Unified Junction of Care, Integrated Treatments and Team Coordination for ADHD in Prison Settings With Substance Use Disorder
France39 participantsStarted 2026-07-01
Plain-language summary
Substance use disorders (SUD) and attention deficit disorder with or without hyperactivity (ADHD) are frequently co-morbid, particularly among people under court supervision. The coexistence of these disorders increases the social and legal vulnerability of individuals. Better identification of ADHD in vulnerable people with SUD is essential to improving their care. This project aims to provide appropriate support for this at-risk population.

Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1This trial is set inside prison settings and hasn't started recruiting yet — if I or my family member is currently incarcerated and being treated for both ADHD and a substance use disorder, is this study something worth asking the facility's medical team about when it does open?
2The trial seems to be measuring whether 80% of participants actually attend the workshops, which sounds like it's still testing whether the program is feasible rather than whether it improves health outcomes — does that mean the evidence on whether this approach actually helps people is still very early, and should that affect how we think about it compared to existing treatments?
3Since this involves coordinating care across ADHD and substance use disorder in a prison environment, what does 'team coordination' actually look like in practice, and would my care team on the outside be involved at all once someone is released?
4Given that this trial is not yet recruiting, what are the currently available, evidence-based treatments for co-occurring ADHD and substance use disorder that I should be considering right now while waiting to see if this study opens?
5Are there any risks specific to participating in a workshop-based mental health program inside a prison setting — such as privacy concerns or how participation might be documented — that we should think through carefully before considering enrollment?

Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
