THRiVE Pilot for Newly Separated Veterans

This study is testing a program called Transition Health and Resilience through Valued Experiences (THRiVE) for veterans who have recently left the military. The goal is to improve mental health and reduce the risk of suicide during the transition to civilian life. You might be able to join if you are a veteran who separated within the last 12 months or a transitioning service member on terminal leave, are at least 18 years old, and have internet access with a device for video calls. The researchers will be looking at how many people join and stay in the program, and how satisfied they are with it. They also hope to see positive effects on mental health symptoms and factors related to suicidal thoughts. The current recruitment status is unclear.

Study design
This is a single-arm study, meaning everyone receives the THRiVE program. It plans to enroll up to 40 participants.
What's involved
You would participate in six weekly, 90-minute, small-group, peer-led sessions delivered virtually.
Compensation
Not stated in the trial record.
Follow-up
Your satisfaction will be measured at the completion of the THRiVE group, which is an average of 2 months.
