About this study

In plain language

This study compares a mobile health program called uMAT-R with the same program plus added community support. It looks at recovery and use of the program among Black adults who have used opioids or stimulants and are seeking substance use treatment.

The sequential trial compares recovery and mHealth engagement outcomes among Black participants who participated in the mHealth intervention uMAT-R or uMAT-R + enhanced community engagement. The mHealth intervention seeks to support people in various stages of recovery who are also seeking other forms of substance use treatment. Participants are recruited from community-based substance use treatment facilities and recovery services. Participants must be adults who have or are currently using opioids and/or stimulants.
