Study Summary

The main objective of this study is development of the Positive Peer Journaling (PPJ) intervention and the feasibility, acceptability, and logistics of treatment delivery. A second objective is to observe whether PPJ is associated with improvement in hypothesized outcomes. The primary outcomes the investigators will examine are enhanced treatment retention and reduced recurrence of substance use. The investigators will also explore the association between the intervention and a set of hypothesized mediators of the effect of the intervention on outcomes, e.g., improvement in mood and satisfaction with recovery.

Primary Outcome

Percentage of participants who were retained in treatment at the host facility until the end of the study or who left the residential treatment facility on good terms during the course of the study.
