Summary

This study looks at whether a mobile app called 'Stand Down' can help Veterans who drink too much cut back. Some participants also get phone support from a peer specialist. The goal is to see if the app alone or with extra support works better at reducing drinking. About 234 Veterans from two VA hospitals are taking part.
