Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

Newly arriving active duty Soldiers at their first duty assignment are randomized to receive either the Level Up program or a single-session Army bystander intervention (ENGAGE). Level Up is delivered via an online platform and mobile app, includes personalized messages from a trainer and virtual booster sessions, and teaches strengths-based coping and life skills. Participants complete baseline surveys and follow-up surveys at 1, 3, and 6 months to measure suicidal-related behaviors, other harmful behaviors, mental health, job performance, and separation outcomes. The project is conducted at the Fort Hood installation reception center and targets the high-risk transition into first military duty.
