About this trial

The goal of this clinical trial is to use contingency management (CM) as an intervention tool to address methamphetamine use.

The main objectives are to:

* Gather effectiveness data on a pilot a CM program for participants in Hawaii who use methamphetamine following hospitalization due to traumatic injury * To assess participant perspectives on engaging with a CM program based at a Level 1 Trauma Center. Researches will assess both patient-reported and biologically-confirmed medium-term program effectiveness and conduct qualitative interviews with participants post-program.

Participants will:

* Visit a follow-up clinic up to three times per week to complete urinalysis following discharge from the trauma unit * Complete Treatment Effectiveness Assessments at 6 and 12-weeks * Engage in a qualitative interview at the end of the CM program
