Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
In this study, the Investigators propose to compare the augmented FLL + TAP program to FLL only, and training as usual (n= 50 NCOs and 100 JES per group) with quarterly assessments for up to one year. The Investigators will examine a random selection of deidentified counseling templates to examine the type and frequency of counseling sessions involving acute crisis and behavioral health difficulties, and online ratings from a random selection of JES using validated instruments to assess upstream indicators of behavioral distress and suicide risk and resilience. The Investigators will also conduct qualitative interviews with a random selection of 20% of the NCOs (n = 30) and JES (n = 60) enrolled in the project to provide personalized perspectives of program experiences.
The Investigators propose three aims to guide this research. (1) Collaborate with Idaho ARNG stakeholders to integrate TAP into FLL programming via: a) development and refinement of TAP training materials, b) building templated counseling statements that align with FLL and TAP, and c) education of Idaho ARNG training cadre in the delivery of TAP. (2) Evaluate fidelity, feasibility, and acceptability of FLL and FLL + TAP through a mixed methods approach of qualitative interviews with FLLs and JESs and evaluation of data from templated counseling sessions. (3) Examine the impact of FLL+TAP versus FLL versus training as usual on unit morale, cohesion, and general functioning.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
FLL + TAP
This will be a 1-day initial training that incorporates 12 leadership meetings, delivered during monthly drill weekends, and the FLLs will discuss program feasibility and acceptability with the program leadership. In addition to the standard FLL training, this group will learn about the Total Health Action Plan (TAP) and how to deploy it with their soldiers. The Investigators will measure fidelity of TAP delivery, soldier engagement and satisfaction rates, and whether NCOs are more responsive to soldiers reporting problems.
Crisis Intervention - The First Line Leaders (FLL) program will utilize templated guides developed with stakeholders from the Idaho Army National Guard (ARNG), known as the Total Health Action Plan (T
The Investigators are developing training programs for soldiers and leaders to enhance their communication skills, problem-solving abilities, and approachability. They will be randomized to one of three different groups.
FLL
This is the existing 1-day initial training that incorporates 12 leadership meetings, delivered during monthly drill weekends currently being delivered by the Idaho Army National Guard. FLLs will discuss program feasibility and acceptability with the program leadership.

The Investigators are developing training programs for soldiers and leaders to enhance their communication skills, problem-solving abilities, and approachability. They will be randomized to one of three different groups.
No FLL
Participants assigned to this condition will receive training as usual and have not been assigned FLL training by the Idaho Army National Guard.
