Suicide is an often-overlooked manifestation of violence among African American youth that has become more prevalent in the last 2 decades. This article reports on the process used to culturally adapt a cognitive-behavioral coping with stress prevention intervention for African American adolescents. We implemented this adapted school-based suicide prevention intervention with 758 African American 9th-, 10th-, and 11th-grade students at 4 high schools in a large midwestern city. The findings presented are preliminary. The adolescents in this sample endorsed high levels of suicide risk, with females endorsing significantly more suicide risk than males. Those receiving the prevention intervention evidenced an 86% relative suicide risk reduction compared with the standard care control participants. The presented model of adaptation and resulting culturally grounded suicide prevention intervention significantly reduced suicide risk among African American adolescents. Clinical, research, and policy implications are discussed.
