Our Family Workshop focuses on an invitational, motivational, non-confrontational, family focused intervention process.
To begin, the family is carefully coached on how to inform and invite the addicted individual to attend the workshop.
We encourage all family members to attend and participate in understanding family problems associated with addiction and its effects on each member. More importantly, we provide an opportunity to identify solutions. Support and encouragement is critical to recovery from addiction. We encourage participants to verbalize hopes and feelings for their loved ones.
Workshop Objectives
- Understand the physical addiction process
