Sponsor's own description

Financial hardship is an important risk factor for suicide. However, there are no evidence-based interventions to help individuals at risk for suicide to improve their financial situation. The intervention will support participants to address their financial difficulties (e.g., indebtedness, inability to meet basic needs) by coaching them to develop key financial management skills (e.g., budgeting, debt management), create a financial wellness action plan, map and activate their social networks, and connecting them with community-based financial supports (e.g., free financial counseling, publicly funded housing and food supports). The intervention will be facilitated by trained peer coaches. The intervention will consist of three phases: (1) intensive; (2) intermediate; and (3) follow-up. The 6-week intensive phase will consist of 6 weekly group sessions and 4 one-on-one coaching sessions to navigate financial resources. The intermediate phase will consist of 3 biweekly group sessions, and either 3 biweekly or 2 monthly one-on-one coaching sessions, based on participant preference. The follow-up phase will offer 3 monthly group sessions, and either 3 monthly or 6 biweekly one-on-one coaching sessions based on participant preference. Group and one-on-one coaching sessions will be conducted remotely via a HIPAA-compliant videoconferencing platform. This study will consist of five steps: (1) obtaining input from stakeholders to develop the intervention; (2) piloting it with a small sample of participants (n=10); (3) using this information to revise the intervention; (4) testing it in a randomized controlled trial with individuals experiencing financial hardship and suicide risk (n=96); and (5) finalizing the intervention manual.
