Study Details

We propose to conduct research on strategies that support the successful scale-up of an evidence-based, suicidal risk and behavior identification and cross-system linkage programs for justice-involved youth (e-Connect), and to rigorously evaluate the implementation activities and associated costs that support that scale-up of e-Connect within 9 Indiana counties. Guided by the GPM and EPIS frameworks, this 4-year study will comprise 3 project phases: (1) Scale-Up Strategy Efforts, focused on preparing for scale-up; (2) e-Connect-scaleup implementation (2a Exploration and Preparation and 2b Implementation and Sustainment); and (3) Scale-Up Effectiveness Trial/Outcome Evaluation. The current project draws on lessons learned from the e-Connect efficacy trial in NYS and research team leadership will serve as External Facilitators to support 9 Local Facilitators to ensure the successful transfer of knowledge, skill and expertise in delivering e-Connect in a new JJ system and geographic context, utilizing implementation strategies to support the more widespread, sustained and rigorous adoption of e-Connect. The study will include a learning community created by External Facilitators for Local Facilitators to provide support, to exchange strategies to handle implementation issues, to develop competencies in facilitation, and to guide implementation throughout the program. The learning community will help Local Facilitators navigate through the implementation stages of the study.
