Summary

This trial tests whether adding a relational health enhanced parenting support (RHEP) program to standard family-focused peer recovery services helps parents with substance use disorders. The study compares outcomes like parenting satisfaction, treatment retention, and substance use reduction between parents receiving standard services and those receiving the enhanced support. Peer recovery specialists will also receive additional training and consultation to improve how they deliver parenting support.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Relational Health Enhanced Parenting Support (RHEP) implementation bundle
What this could lead to
If effective, this approach could strengthen parenting skills and improve recovery outcomes for parents with substance use disorders, potentially reducing child protective services involvement.
What could go wrong
This is an early-stage implementation study, so results may vary across sites. The added training and support may not translate into better outcomes for all families.
