Summary

This study tests two digital treatment programs for people recently released from prison who have a history of substance use problems. The goal is to see if these programs are practical and helpful in preventing relapse and return to prison. About 20 participants will use the digital treatments for 6 months, and researchers will track their engagement, substance use, and re-incarceration rates.
