First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests Project LYNX, a program that helps young adults (ages 18-29) who have recently been involved with the criminal legal system find and connect to substance use treatment and HIV-prevention services. The program pairs each participant with a trained peer navigator and provides easy-to-use digital tools to guide them to the right care. The goal is to see if this approach is practical and effective in getting young people the services they need.
