Are you between the ages of 18 and 25? Are you struggling with drug or alcohol use?
Researchers at UConn Health are recruiting volunteers for a study of better ways to help people deal with drug or alcohol use and traumatic events. Half of participants receive a free experimental treatment to help them with drug or alcohol use and trauma. These participants have a chance to earn an average of $250 in prizes. The other half receives referrals for treatment elsewhere. Participants are randomly assigned to one of the treatments (like a flip of a coin).
All study participants are paid up to $295 for their time. Participation involves meetings twice/week for 10 weeks and 3 interviews over 6 months.
