCBS) Service Regions (Cumberland and Two Rivers). The eight teams will be comprised of the following: one team from each of four Community Mental Health Centers (River Valley, LifeSkills, Cumberland River, Adanta), and two teams each from the two DCBS Service Regions (Cumberland and Two Rivers). 1. In collaboration with DBHDID staff, establish the collaborative change framework and scope. 2. Creation of tailored surveys for up to 20 additional sites (up to 10 for Group #2, and up to 10 for Group #3) in SOC V Cohorts One and Two enrolling in the STS-BSC based on individual interviews with each site, and/or consultation with the DBHDID. SOC V Cohort One and Two are comprised of the first two DCBS Service Regions implementing the grant Cumberland and Two Rivers. 3. Administration of the Secondary Traumatic Stress Organizational Assessment (STS-OA) up to 20 jurisdictions within SOC V Cohorts One and Two, and consultation/assistance with communication strategies to increase response rate. 4.
