Summary
This study tested a web-based addiction treatment program that was culturally adapted for American Indians and Alaska Natives. 53 adults in outpatient treatment used the program for 12 weeks. The goal was to see if it helped them stay away from drugs and alcohol and to decide if a larger study should be done.
