“…In order to facilitate recruitment, the inclusion criteria for age was expanded from 13-17 years of age in the open trial to 13-19 years of age in the pilot RCT. This expanded age range is consistent with other adolescent-focused interventions (e.g., King, Gipson, & Horwitz, 2014) Of those who completed the screen, 100 (14.1%) met the screening inclusion and exclusion criteria, 68 of whom were aged 13-17 years and 32 were aged 18-19 years. Of the 32 adolescents aged 18-19 years who met inclusion criteria, 2 declined further participation prior to completing the baseline assessment, for a total enrollment of n = 30 participants ages 18-19 years.…”

“…Given that 17.0% of adolescents reported experiencing suicidal ideation in the previous 12 months (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 2014b), programs that target adolescents early in the developmental trajectory of suicide-related behaviors will need to intervene on a broad scale -and thus even a small amount of direct contact from a mental health care professional will add a great deal of strain to an already overburdened system. Suicide prevention programs for adolescents typically have been designed for schools (Isaac et al, 2009;Wyman et al, 2010) and emergency departments (King et al, 2006, King et al, 2009, King, Gipson, & Horwitz, 2014Robinson et al, 2009). Use of school settings and emergency department settings may have been done with the goal of not placing additional demands on the time of mental health practitioners by involving nonmental health personnel in the intervention process.…”
