Evaluation of a Peer Recovery Support Program Adapted to Target Retention in Clinic-based Medication for Opioid Use Disorder Treatment

The intervention adds a peer recovery support (PRS) program to standard outpatient medication for opioid use disorder treatment and medical care. The PRS program will entail meeting one-on-one with a peer recovery specialist over a 6-month period, who will utilize their lived experience with substance use and recovery to provide emotional, informational, instrumental, and affiliational support to participants.
