TY - JOUR PY - 2016// TI - Long-term effects of the family check-up in early adolescence on risk of suicide in early adulthood JO - Suicide and life-threatening behavior A1 - Connell, Arin M.

SP - S15 EP - S22 VL - 46 IS - Suppl 1 N2 - The impact of the Family Check-Up (FCU), a school-based prevention program, as delivered in public secondary schools on suicide risk across adolescence, was examined. Students were randomly assigned to a family-centered intervention (N = 998) in the sixth grade and offered a multilevel intervention that included (1) a universal classroom-based intervention, (2) the FCU (Dishion, Stormshak, & Kavanagh, 2011), and (3) family management treatment. Engagement with the FCU predicted significant reductions in suicide risk across adolescence and early adulthood.
