ClinConnect Summary
This clinical trial is studying a program called Just Care for Families, which aims to help parents in rural Oregon who are struggling with substance use, particularly opioids and methamphetamine, along with mental health issues. The goal is to improve the lives of these parents and their children by addressing various factors that affect their health and well-being, known as social determinants of health. The program includes treatments for substance use and mental health, training for parenting skills, building community support, and helping families meet their basic needs.
To participate in the study, parents must have used opioids or methamphetamine in the past year, have mental health symptoms, and be the parent of a child aged 0-18. They should live in specific counties in Oregon and be insured by the Oregon Health Plan (Medicaid). Participants can expect to engage in various supportive activities and receive help tailored to their needs. This trial is currently recruiting participants, and it focuses not only on the effectiveness of the Just Care program but also on understanding the related costs and how social factors impact treatment.
