- Description
- This is a combined synopsis/solicitation�for�commercial products�or�commercial services�prepared in accordance with the format in�subpart� 12.6, as supplemented with additional information included in this notice.� Notice to offerors: please ensure you comply with addendum to FAR 52.212-1 (begins on page 59) when submitting your offer.� The Government will accept clarifications for 7 calendar days after the posting of this solicitation. The military�s suicide prevention approach as one that is (though well-intended), over reliant on mental illness models, �warning signs,� screening, and forms and paperwork. Conversely, a public health approach proposes that the most effective way to prevent illness, injury, and mortality involves strategies that focus on the hazardous condition itself. In the US Military that hazard is the firearm where suicide deaths involve firearms 67% of the time � grossly disproportionate from the civilian community. Suicide experts unequivocally agree that the one place where there is decided scientific agreement is putting time and distance between a person in crisis and the potential means of their suicide � this is lethal means reduction. Strategically, lethal means reduction is our most powerful suicide prevention approach, but its use is not widespread for several reasons. That the intended audience (including our leaders) is not buying it is a massive communication problem across our ranks. We must improve in this area by bringing the conversation about suicide risk and firearms into an area of trust � our Soldiers� relationships with their peers and leaders. Research demonstrates that lethal means reduction is effective and translatable with military members when the right message is delivered by the right messenger. To that end, we must endeavor to achieve the support peer to peer intervention models that inspire action with their buddies in crisis, asking to temporarily hold onto their weapons or take protective storage measures �before it�s too late.��The contractor shall provide all personnel, equipment, supplies, facilities, transportation, tools, materials, supervision, and other items and non-personal services necessary to perform Peer Intervention Training on Firearms and Lethal Means Safety.
