-Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to understand whether a technology-based solution, provided to residents in permanent supportive housing, is acceptable, feasible to implement, and has promise for improving resident stability. The main questions it aims to answer are:

• Is the technology-based, community-defined solution usable, acceptable, feasible, and have promise of effectiveness for improving resident knowledge?

There is no comparison group, all participants will receive the technology-based intervention. Researchers expect the intervention will include 2 weeks of intervention content that includes videos and incentives for completing content though the solution tested will ultimately be co-defined by our community board.

+Detailed description

Our clinical trial is a pre-post assessment of resident knowledge.

+Arms and interventions

Arm	Type	Interventions	Description
Intervention	Experimental	Behavioral: Technology-based Intervention	All participants will be assigned to the intervention, which includes exposure to the technology-based solution while participants are housed within permanent supportive housing. It is anticipated that the intervention will deliver a total of 10 sessions of harm reduction focused cognitive behavioral skills and skills applications. A total of 20 skills practice sessions are also included. Financial incentives are provided up to $50 for completion of sessions and skills practice.

Technology-based Intervention (Behavioral): Technology-based intervention co-developed by a community board.

+Outcome measures

Primary outcomes

Knowledge [baseline; 30 days]: Knowledge is gain in knowledge related to Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) skills and life skills taught by the intervention as the number of items answered correctly.
Self-efficacy [baseline; 30 days]: Self-efficacy will assess participant confidence in their ability to implement the skills learned from the intervention. We will develop the items as part of the study, and items will be identified based on the CBT principles and skill applications taught in the program. We will use a 5-point Likert scale of not at all confident (=1) to very confident (=5). A mean score will be computed, ranging from 1 to 5, with higher scores indicating greater self-efficacy in implementing the skills learned in the intervention.
Behavioral intentions [baseline; 30 days]: Behavioral intentions are participants' self-reported likelihood of implementing the skills learned from the intervention on a regular basis. We will develop the items as part of the study, and items will be identified based on the CBT principles and skill applications taught in the program. We will use a 5-point Likert scale of not at all likely (=1) to very likely (=5). A mean score will be computed, ranging from 1 to 5, with higher scores indicating a greater likelihood of implementing the skills learned in the intervention on a regular basis.

Other outcomes

Dosage [Through study completion, an average of 1 month]: Dosage is the number of sessions and skills practices a participant completes
