NCT ID: NCT05569915 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Stress Disorders, Post-Traumatic

Project QueST 2023: Queer Survivors of Trauma

QueST2023
Start date: June 1, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This study aims to test the initial efficacy of tailored online writing interventions specifically designed for sexual minority women, transgender individuals, and/or nonbinary people to target the primary outcomes: posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptom severity and hazardous drinking.

NCT ID: NCT05185440 Recruiting - Sexual Violence Clinical Trials

Reducing Alcohol Involved Sexual Violence in Higher Education

RAISE
Start date: June 12, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This cluster-randomized controlled trial across 28+ college campuses focuses on undergraduate college students at elevated risk for sexual violence and hazardous drinking (i.e., students with prior history of sexual violence, students who are sexual or gender minority, and students with disabilities). "Reducing Alcohol Involved Sexual violence in higher Education (RAISE)" is a longitudinal study that will test research-informed strategies to improve implementation of a prevention intervention in college health and counseling centers, integrate a safety decision aid (via computer or mobile device) to more directly target harm reduction among students particularly vulnerable to hazardous drinking and SV, and evaluate campus policies that increase accessibility and uptake of confidential services for students. This is the first study to situate a sexual violence prevention intervention in college health and counseling centers to address two significant public health concerns -- alcohol-involved sexual violence and hazardous drinking on college campuses.

NCT ID: NCT03301064 Completed - Drinking Behavior Clinical Trials

Brief Intervention by Community Health Workers for Unhealthy Drinking in Latinos

Start date: June 18, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Latinos will comprise nearly 30% of the population by 2050, and socially disadvantaged Latinos experience a greater burden of poor health and negative social consequences related to their alcohol use than non-Latino Whites. Despite the need for services, low treatment utilization rates and poor treatment retention suggest it is important to make alcohol interventions more accessible for Latinos. Community health workers are an effective way to help under-served populations manage chronic illnesses such as diabetes and hypertension, but they have been used very little in addiction services. The current study extends work from a pilot study that utilized community health workers to deliver a brief alcohol intervention that integrates Motivational Enhancement Therapy and Strengths-Based Case Management (MET/SBCM). Based on those promising but preliminary findings, this study will test the MET/SBCM intervention among a broader population of socially disadvantaged Latinos who engage in unhealthy drinking. For the study a partnership will be formed between the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) and a large community-based healthcare organization, Providence Center for Community Health Improvement to conduct a randomized controlled trial of the MET/SBCM intervention. Participants (n=234) will screen positive for exceeding US low-risk drinking guidelines and will not be seeking alcohol treatment. They will be randomized to either the 3-session MET/SBCM alcohol intervention or to an alcohol brochure control condition. Alcohol use, alcohol-related problems and utilization of health and social services will be assessed at baseline, 3-, and 6-month follow-ups. It is predicted that the MET/SBCM intervention will improve outcomes compared to the control group. The study will also examine the extent to which changes in drinking were preceded by improvements in readiness to change, perceived benefits and risks associated with alcohol use, perception of drinking norms, use of pro-change language during intervention sessions, belief in one's ability to change, self-esteem and use of community services. The goal of this project is to establish an evidence base for an intervention approach that is sustainable by a large community-based organization serving Latinos. Working with community health workers poises this intervention to address health disparities within this community. The project will help improve the reach and impact of effective alcohol interventions among socially disadvantaged Latinos, thereby contributing to improved population health.
