Summary

This study tests whether giving primary care clinics extra coaching and support helps them better use a suicide prevention program for youth ages 12-24. 360 participants will be split into two groups: one gets basic training, the other gets training plus 6 months of hands-on coaching. Researchers will track how often clinics screen for suicide risk and whether coached clinics see fewer suicide attempts and better mental health follow-up.
