CRAFT-C participants attend a weekly 60-minute individualized on-on-one coaching session with a CRAFT certified coach. During weekly individual sessions concepts are briefly reviewed, questions are answered, and skills are practiced through role-plays of common situations. One-on-one sessions involve role-plays that are tailored to the participants' specific circumstances

Participants assigned to the PEER group will participate in an online peer support forum with other CSOs. Members of the forum post questions or comments to weekly peer-led discussions and receive responses and feedback from other CSO forum members. Members typically express concerns regarding their IP's wellbeing and ask other members to share any strategies they have employed when dealing with their IPs. Interactions typically, are based either in 12-Step strategies members have learned (usually through Al-Anon or Nar-Anon Family Groups or Family Training Workshops provided by treatment programs) or in CRAFT skills learned (usually from treatment programs or other We The Village members). A staff member from We The Village monitors forum interactions to ensure members are interacting respectfully. This individual also will report any adverse or severe adverse events that members mention online.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Treatment Entry: IP Treatment Status
Participants reported whether their loved one had attended any treatment for their opioid problem since the last assessment by answering 8 questions regarding participation in treatment (e.g., detox, any treatment, new treatment, MAT, new MAT, counseling, support group, and other group). Reports of new treatment, new MAT, and treatment at the follow-up assessment which were not reported at baseline were categorized as treatment entry. In addition, entry into WTV recovery coaching, WTV family coaching, or reports of treatment entry to WTV staff were categorized as treatment entry. Outcome was the proportion of participants reporting that their loved one entered new treatment.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Relationship Happiness: Relationship Happiness Scale
Global score from the 10-item scale was calculated by adding scores (1-10) from 10 items. Minimum possible score was 10 and maximum was 100. Higher scores reflect greater Relationship Happiness.
CSO Health and Wellbeing: Profile of Mood State (POMS) - Short Form
Total mood disturbance (TMD) score calculated by adding scores (1-5) from the tension (6 items), depression (8 items), anger (7 items), fatigue (5 items), and confusion (5 items) subscales, then subtracting the score form the vigor (6 items) subscale. Minimum TMD possible score was 1 and maximum was 149. Higher scores reflect greater mood disturbance.
CSO Health and Wellbeing: SF-12 Physical Health Subscale
The 7-item scale was transformed so that is had a mean of 50 and a s.d. of 10 in the general US population. Scores above and below 50 are above and below the average with each point representing a difference of 1/10th of a standard deviation.
CSO Health and Wellbeing: SF-12 Mental Health Subscale
The 5-item scale was transformed so that is had a mean of 50 and a s.d. of 10 in the general US population. Scores above and below 50 are above and below the average with each point representing a difference of 1/10th of a standard deviation.
CSO Health and Wellbeing: SAS-SR Work Subscale
Social Adjustment Scale, Self-Report. Standardized scale to assess individual's level of satisfaction in their role performance over the past two weeks key life areas. We used subscales representing the work, housework, and school areas of functioning. Each subscale consisted of 6 items scored on a 1-5 scale. A subscale adjustment score was obtained by summing the scores of all the items and dividing by the number of items actually answered. Thus, each subscale summary score had a minimum score of 1 and a maximum score of 5. Lower scores indicate higher satisfaction in their role performance.
CRAFT Knowledge: CRAFT Knowledge Scale
Knowledge score calculated by adding the number of correct multiple-choice answers to 10 scenarios. Minimum score was 0 and maximum was 10. Higher scores reflect greater knowledge.
MAT
Participants reported whether their loved one had attended any treatment for their opioid problem since the last assessment by answering 8 questions regarding participation in treatment. Reports of new MAT and MAT at the follow-up assessment which was not reported at baseline were categorized as new MAT. In addition, reports of MAT entry to WTV staff were included. Outcome was the proportion of participants reporting that their loved one entered MAT. This differs from Outcome Measure 1 in that Outcome Measure 1 included drug-free and medication-assisted treatments of any type, while this measure included only MAT.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The United States is in the midst of an opioid crisis. Over-prescription of opioid analgesic pain relievers contributed to a rapid escalation of use and misuse of these substances across the country. In 2016, more than 2.6 million Americans were diagnosed with opioid use disorder (OUD) and more than 42,000 have died of overdose involving opioids. This death rate is more than any year on record and has quadrupled since 1999 (1,2). Leveraging the potential of available data bases and health IT technologies may help to combat opioid crisis by targeting various aspects of the problem ranging from the prevention of opioid misuse to OUD treatment. NIH through NIDA solicits the research and development of data-driven solutions and services that focus on issues related to opioid use prevention, opioid use, opioid overdose prevention or OUD treatment. In this project, We The Village, Inc. will address a need to prepare Concerned Significant Others (CSOs) to best use their influence over the trajectory of a loved one's OUD. CSOs are motivated to help, make majority of treatment decisions and payments and have influence over treatment entry and thus, impact the trajectory of an OUD. The project goal is to develop digital delivery of Community Reinforcement And Family Training (CRAFT) methodology, an empirical family behavioral intervention to improve outcomes around treatment entry, family functioning and substance use.
Detailed Description
The primary objective of the proposed Phase I work is to determine the feasibility of delivering Community Reinforcement And Family Training (CRAFT) principles via scalable digital coaching methods and determine its efficacy based on measured outcomes. Technical Objectives 1. Modify the WTV platform to produce a CRAFT-informed automated prototype and protocol for live coaching. Technical Objectives 2. Test prototype usability and reliability to deliver the protocol, and make any refinements needed. Technical Objectives 3. Demonstrate prototype efficacy. Testing three digital scenarios: A. Automated CRAFT, B. CRAFT Coach, C. Peer support, the current WTV platform interaction. As a result, when tested at baseline versus post-intervention, CRAFT conditions (Coach and Automated) are expected to achieve better outcomes than the peer condition in a) treatment entry, b) Concerned Significant Others (CSO) health and wellbeing, c) CSO and identified patient relationship, d) CRAFT adeptness. Results will substantiate the case for Phase II roll out of the platform at scale, plus commercialization and dissemination through an existing and growing network of partners.

Intervention Name(s)
Community Reinforcement And Family Training (CRAFT)
Intervention Description
Community Reinforcement Approach and Family Training (CRAFT) is a scientifically based intervention designed to help concerned significant others (CSOs) to engage treatment-refusing substance abusers into treatment. This new intervention method was developed with the belief that the CSO can play a powerful role in helping to engage the substance user in treatment. It is often the substance user who reports that family pressure or influence is the reason sought treatment. CSOs benefit by becoming more independent and reducing their depression, anxiety and anger symptoms even if their loved one does not enter treatment. CRAFT uses a positive approach versus confrontation, emphasizing learning new skills to cope with old problems. Some components include: how to stay safe, outlining the context in which substance abusing behavior occurs, teaching CSOs how to use positive reinforcers (rewards) and how to let the substance user suffer the natural consequences for their using behavior.
