We view addiction as a family disease that impacts everyone. Family recovery means everyone is doing something to manage the impact of substance use disorder. Family recovery is hard and certainly a commitment, but we promise to be there with you each step of the way. Nobody needs to make this journey alone. Not only do we offer weekend in-person family programming, but we also offer virtual family support groups via Zoom.
When are the free virtual family support meetings?
- Wednesdays: 8:00 pm to 9:00 pm
- Saturdays: 12:30 pm to 1:30 pm –Every 3rd Saturday of the month, we have our Empower Hour Monthly Coaching Sessions. See the topics below for more details.
