The National Institute of Mental Health awarded Indiana University Indianapolis $667,598 on September 1, 2026, under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242) to conduct a pilot randomized controlled trial evaluating CAMS-4TEENS, an evidence-based suicide-specific treatment adapted for adolescents involved in the juvenile justice system. The award funds two primary research aims. Aim 1 establishes the feasibility and acceptability of a pilot RCT comparing CAMS-4TEENS to enhanced treatment as usual, and assesses changes in the frequency, duration, and severity of suicidal thoughts and behaviors among legally involved youth. Aim 2 evaluates coping skills use—including both general coping strategies and those on a safety plan—as a candidate mechanism of action contributing to reductions in suicidal thoughts and behaviors, using ecological momentary assessment. The trial will recruit participants through an existing NIMH-funded project that screens and refers legally involved youth to community-based behavioral health services across the state. This pilot work is designed to establish the stage for future clinic trials testing CAMS-4TEENS effectiveness in the community-based settings where legally involved youth typically receive care. The award carries a period of performance from September 1, 2026, through August 31, 2030, with place of performance in Indianapolis, Indiana. Indiana University Indianapolis is the recipient organization. This is a project grant, a non-renewable assistance type under the K23 career development mechanism.
