PSCI-SPC is developing and testing a psychotherapy and intensive case management intervention for Veterans who are at risk for suicide, disengaged from VA mental health care, and receiving care in the community. This intervention combines a modular version of Brief Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Suicide Prevention (Bryan & Rudd, 2018) with intensive case management, and coordination of VA care and VA authorized community care. The intensive case management portion of the intervention focuses on providing Veterans with resources to address needs that may contribute to suicidal ideation, such as unemployment or housing resources. VA Community Care coordination assists Veterans in ensuring they receive care needed in the community, while providing intervention for suicide risk. Data collection for this intervention is ongoing.
