Suicide is a leading cause of premature death for autistic individuals. The autism community has identified suicide prevention as a top priority, yet there is a large evidence gap about how best to intervene to reduce suicide risk in autistic individuals. In this webinar, Brenna Maddox will discuss a recently funded Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute (PCORI) community-partnered study comparing the effectiveness of two suicide prevention interventions for autistic adolescents and young adults.
