Brief Summary
Crisis stabilization centers (CSCs) provide a less costly and more comfortable alternative to Emergency Department care for individuals with suicidal crises. With demand for crisis alternatives growing, effective interventions that fit the unique workflows and workforce of CSCs are needed to realize their life-saving potential. To address this need, the investigators will adapt, and pilot test the effectiveness of an interpersonally enhanced recovery and follow-up intervention delivered during and after admissions acute suicidal crises.

Study Arms (2)
THRIVE + Discharge / Safety Planning
EXPERIMENTALParticipants assigned to the intervention condition will receive THRIVE Crisis Recovery and Care Transition Program, which consists of group-based reflections on "giving and belonging" and a plan for community connection and treatment, followed by 3-4 coaching calls to reinforce and troubleshoot the plans.
Discharge / Safety Planning Alone
ACTIVE COMPARATORParticipants assigned to the control condition will receive Discharge/Safety Planning as it is practiced by Connections Health Solutions per industry best practices.
Interventions
THRIVE is an interpersonally focused recovery and care transition program. THRIVE (previously called "RELATE" in our SAMHSA grants) involves engaging a person during and following acute suicidal crisis in a sequence of interpersonally focused therapeutic tasks. The purpose of THRIVE is to help CSC guests re-build connections and "contribute" to the world in ways they find personally meaningful, while also transitioning safely to outpatient, community-based care. THRIVE involves a Belonging and Giving Reflections Group while at the CSC, followed by a 4-week, phone-based, recovery and care transition series of coaching calls.
* A written safety plan completed with the person * Mental health appointment scheduled within seven days * One phone follow-up call within 30 days
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Admission to CSC with suicidal crisis, as defined by active suicide ideation ascertained by the Columbia Suicide-Severity Rating scale, which the sites already routinely administer.
- Ability and willingness to provide information for and permission to contact one person in case of emergency or inability to reach the participant for follow-up
You may not qualify if:
- Under age 18.
- Inability to communicate with the researcher in English.
- Inability to access a phone to participate in phone follow-up program.

Data Sharing
- IPD Sharing
- Will share
- Shared Documents
- STUDY PROTOCOL, SAP, ICF, CSR, ANALYTIC CODE
- Time Frame
- The research community will have access to data when the award ends. As required by NDA, studies will also be created that contain the data used for every publication. Those studies will be shared when the pre-print is available. NDA studies have digital object identifiers (DOI) to aid in findability. We will include that DOI in relevant publications. NDA will make decisions about how long to preserve the data, but that data archive has not deleted any deposited data up to now.
- Access Criteria
- To request access of the data, researchers will use the standard processes at NDA, and the NDA Data Access Committee will decide which requests to grant. The standard NDA data access process allows access for one year and is renewable. The NDA GUID tool allows researchers to aggregate data from the same research participant without different laboratories having to share personally identifiable information about that research participant. The NDA data dictionaries do not permit personally identifiable information to be shared. NDA maintains a Certificate of Confidentiality.
The final dataset that we will share will include self-reported demographic and behavioral data from assessments with subjects as described in the Research Strategy section of this application. All data will be de-identified prior to receipt by the repository, but the information needed to generate a global unique identifier for the NIMH Data Archive (NDA) will be collected for each subject. Sufficient data from this project will be preserved to enable sharing via NDA. Data will be of sufficient quality to validate and replicate research findings described in the Aims.
