RCADD Programs That May Help You

HOPE Program

Families trying to cope with a loved one who is struggling with Substance Use Disorder (SUD) may experience a strong internal tug of war that can strain the strongest bonds. Supporting a family member who is suffering from this disease is an incredibly difficult and exhausting task. HOPE is an educational and support program for families affected by SUDs.

WE WILL HELP YOU TO

  • Recognize the signs and symptoms of substance use
  • Understand the mental & emotional impact on families living with a person with SUD
  • Explore avenues of support
  • Learn about stages of recovery

HOPE is a Strictly Confidential Program. Families can meet one-on-one or in a group setting with a facilitator who is experienced in the field of addiction and working with families.
