Preventing Suicide Among Sexual and Gender Diverse Young Adults

This study is looking for young adults, aged 18-24, who identify as sexual and gender diverse and are at risk for suicide. It aims to find the best way to reduce suicidal thoughts. Researchers are comparing two brief support programs, STAT-PC and YST-III, which are designed to help with mental health and problem-solving. These programs will be delivered through telehealth in primary care clinics. To join, you must not have received mental health services (except medication or case management) in the last 90 days, speak English, and screen positive for suicide risk. The study will measure changes in suicidal thoughts over 6 months to see how well the programs work. The study is currently unclear on its recruitment status and plans to enroll 1485 participants.
