Summary

This randomized clinical trial will compare participants who receive HaRTC versus the nontreatment control arm to see if HaRTC helps urban American Indians and Alaska Natives who meet criteria for an alcohol use disorder to increase their engagement in cultural practices, enhance their quality of life, and reduce their alcohol-related harm.

OTHER

HaRTC

HaRT-C participants will attend 8, virtual, adapted, low-barrier, weekly, closed-group Talking Circles-- named Harm Reduction Treatment Circles or HaRTC -- lasting approximately 2 hours each. During the HaRTC, the circle keeper will present the day's harm reduction topic, smudge the space, and allow participants to open themselves up to the circle. Topics presented by the Circle Keeper focus on harm-reduction and improving overall quality of health. Abstinence from alcohol use is not a requirement. We will not limit participants' access to treatment or services in either arm.
