What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
Motivational Interviewing and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (MI-CBT)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could provide an effective, non-drug approach to help homeless veterans return to productive activities like work or school.
What could go wrong
This is an early-stage trial with only 106 participants, so results may not apply broadly. The intervention is behavioral, so individual motivation and circumstances will strongly influence outcomes.
As listed by the trial registrant
The condition terms exactly as the trial's registrant entered them.
