New program aims to prevent suicide in LGBTQ+ teens
NCT ID NCT05922670
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested a suicide prevention program called BH-Works, adapted for LGBTQ+ youth who often face barriers to mental health care. Researchers worked with two LGBTQ community organizations to see if the program helped connect at-risk youth to behavioral health services. The study was terminated early, but it aimed to improve referrals, caregiver involvement, and program satisfaction.
