e-Connect for Suicide Risk in Justice-Involved Youth
This study is testing a new service called e-Connect, which aims to help identify and connect justice-involved youth at risk for suicide with mental health services. The e-Connect system will train probation staff, use a screening tool, and develop a mobile app to help with referrals. The goal is to improve how quickly and effectively these youth receive mental health treatment. The study is looking for probation officers, aged 21-70, who work with or supervise youth. The main way they'll measure success is by tracking how many youth start behavioral health treatment, which will be checked monthly over several years. The current status of this study is unclear.
