Training Platform for Peer Recovery Supporters
This study is testing new ways to train Peer Recovery Supporters (people who use their own recovery experience to help others). It compares standard training (Training-as-Usual) with two new digital platforms: TDPP-A (a self-paced online program) and TDPP-Z (the same online program plus live Zoom sessions). The goal is to see if these new platforms improve the skills and adherence of Peer Recovery Supporters. You can join if you are 18 or older, live in the U.S., have at least one year of continuous sobriety, and plan to become a Peer Recovery Supporter. The study aims to improve training and ultimately help more people recover from substance and alcohol use disorders. The current status of this study is unclear.

What this trial measures
- YACS II Skill Adherence ScorePost-intervention (within 2 weeks of training completion)
Assessed using the adapted Yale Adherence and Competence Scale II (YACS II), which measures skill adherence during simulated peer recovery support interactions. Each participant is scored by blinded, trained raters using a standardized coding protocol.
