About this trial

This project continues our work with women in the Kentucky Women's Justice Community Overdose Innovation Network Phase II (WJCOIN-II) with the overall aim of reducing overdose risk during the transition from jail to rural communities. WJCOIN-II has potential for significant impact regarding the effectiveness, implementation, and sustainability of innovative overdose prevention strategies during the high-risk time of community re-entry among vulnerable, CLS-involved women in rural communities. This research will impact the field by increasing the capacity of the criminal legal system to respond to the overdose crisis through increased access to prevention strategies to reduce overdose risk.

Trial design

Design model

Factorial

Treatments tested in this trial

  • Overdose Prevention Intervention Package (OPIP)

    Behavioral

    WJCOIN-II's multi-level 2 X 2 randomized factorial design will examine the effectiveness of OPIP components across four study conditions randomly assigned after baseline data collection (n=75 per condition, 100 per jail site), summarized in Table 7 and described below. In addition to group assignment, outcomes will be assessed as a function of engagement in each intervention component defined as the number of sessions attended (RC and CM conditions) and perceived support, which is a count of the number of types of support provided by the RC and SP (e.g., emotional, financial, etc.).
