RECRUITMENT, STILL
For the housing stability component, the recruitment and assessment processes are described above and summarized in Fig. 
Logic model describing the multi-level, multi-component TRUE HAVEN intervention and measurable outcomesIn addition, a subset of participants in each neighborhood will be asked if they are willing to participate in a focus group to explore implementation outcomes (e.g., satisfaction with the intervention and content delivery, perceived usefulness of the intervention) in the second half of or right after their 6-month enrollment period. These focus groups will include a purposive sample of 20 participants each half year, stratified by gender, race, and age, and each focus group will have no more than 8 participants. We will hold separate focus groups with men and women to understand if and how various factors affect men and women differently. The focus group will be no longer than 90 min in length and participation will be voluntary – the participants will still be able to complete the other parts of the program if they elect not to join the focus group. We will also collect data on implementation outcomes (i.e., adoption, acceptability, feasibility, appropriateness) from the staff members delivering the financial education (i.e., housing counselors; other ULSC staff). This will be in the form of bi-annual assessments programmed in Qualtrics and administered by the program manager of this study in person or over the phone. We will also recruit a sample of staff for focus groups yearly to qualitatively explore these outcomes. Participant dropout and retention will be monitored.The above procedures all refer to the housing assistance part of the intervention. In addition, we will also recruit 50 community members from each neighborhood to be trained in trauma-informed counseling by our partners at Clifford Beers Clinic. We will ask them to track and report the number of people they counsel each week to the program manager. Some of them may be asked to participate in implementer focus groups as well. Outcomes will be assessed in aggregate at the neighborhood level, including how many people were newly referred for mental health care and neighborhood rates of depression, anxiety, and symptoms of post-traumatic stress. Still, we will not be obtaining data directly from the individuals who are counseled or seek mental health care.We train personnel at ULSC in informed consent procedures and confidentiality. All surveys will be administered by an intake specialist at ULSC, who has completed training that includes: (a) basic interviewing techniques, (b) human subject rights, (c) issues of confidentiality and anonymity, and (d) details of the survey instrument. Interviewer training will be a detailed process to ensure that the purposes and sponsorship of the research are explained thoroughly, that questions are phrased in a non-threatening manner, that the procedures for confidentiality are clearly understood, and that interviewers are skilled in communicating these facts to potential respondents. Prior to working on the project, the interviewer will sign an agreement of confidentiality prohibiting any inappropriate use of information as outlined in this proposal, institutional review board (IRB) standards, or the Certificate of Confidentiality.
