This trial is for women over 18 in Oklahoma City or Tulsa who used alcohol, opioids, or drugs during pregnancy. It's for those pregnant or with a child under 24 months exposed to substances and not linked to services, or have a child with fetal alcohol spectrum disorder and are at risk of drinking while able to have more children.Check my eligibility

What is being tested?

The Parent-Child Assistance Program (PCAP) is being tested. It supports mothers who've used substances during pregnancy by providing three years of case management. The study aims to help them get treatment, recover, access resources for independent living, and prevent future substance use in pregnancy.See study design

What are the potential side effects?

Since PCAP involves social support rather than medical intervention, there aren't typical 'side effects' like you'd expect from medication. However, participants may experience emotional distress or other psychological impacts as they work through the program's requirements.
