Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The six-item CRAFFT will be used to screen teens at our partner clinics for risky AC use. For those that screen in as at-risk and express interest in the study, the teen's case manager will complete an online consent/assent form with the parent and teen that contains contact information for the teen so that investigators can follow up with the teen for surveys and intervention delivery or for providing an informational brochure. When the online consent/assent form is completed, the teen will be sent a personalized link to complete their baseline survey. Upon survey completion, the teen will receive a link that has their electronic gift card payment, and the case manager will be notified that a particular ID has completed the survey. The case manager will be informed by study staff whether to schedule that ID for enhanced usual care (EUC) or the Chat intervention. Investigators expect each teen to be scheduled within 30 days of completing their baseline survey to receive EUC or Chat. The informational brochure for the EUC will be handed to the teen during the visit or securely emailed, and Chat could take place either via a virtual or in-person visit. Whether or not the teen completes EUC or Chat, every teen will be followed by the RAND Survey Research Group to complete their follow-up web-based surveys based on timing of completion of their baseline survey. Teens will receive gift card incentives for completing the 3-month, 6-month, and 12-month surveys. Investigators will begin recruitment in month 9 of the project. Briefly, investigators expect to recruit from study month 9 to month 42 for the baseline survey. Investigators expect the Chat intervention to occur from months 9 to 42 the 3-month follow-up from months 12 to 45, 6-month from months 15 to 48, and the 12-month from months 21 to 53. Out of an anticipated 5,644 clients that our partner clinics will screen, investigators expect approximately 847 (15%) to screen in as at-risk on the CRAFFT and anticipate that approximately 500 (\~60%) will consent into the study.

Study Groups

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

Enhanced Usual Care

When the online consent/assent form is completed, the teen will be sent a personalized link to complete their baseline survey. Upon survey completion, the teen will receive a link that has their electronic gift card payment, and the case manager will be notified that a particular ID has completed the survey. The case manager will be informed by study staff whether to schedule that ID for enhanced usual care (EUC) or the Chat intervention. If they are randomized as EUC, the informational brochure for the EUC will be handed to the teen during the visit or securely emailed to them. Whether the teen completes EUC or Chat, every teen will be followed by the RAND Survey Research Group to complete their paid follow-up web-based surveys based on timing of completion of their baseline survey.

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR
