Study Summary

This trial will study how rewards can help people with substance use disorders stay in recovery houses and engage in activities that support their recovery. House staff are trained to provide rewards.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 living in rural recovery houses due to substance use disorders. They must be able to make informed decisions about their participation. People with uncontrolled mania, psychosis, or suicidal thoughts, or those likely to leave the house within two months are not eligible.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests contingency management as a treatment in recovery houses. Participants earn rewards for activities that support their recovery. The effectiveness of this approach will be compared with usual care by looking at engagement and retention up to six months after treatment ends.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since contingency management involves behavioral incentives rather than medication, traditional side effects are not expected. However, participants may experience psychological impacts from the reward-based system which will be monitored.

Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Contingency managementExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
In addition to receiving usual care at the recovery house, participants assigned to this arm will receive contingency management by trained recovery house staff in addition to their usual care. Contingency management sessions will be led by a trained recovery house staff member who is also a research participant in the study. Contingency management will occur once weekly for sessions of approximately 10-15 minute duration for up to 12 weeks. Participants will plan three recovery-oriented activities with the staff member each week, and upon verification of completion of the tasks, the resident participant can earn prize draws of varying monetary amounts.
Group II: Usual CareActive Control1 Intervention
Participants in this arm will receive usual care that they would normally receive at the recovery houses. Recovery houses are safe, healthy, family-like substance-free living environments that support individuals in recovery from addiction. Although recovery residences vary considerably, this form of housing benefits individuals in recovery by reinforcing a substance-free lifestyle and providing direct connections to other peers in recovery, mutual support groups and recovery support services.
