About

Welcome to Project Better!

Project Better uses text (SMS) messages to provide support and promote healthy coping following exposure to traumatic or stressful events. We hope to learn whether simple text messages can help change people’s drinking and distress – we are passionate about understanding reactions to stressors and providing support to as many people affected by stressors as possible!

We are no longer recruiting participants for this study.
