Field Trial of a Relapse Prevention Program for Adolescents Receiving Substance Use Treatment

The online relapse prevention program called Navigating my Journey is designed for adolescents who are receiving outpatient treatment for substance abuse. Since the Navigating my Journey program will be available to adolescents 24/7, it is easy for them to access at their convenience. The program functions as an adjunct to treatment and is designed to complement and enhance the work the adolescent does with the counselor during counseling sessions. The core intervention is expected to last for 12 weeks.

Client participants in the control group will receive their typical course of counseling and a link to online online health information in PDF form as an attention control.
