We extracted psychosocial assessment responses, Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9) scores, and mental health referral information for patients seen by the mobile medical unit in 2022 and examined rates and predictors of depression and referral to mental health services.<i>Results:</i> Of the 326 patients who completed the psychosocial assessment, one in five had moderate to severe depression symptoms based on PHQ-9 scores. Factors associated with referral to mental healthcare included female gender identity, LGBTQ+ identity, and several factors from the psychosocial assessment.

Acceptability and satisfaction were examined among study participants and clinicians.<i>Method:</i> Between March 2017 and March 2019, 13 U.S. sites enrolled YWH, aged 12-24, diagnosed with nonpsychotic depression. Sites were randomised to either COMB-R (CBT by a therapist and licensed prescriber) or ESC (standard psychotherapy and medication management).
