SWEEP for Suicidal Thoughts in Adolescents

This study is evaluating a digital program called "Supporting Wellbeing with Everyday Experiences of Peers" (SWEEP) for adolescents who have had suicidal thoughts. The program involves reading or listening to daily stories from peers who have experienced and recovered from suicidal thoughts. Researchers want to see if SWEEP can help reduce suicidal thoughts in young people. You may be able to join if you are 14-18 years old, have had suicidal thoughts in the past month, have major depressive disorder, and own a smartphone. The study aims to enroll 46 participants. The current status of the study is unclear.
