About

The goal of this clinical trial is to understand whether a technology-based solution, provided to residents in permanent supportive housing, is acceptable, feasible to implement, and has promise for improving resident stability. The main questions it aims to answer are:

• Is the technology-based, community-defined solution usable, acceptable, feasible, and have promise of effectiveness for improving resident knowledge?

There is no comparison group, all participants will receive the technology-based intervention. Researchers expect the intervention will include 2 weeks of intervention content that includes videos and incentives for completing content though the solution tested will ultimately be co-defined by our community board.
