Adaptation and Evaluation of the Transdiagnostic Sleep and Circadian Intervention for Adolescents with Suicidal Thoughts and Behaviors Presenting to Primary Care
Summary: As part of the Enhancing Triage and Utilization for Depression and Emergent Suicidality (ETUDES) Center, this R34 project aims to adapt and evaluate the Transdiagnostic Sleep and Circadian (TranS-C or TSC) intervention for adolescents with suicidal thoughts and behaviors presenting to primary care. In addition to adapting the intervention to include blue-blocker glasses and morning re-timer glasses, the intervention is being adapted to ensure its strategies and delivery methods are acceptable to and feasible for delivery in primary care and with adolescents of Black and Latine backgrounds.
