New social mapping tool aims to boost teen recovery from alcohol problems
NCT ID NCT07474207
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a new tool called SIM-AiR that helps teens (ages 12-19) with alcohol use disorder visually map their social identities and networks. The goal is to support lasting recovery by addressing social risk and protective factors. Researchers will ask teens and their clinicians about how acceptable, appropriate, and feasible the tool is to use in treatment.
