Summary

This study aims to find an effective and sustainable approach to reducing disparities in accessing mental health services for an underserved and growing population group of low-income, racially diverse, homebound older adults. It will compare two aging-service integrated, teledelivered depression treatments for these seniors. One model is short-term problem-solving therapy by licensed clinicians; the second model is self-care management support by trained lay advisors. The findings are expected to create a foundation of information for guiding the implementation of acceptable, effective, and sustainable depression care within widely available aging-service infrastructures.
