Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Pink Cloud
Participants in this arm will receive access to a mobile application designed to support ongoing recovery from substance and alcohol use disorders. The app includes tools that promote engagement with 12-Step recovery principles and offer self-monitoring features. Participants can integrate the app into their recovery efforts as they see fit throughout the study period.
Pink Cloud
Participants randomized to the Pink Cloud condition will receive a subscription code to access the Pink Cloud mobile application for approximately 365 days. The app includes features such as a searchable database of over 245,000 12-Step meetings (in-person and virtual), a sobriety counter, customizable daily planners, personal inventory tools, and a resentment journal. Participants are encouraged to use the app as they see fit throughout the study period. No prompts or required usage schedules will be imposed; instead, engagement will be self-directed to reflect real-world usage patterns.
Active Control
Participants in this arm will receive access to a website containing curated recovery-related materials. These resources are intended to offer general support for individuals in recovery, without emphasizing any specific program or approach. Participants are free to explore and use the content as they choose.
Active Control
Participants randomized to the control condition will receive a code to access recovery-related resources hosted on a private study website. These materials include links to mutual-help groups, crisis support services, and educational content and treatment options. Participants may access the website at their discretion and engage with the resources as often and in whatever ways they choose. No prompts or required usage schedules will be imposed.
