RECRUITING

Improving Social Connectedness Through Digital Health to Enhance Recovery from OUD Among the Justice Involved Population

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

People with a history of Opioid Use Disorder and criminal justice involvement are more likely to experience loneliness following release from jail/prison leading to negative outcomes such as treatment dropout and increased substance use. Providing peer recovery support, particularly through a highly accessible, digital health platform, is a potential way to decrease loneliness in this population. The current study seeks to test whether a mobile peer recovery support app, delivered to individuals with a recent history of taking medication for opioid use disorder while in jail/prison, will improve outcomes for this vulnerable population.
