Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This research project uses a Community-Based Participatory Research (CBPR) framework to test the efficacy of a culturally adapted relapse prevention intervention developed collaboratively by community partners from the Fort Peck Indian Reservation in northeastern Montana and research partners from Montana State University. The Indigenous Recovery Planning intervention employs trained Fort Peck community members to deliver manualized intervention content to American Indian adults with substance use disorder (SUD). By increasing access to culturally responsive evidence-based treatment, this research aims to decrease SUD-related health disparities and improve public health outcomes for underserved Native communities locally and nationally.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Treatment Group

Receives Indigenous Recovery Planning (IRP) intervention, which includes 6 weekly group intervention sessions lasting about 2 hours each.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Indigenous Recovery Planning

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

The Indigenous Recovery Planning (IRP) intervention consists of a 6-week group-based intervention. Each of the 6 weekly sessions is delivered by a community member facilitator. Facilitators lead the group through a series of culturally adapted relapse prevention exercises designed to change their substance use.

Focus areas for the 6 sessions are: 1) introduction and goal setting; 2) relapse and recovery; 3) craving, mindfulness, and self-compassion; 4) coping with trauma and stress; 5) enlisting social support for recovery; 6) envisioning and planning for the future.

Waitlist Control Group

Participants in the waitlist control group do not receive the intervention until after treatment group completes the intervention. Outcomes will be compared between the 2 study arms at baseline and at follow-up, at which point the treatment group will have completed the intervention and the waitlist control group will have not yet been exposed to the intervention, thereby serving as the control group.

Group Type NO_INTERVENTION
