Project LAUNCH (Linking Actions for Unmet Needs in Children’s Health) is a federally funded initiative focused on supporting the wellness of children from birth through eight years of age. Wellness is defined as a state of positive physical, emotional, social, and behavioral health. The program aims to identify and address mental and behavioral health concerns early—before they develop into more serious challenges. A core component of Project LAUNCH is strengthening the support system surrounding young children, including parents, caregivers, and other adults in their lives.
By promoting mental health, physical health, and social-emotional development, Project LAUNCH emphasizes early identification and timely intervention. Providing training to parents, caregivers, and families equips them to recognize early signs of concern, improving access to appropriate support and fostering positive outcomes for young children.
SAMHSA emphasizes that support services are most effective when delivered by peers – such as parents or caregivers – with lived experiences capable of fostering trust and connection. Parent-led training on mental health topics is particularly effective because they create trust, connection, and a sense of understanding that helps families access needed resources and support.
Project LAUNCH seeks the services of a community-based family-run organization to provide training to parents, caregivers, and/or family members on mental health concerns and diagnoses in children with the goal of identifying concerns early to connect children to resources to support their optimal development. These training courses are intended to be delivered by parents and/or family members with lived experience and who have professional expertise supporting young children and families in Hawaii.Contact PersonTholen, IanEmail ian.tholen@doh.hawaii.gov Phone808-733-9062General CommentsProcurement OfficerIan TholenAttachments HIePRO Scope 2026 Mental Health Parent Education and Training.pdf
