CourtConnect for Substance Use Disorder
This study is testing a program called CourtConnect to help people with Substance Use Disorder (SUD) – a condition where drug or alcohol use causes problems in your life – get treatment and support. CourtConnect connects individuals in courthouses with peer court navigators, who are people with similar experiences, to provide information and referrals for treatment and other needs. Another group will receive only general information about services. The study wants to see if CourtConnect helps more people get into SUD treatment. You might be able to join if you are 18 or older, live in Indiana, speak English, and have used heroin, fentanyl, methamphetamine, or cocaine in the past year, are interested in SUD treatment, or have experienced an opioid overdose. The study is currently unclear on its recruitment status.

What this trial measures
- Administratively documented substance use disorder treatment engagement90 days after baseline
This participant-level outcome will indicate whether a participant has any administratively documented substance use disorder treatment engagement within 90 days after baseline. Treatment engagement will be determined from linked state administrative records, including Medicaid claims for substance use disorder treatment services and prescription drug monitoring program records showing dispensed medications used to treat substance use disorder. For participants without administratively documented substance use disorder treatment during the 90 days before baseline, a qualifying post-baseline record will be classified as treatment initiation. For participants with administratively documented substance use disorder treatment during the 90 days before baseline, a qualifying post-baseline record will be classified as continued treatment engagement. The outcome will be reported as the proportion of participants in each study arm with administratively documented treatment engagement.
