Abstract

Peer support specialist services aimed at reducing suicide risk are becoming more prominent in professional roles in healthcare systems and community settings. Such services may directly or indirectly contribute to suicide prevention efforts. Despite some evidence suggesting the feasibility and acceptability of this strategy, major research gaps exist regarding effectiveness and sustained implementation success. The National Institute of Mental Health convened a 2-day workshop in February 2024 to inform the field on the state of the science in peer support suicide prevention research. This summary presents several cross-cutting challenges in research on peer support in suicide prevention and how they can be addressed.

期刊介绍： A must for all who need to keep up on the latest findings from both basic research and practical experience in the fields of suicide prevention and crisis intervention! This well-established periodical’s reputation for publishing important articles on suicidology and crisis intervention from around the world is being further enhanced with the move to 6 issues per year (previously 4) in 2010. But over and above its scientific reputation, Crisis also publishes potentially life-saving information for all those involved in crisis intervention and suicide prevention, making it important reading for clinicians, counselors, hotlines, and crisis intervention centers.
