Timely and Adaptive Strategies to Optimize Suicide Prevention Interventions

Therapeutic interventions are now being applied in ways that may enhance timely and tailored strategies to address suicide risk. This approach requires ready access to end-user data that informs proactive intervention strategies. This webinar will consider 1) which data sources are best equipped to inform intervention strategies, 2) which intervention aspects should involve tailoring strategies vs. simpler approaches that may be just as effective, and 3) how such approaches can be incorporated into providers’ workflows within a health care setting. This webinar will convene experts in areas such as passive and active data collection strategies, measurement of social contexts associated with suicide risk, methodological considerations for Just-in-Time Adaptive Interventions (JITAI) studies and integrating adaptive suicide prevention interventions into healthcare systems. Through discussions of these issues, this webinar will highlight key considerations for developing and testing JITAIs for suicide prevention.
