Trial Design

3Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: LHW stepped care and task shiftingExperimental Treatment3 Interventions
LHW conduct activities of prior arms but in addition, they may provide specific components of mental health care (task-shifting), providing components of basic evidence-based treatments to patients with non-complex needs, and addressing other syndemic health and social conditions.
Group II: LHW as outreach agents/navigatorsExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Conduct outreach activities with people in the community who are hard to reach and with limited access to health care, conduct screening for symptoms of mental illnesses, encourage and refer individuals at-risk, suspected of having, or affected by mental health issues for further triage.
Group III: LHW as navigators and auxiliary to careExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
LHW continue conducting outreach and referral activities but in addition, LHW are more involved in their care. They arrange consultations, introduce the patient to the clinical team via a "warm hand-off" and assist in scheduling a follow -up visit, reviews the care plan with the patient and help reduce patient and system barriers impeding psychological well-being, support patients in achieving management goals; help patients address barriers through education, referral, and navigation to ancillary community services. They have frequent contact with the patient.
