What this research studies

This project aims to develop a digital platform that addresses the social and health-related needs of individuals struggling with substance use disorder (SUD). The platform will provide personalized education and resources to improve well-being and self-efficacy, helping users navigate barriers such as housing instability and food insecurity. By focusing on health engagement through self-reflection and education, the initiative seeks to enhance physical and emotional health, ultimately supporting recovery from SUD. The approach involves formative research and large-scale deployment to ensure accessibility and effectiveness for those in need.

Who could benefit from this research

Good fit: Ideal candidates for this research are individuals with suspected or self-reported substance use disorder who face health-related social needs.

Not a fit: Patients who do not have substance use disorder or do not face significant health-related social needs may not benefit from this research.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this research could empower individuals with substance use disorder to overcome barriers to recovery and improve their overall health and well-being.

How similar studies have performed: Other research has shown success in using digital interventions to support recovery from substance use disorders, indicating that this approach has potential for positive outcomes.
