Treatments tested in this trial

  • Behavioral: Screening and Support for Youth (SASY) Multi-component Platform: includes screening, feedback, single session intervention, and resource information

    Behavioral

    Description: Description: Participants who interact with a QR code and express interest in participating will be randomized to receive either: 1) recruitment from a Research Coordinator (standard research staff approach) or 2) recruitment from an EYE for Prevention Youth Researcher. The process of consent, screening, providing feedback, and offering access to a Single Session Intervention and information on additional resources (per scoring on the screening into Tier 1 (low risk/normal), 2 (moderate/at risk), or 3 (high/clinical risk): Tier 1 = screening+feedback; Tier 2=screening+feedback+SSI; Tier 3=screening+feedback+SSI+resource information) will be the same in each group. The randomization is simply changing who provides the process and platform to the participant.
