Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Safety Planning Intervention with Navigation ServicesExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
A patient navigation (PN) intervention for SGM youth/emerging adults designed to target mechanisms (i.e., decreasing thwarted belongingness and increasing suicide-related coping skills) that theoretically underlie suicide. The proposed intervention integrates a single-session, empirically supported, suicide prevention intervention (Safety Planning Intervention; SPI) with PN services (PN+SPI). The patient navigator will deliver the SPI and continue frequent contact for the purpose of providing motivational enhancement, problem-solving, reinforcing coping strategies, and connecting participants to mental health and social support resources (e.g., SGM-specific support groups within the community).
Group II: Safety Planning InterventionActive Control1 Intervention
The Safety Planning Intervention (SPI) is a single-session, empirically supported, suicide prevention intervention. The patient navigator will deliver the SPI.
