We had success in South Carolina through a few collaborative / community based partnerships. First, our local United Way created a behavioral health task force in about 2012 that included 40+ public-private partnerships. Second, for various efforts like the community-wide Resilient Schools / Compassionate Schools programs, funding from Duke Endowment and insurance / wellness providers supported the effort, along with private donations and partnerships. We brought sustainability to the initiatives by building a technology platform called Sharpen which provides evidence-based, trauma-informed solutions to target audiences, such as first responders, parents, educators, etc.
I'm happy to share more and strategize research or other collaborations, that could help. rfarrell@sharpenminds.com.
