Jail-to-Community HIV and addiction care gets a tech boost
NCT ID NCT07088770
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested whether a set of strategies—including community teamwork, tech-based training, and peer support—could improve HIV testing and substance use care for people about to be released from jail. Researchers worked with 65 incarcerated individuals in one New York county to see if these approaches were practical and well-received. The goal was to learn what works best for linking people to HIV prevention, treatment, and addiction services after they leave jail.
