Hope For Healing

Substance use disorders affect an entire family……

Who today does not know someone whose life has been impacted by substance use or misuse?

Research demonstrates that a family-centered approach to treatment, recovery and family well-being, and improves outcomes when the complex needs of each family member are met.  Supportive services exist to provide educational programs and evidence informed resources for parents, concerned significant others (CSO) and students.

“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.”

~ SAMHSA (Substance Abuse and Mental Health Service Administration)

“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.”
