Brief Summary
This study compares the effectiveness of a program to detect and manage suicide risk among American-Indian and Alaska Native (AI/AN) youth. Half of the participants will receive caring text messages to reduce suicidal thoughts, attempts, and hospitalizations and to increase engagement, social connectedness, and resilience in at-risk youth. The other half will receive usual care that does not include the caring text m...Show More
Detailed Description
The study, "Suicide in Urban Natives: Detection and Networks to Combat Events," builds on Screening, Brief Intervention and Referral to treatment (SBIRT), carried out through the primary care setting, to detect and manage suicide risk.

Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome MeasureMeasure DescriptionTime Frame
Change in Suicidal Ideation
The 15-item Suicidal Ideation Questionnaire Jr. assesses frequency of suicidal thoughts in the past month. Item content ranges from general thoughts of death and wishes that one were dead to specific thoughts of self-injurious behavior. Responses are on a 7-point scale ranging from never to almost daily. Items are summed for a total score (range 0-90).
Baseline, 6 months, 12 months
Change in Self-Reported Suicide Attempts
The investigators will use the interviewer-administered Suicide Attempt and Self-Injury Count to assess the method, intent, treatment received, and lethality for all suicide attempts over the respondent's lifetime.
Baseline, 6 months, 12 months
Change in Hospitalizations and Behavioral Health Treatment
The investigators will assess self-reported hospitalizations over the previous 12 months with a measure of health service use previously applied to AI/ANs. It captures information on inpatient and outpatient medical care, emergency room visits, and use of traditional practices.
Baseline, 6 months, 12 months
Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome MeasureMeasure DescriptionTime Frame
Change in Social Connectedness
The investigators will assess social connectedness with the Interpersonal Needs Questionnaire, a validated measure of feelings of connectedness to others and of being a burden on others.
Baseline, 6 months, 12 months
SBIRT Retention and Uptake of Referral to Therapy
Retention will be measured as binary indicators of complete participation in the appropriate level of intervention determined during the initial in-person session with the behavioral therapist before enrollment in the study, and as uptake of therapy services for people who are referred to this level of care. For each participant, we will create a 3-category indicator of retention (full, partial, none).
