A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This Phase 2 interventional trial compares recovery and engagement outcomes among Black adults who have used opioids or stimulants and are receiving treatment. Participants are randomized to either the original mHealth recovery program (uMAT-R) or the same program with enhanced community engagement. Recruitment occurs through local substance use treatment facilities and recovery services in a Midwestern city. The study aims to see if adding community engagement improves engagement with the mHealth tools and recovery outcomes. English-speaking adults who are U.S. residents are eligible, while those with cognitive impairment are excluded.
