Hope For Healing
Substance use disorders affect an entire family……
Who today does not know someone who has been impacted by this disease?
“Research demonstrates that a family-centered approach to treatment, recovery and family well-being, improves outcomes when the complex needs of each family member are met through supportive services such as parenting programs, children’s development and therapeutic services, and attachment-based family therapeutic services.
A family-centered approach extends well beyond the substance use disorder (SUD) treatment system, child welfare system, courts and mental health services, and includes all other agencies and individuals who interact with and serve families. A family-centered approach to SUD treatment provides a comprehensive array of clinical treatment and related support services that meet the needs of each family member, not just the individual requesting care.”
Many non-profit organizations now exist that are designed to help individuals and families find the resources they need on the road to recovery. The following organizations are supported by SOS(S) for their outstanding individual and family recovery resource information. These organizations are invaluable tools for families on how to help loved ones heal from an addiction to drugs or alcohol.

Community Reinforcement and Family Training (CRAFT)
SafeLocator.org : To find support and treatment for you or your loved one (Powered by Partnership to End Addiction)
“Community Reinforcement and Family Training, or CRAFT, is an approach for families who have a loved one struggling with substances, but who is not really interested in making changes or getting help. CRAFT is about learning a different method to communicate with and support your loved one. It is about taking are of yourself, while also learning how to interact with your loved one in a way that increases the likelihood of making a real change.”
