The 2022 TTI provides, on a competitive basis, flexible funding awards to states, the District of Columbia, and the Territories to strengthen innovative programs on the following topics:
- Special Populations: In listening to states and territories discuss their ongoing behavioral health improvement efforts with special populations, this topic was identified to ensure their needs are met in the continued development of 988 and crisis services response.
- Workforce: In listening to states and territories discuss their ongoing workforce challenges throughout the behavioral health system, this topic was identified to support creative strategies and initiatives throughout continued development of 988 and crisis services response.
- Children and Adolescents: In listening to states and territories discuss the ongoing behavioral health needs of children and adolescents, this topic was identified to support developmentally appropriate services that engage families and youth throughout the development of 988 and crisis services response.
