Study Details

Experimental: reSET Group Participants in this group will use the reSET mobile app for 12 weeks. |
Behavioral: reSET
Participants in this group will use a mobile application that delivers treatment for substance use disorder. 31 required and 30 optional modules. Among many topics covered in the modules, some are substance use management, communication, emotion management, relationship skills, HIV/Sexually Transmitted Infections and triggers for risky sex. In the reSET app you will get the chance to earn rewards for two activities: (1) completing a module and (2) providing a negative urine drug screen in exchange for a motivational or monetary prize. You will have 12 weeks to complete as many modules as you like, about 4 modules per week. Each module takes approximately 10-15 min. Every 3-4 days you will meet with the same study team member to provide a urine drug screen from a place comfortable for you (e.g. home) which will be observed and read via Zoom.
