Brief Summary
This project addresses the pressing need for tools to identify suicidal thoughts and behaviors in children aged 4-7. Although young children can experience STBs, current screening tools and guidelines often overlook this age group, partly due to challenges in directly assessing young children. The investigators developed a promising caregiver-report screener that identified at-risk children. This study will evaluate the screener's feasibility and effectiveness in clinical settings, gather feedback from clinicians and caregivers, and refine the screening process. The goal is to facilitate early intervention, improving mental health care and outcomes for young children.
