RECRUITING

Leveraging Parents and Peers to Increase Recovery Capital in Emerging Adults

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

Emerging adults (EAs; aged 18-26) are the highest-risk population for poly-substance use (misuse of more than one drug), compared to all other age groups and are the least-served population for substance use services. The overarching purpose of this pilot study is to assess whether an innovative services package, Launch, can reasonably work (is feasible) and whether providers and participants like it (acceptability). Launch works with both EAs and a supportive parent (or parental figure) and delivers peer recovery support services (PRSS) to EAs while helping parents use an effective, evidence-based program called contingency management, adapted for EAs, at home with their EA child. This study will also lay the groundwork for a future large-scale trial of Launch services.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Ages Eligible for Study:18 Years
Sexes Eligible for Study:ALL
Accepts Healthy Volunteers:No
Standard Ages:ADULT, OLDER_ADULT
Inclusion CriteriaExclusion Criteria
  1. * EA (aged 18-26) who reports (1) misuse of opioids and/or stimulants and at least one other substance in the same week during the past 30 days, (2) at least one SU disorder reported by EA or parent as assessed via the DSM-V Checklist, and (3) has a supportive parent willing to be virtually coached to deliver CM-EA. Participating "parents" can include any supportive adult who is in a financially supportive caregiving role for the EA and has the desire and ability to implement the CM-EA program
  1. * Only EAs that present with unstable conditions requiring intensive treatment, such as hospital interventions, will be excluded from the sample. Examples of these conditions include participant reports of active suicidal or homicidal intentions or requests for medically supervised detox services.
