This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
The RISE study is testing a new way to help teens ages 15-18 after they leave the hospital for mental health treatment. Instead of just giving patients a list of resources to follow up on their own, this program connects them with trained peers and peer support specialists who meet with them virtually to help them stay on track with their medications, understand their recovery, and connect with wellness programs.
Many teens struggle after leaving the hospital and don't follow through with treatment, leading to returning to the hospital or worsening symptoms. This program tries to fill that gap by providing real human support from people who have lived through similar experiences, which research suggests can be powerful for recovery.

If you're selected for the treatment group, you'll participate in 8 weeks of virtual one-on-one and small group meetings with trained peer support specialists — people who have experienced similar mental health challenges. You'll also have access to an online platform with recovery education resources. If you're in the standard care group, you'll receive a phone call check-in from the research team. Either way, you'll complete some simple assessments to help researchers see how you're doing.
