Summary

Suicide is a leading cause of death among adolescents in the United States and improving access to high quality just-in-time suicide interventions to reduce risk has important public health implications. Integrating such interventions into routinely accessed settings, such as pediatric primary care, holds promise; however, many clinicians in these settings fail to adequately screen or intervene in youth suicidal thoughts and behaviors, representing a key barrier to reducing suicide. The proposed study is a pre-post quasi-experimental pilot feasibility and preliminary efficacy trial of a suicide prevention intervention informed by evidence based interventions including the SAFETY-Acute suicide prevention intervention implemented in 3 pediatric primary care clinics.
