Summary

The purpose of this study is exploring a theoretically guided intervention, Cornerstone, which provides system 'boundary-spanning' services, including therapeutic services and mentorship, to transition-age youth with mental disorders. Cornerstone is designed to improve mental health service engagement and outcomes. The study uses a mixed methods approach to refine Cornerstone, and a hybrid design examining feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary impact with a randomized trial, alongside implementation.

Conditions

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Treatment As Usual

Participants in the TAU arm will be assigned to standard care at our partnering mental health agency. These clients are free to attend one-on-one counseling or any other services available at the clinic or elsewhere to address mental health challenges.

BEHAVIORAL

Cornerstone

Participants in the experimental arm will be assigned a Transition Facilitator, a clinician with whom the client will meet one-on-one, and will be asked to attend once-a-week groups with other transition age youth. The groups will focus on issues relevant to successful transition to independent adulthood including stress and anger management and healthy relationships.
