NCT ID NCT05260047
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at ways to help people of color living in areas with high overdose rates start and continue medication-assisted treatment (MAT) for opioid or alcohol use. Researchers will track how many treatment sessions people attend and whether they stick with their medications. The goal is to find better ways to support recovery in communities that need it most.
