Document Type

Article

Abstract

Purpose: This community-based participatory research project explored the feasibility of delivering parenting and recovery supports through digital technology for mothers recovering from addictive substances. Design and Methods: A community advisory board of key stakeholders (n = 7) served as a focus group of advisors to discuss needed supports. Data were analyzed through qualitative descriptive analysis. Findings: Results revealed themes about challenges and supports needed, and whether supports delivered through digital technology may improve recovery and parenting. Practice Implications: Future exploration needs to examine the extent to which the use of community-guided, tailored digital support applications that supplement prescribed treatment can enhance parenting and recovery.
