Addressing the behavioral health needs of youths involved in the justice system is key to reducing recidivism risk and preventing long-term system involvement. However, rates of treatment referral and initiation remain low, especially among minoritized youths and boys. The e-Connect System, a digital, clinical decision support system, addresses this problem by increasing rates of behavioral health treatment referral and initiation rates among youths on probation. In this study, we examine whether e-Connect helps improve equity in referral and treatment initiation outcomes. ( 2023;113(12):1267-1270. https://doi.org/10.2105/AJPH.2023.307417).
解决参与司法系统的青少年的心理健康需求是降低累犯风险和防止长期系统参与的关键。然而,治疗转介和启动率仍然很低,特别是在少数族裔青少年和男孩中。电子连接系统是一种数字临床决策支持系统,通过提高缓刑青少年的心理健康治疗转介和启动率来解决这个问题。在这项研究中,我们研究了电子连接系统是否有助于改善转介和治疗启动结果的公平性。(2023;113(12):1267-1270。https://doi.org/10.2105/AJPH.2023.307417)。
