Families in Recovery helps families and friends touched by a loved one’s addiction escape the lonely isolated place they often find themselves in. And instead, share experience, strength, and hope in a safe environment. Free childcare/child-friendly programming is always provided for the weekly Monday support group.
The program provides people with opioid use disorder (OUD) and their families with: family meetings, family support groups, family education, and connection with community support and service providers. The goal is to increase support of, and engagement between, the whole family impacted by OUD, improve participants’ outcomes for long-term recovery, and improve family outcomes.
Developed in collaboration with the Union and Snyder Commissioners, the 17th District’s Treatment Court team, and people impacted by Opioid Use Disorder (OUD), SVM’s Families in Recovery Program engages non-profits, faith-based communities and community partners to take a whole family/community approach to supporting individuals with OUD.
