Program: Family & Friends
SMART Recovery Family & Friends is a secular mutual support programme for family and friends of individuals with addictive behaviours. If you are struggling with addiction, this meeting is NOT for you (please look for "SMART Recovery" meetings instead). The program is based on the tools of SMART Recovery and Community Reinforcement Approach & Family Training (CRAFT). Studies have shown that CRAFT results in a significantly higher rate of treatment entry for Loved Ones than other programmes. At our meetings, trained volunteer facilitators address specific issues encountered by family and friends of those with addictive behaviours. Tools consistent with evidence-based motivational and cognitive behavioural theories are also offered and discussed.
Specific audiences: Adults Welcome
Anyone 18 and over fitting the purpose of the above program is welcome to join the meeting. Please read the program description to make sure it's the right meeting for you.
