Kentucky Access to Recovery Evaluation

Completed

Conditions studied: Substance Use Disorders, Treatment Adherence and Compliance

In brief

Evaluate the long-term effectiveness of implementing vouchers as a linkage strategy in a population requiring recovery support services (RSS) when no other funding sources are available. A within-subjects study design will be used to test the effectiveness of the Kentucky Access to Recovery (KATR) last resort voucher linkage approach to reduce the risk of nonfatal and fatal overdoses by (a) increasing an individual's recovery capital; (b) reducing resumption of illicit substance use; and (c) promoting relinking to RSSs if illicit substance use is resumed.
