๐Ÿฉบ Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of an intervention delivered on a smartphone. This study examines whether this intervention might improve treatment outcomes for people with substance use disorders. The intervention, called Laddrยฎ, is a smartphone application ("app") that provides information and skills that can help people stop using substances. The social version of Laddrยฎ being tested in this study has new features that allow people in treatment for substance use disorders to include a support person in their treatment journey, including a friend, family member, or other acquaintance. This research study will compare the effectiveness of Laddrยฎ in combination with standard outpatient substance use treatment to standard treatment only for substance use disorders.
