Safety Planning Intervention
Brown and Stanley's Safety Planning Intervention (SPI) is a brief, adjunctive intervention designed to reduce subsequent suicidal behavior in high-risk populations. The core element of SPI is the collaborative development of the Safety Plan, which is a prioritized written list of coping strategies and supports that individuals can use during or preceding suicidal crises. In this study, safety planning will occur during pretrial jail detention, with telephone follow-up in the community to conduct risk assessment, review the Safety Plan, problem-solve obstacles to treatment, and assist with linkage to services.

Standard Care
Standard Care for pretrial jail detainees is assessment of risk and stabilization to the extent possible during their jail detention. No post-release community follow-up is typically provided. This study will augment standard care with regular assessment and emergency referral post-release, as well as provision of a list of community resources.
