Summary

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 Laddr®, is a smartphone application ("app") that provides information and skills that can help people stop using substances. The social version of Laddr® 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 Laddr® in combination with standard outpatient substance use treatment to standard treatment only for substance use disorders.
