Summary

This pilot study tests a web-based program called Let's Do Addiction Recovery Together! (LDART) for adults with alcohol use disorder. Participants use the website to set daily goals, watch motivational messages from people in recovery, and find local support groups. The study will see if the program is easy to use and whether it helps reduce drinking compared to a control group.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Let's Do Addiction Recovery Together! (LDART) - a web-based intervention with goal setting, motivational messages, and recovery group info
What this could lead to
If it works, this could provide a low-cost, accessible digital tool to help people reduce hazardous drinking and support recovery.
What could go wrong
This is a small pilot study (80 participants) focused on feasibility, not proof of effectiveness. The intervention is web-based, so engagement may vary, and results may not generalize beyond Connecticut.
