Detailed Description
The investigators will conduct an open pilot trial of a behavioral intervention to reduce violent behavior within the OnTrackNY network. The focus of this open pilot is to explore the acceptability and feasibility of the intervention. The study will enroll early intervention service (EIS) clinician - EIS participant dyads. The planned sample size is 3-4 EIS clinicians and 10-16 EIS participants (up to n=16 dyads). This real-world open pilot will provide feedback to help tailor the intervention to the OnTrackNY setting.
