Interventions and Outcome Measures

Arms

active comparator: Training as Usual

Participants receive the standard, state-approved Connecticut Community on Addiction Recovery PRSS training program. No digital content or enhancements are provided.

experimental: TDPP-A (Asynchronous Only)

Participants access the Thrive Digital Peer Platform (TDPP) in fully asynchronous format. Content is self-paced, structured into 11 "Journeys" using the Connect → Grow → Apply model, and includes interactive modules and peer-led stories. No live facilitation is included.

experimental: TDPP-Z (Asynchronous + Zoom)

Participants use the TDPP asynchronous platform and also attend three live, facilitator-led group Zoom sessions designed to enhance skill development, application, and peer interaction. This hybrid model integrates digital learning with synchronous coaching.

Interventions

Training-as-Usual (TAU)

Participants receive the standard Peer Recovery Supporter (PRS) training currently offered by CCAR. This training follows existing certification requirements and does not include any digital modules or facilitated teleconferencing components.

TDPP-A (Asynchronous Platform)

Participants engage with the Thrive Digital Peer Platform (TDPP), a fully asynchronous, self-paced online training program. The content includes 11 interactive modules structured using the Connect → Grow → Apply (CGA) learning framework, featuring peer stories, behavioral exercises, and scenario-based assessments.

TDPP-Z (Asynchronous + Zoom)

Participants use the same asynchronous TDPP platform as the TDPP-A group, with the addition of three live, facilitator-led Zoom sessions. These synchronous group sessions provide opportunities for applied learning, discussion, and skill reinforcement.

Primary outcome measure

  • YACS II Skill Adherence Score [ Time Frame: Post-intervention (within 2 weeks of training completion) ]
