- Engage with HRA and partners in a process, using qualitative and quantitative data, to identify mental health needs and priorities, characteristics of the Jobs-Plus population served, and patterns in service use or referral needs. This process will inform the plan for interventions and will include, but not be limited to, contractors gathering information from program leaders, staff, and members.
- With technical assistance provided by HRA and partners (including agency partners and/or technical assistance provider/s), develop a C2C plan for implementing the required interventions that include but may not be limited to screenings, psychoeducation, Mental Health First Aid (MHFA), and Motivational Interviewing (MI). The plan will include but not be limited to details such as: which staff will be trained in which interventions; which staff will be involved in various aspects of service delivery; and screening and referral protocols.
- Develop policies and procedures for the delivery of Jobs-Plus services that are trauma-informed and based on best practices.
- Coordinate initial training for and/or provide training to staff in the selected interventions and in the C2C model, based on the C2C plan.
