Summary

7th Generation Promise: Indian Youth Suicide Prevention Act of 2009 - Authorizes the Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS), acting through the Indian Health Service, to carry out a demonstration project to award up to five grants to Indian tribes and tribal organizations operating one or more facilities for the provision of telemental health services to Indian youth who: (1) have expressed suicidal ideas; (2) have attempted suicide; or (3) have mental health conditions that increase or could increase the risk of suicide. Sets forth grant application and eligibility requirements. Specifies how the grants are to be used, including permitting tribal organizations to use and promote traditional tribal health care practices. Defines "telemental health" as the use of electronic information and telecommunications technologies to support long-distance mental health care, patient and professional-related education, public health, and health administration. Directs the Secretary, acting through the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), to carry out measures necessary to maximize the efficiency of the process by which Indian tribes and tribal organizations apply for grants under any SAMHSA-administered program. Prohibits any tribal organization from being required to provide a non-federal share of the cost of any activity carried out using a grant provided by SAMHSA. Directs the Secretary to carry out activities to encourage tribal organizations and mental health care providers serving tribal area residents to obtain the services of predoctoral psychology and psychiatry interns.
