This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This trial is testing a new approach called STEP-Home-SP to help veterans during their first year after leaving the military. The workshop teaches practical skills for managing emotions, solving problems, and adjusting to civilian life through video sessions over 12 weeks. It's designed specifically for veterans who may not feel comfortable with traditional mental health treatment.
The year after leaving the military is especially dangerous for veterans—suicide rates are double during this time compared to active service members. Many struggling veterans avoid VA services, so this trial aims to create an accessible, skills-focused program that meets veterans where they are and prevents them from falling through the cracks.

You would attend video-based group and individual sessions over 12 weeks, learning skills for emotional regulation, problem-solving, and managing your transition to civilian life. You'd also have 4–6 individual one-on-one sessions (about 30 minutes each) to work on personal goals and practice skills. The entire program is delivered online and is designed to fit into your schedule.
