The National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) awarded a $180,360 Project Grant to The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York (Health Sciences Division) under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242) for the period May 11, 2026 through April 30, 2031. The project develops and tests a brief, web-based single-session intervention (SSI) adapted from Interpersonal Psychotherapy for Adolescents (IPT-A) to address adolescent depression. The grant supports design, refinement, and evaluation of a digital intervention deployed through Mental Health America's online depression screening platform, with the goal of increasing treatment accessibility and engagement among adolescents who avoid conventional mental health services due to time constraints, access barriers, or preference for self-management. The research deliverables include: (1) a designed web-based SSI based on pilot data and expert consultation with IPT-A specialists, adolescent advisory boards, and Mental Health America staff; (2) a refined intervention informed by iterative feedback from 15 adolescents with depression recruited through the screening platform; and (3) evaluation results assessing the intervention's acceptability, feasibility, and preliminary efficacy among 200 adolescents who screen positive for depression. The deployment-focused approach prioritizes real-world implementation on the partner organization's widely-used screening website to enhance scalability and reach among the target population.Federal Grant Award Summary
