Summary

This pilot study tests a mobile app designed to reduce suicidal thoughts in teenagers. It will enroll 228 teens aged 13-17 who were recently hospitalized for a suicide attempt or have a history of attempts. Participants will use either the experimental app or a standard information app, and researchers will measure changes in suicidal thinking over 12 weeks.
