Rebuild the bonds with your child and support their recovery
Do any of these situations apply to you?
You want to help support the positive behavior changes you’re seeing
You want to increase your communiction skills to avoid conflicts in the future
You wish to empathise better with your child’s struggles to control their use
You need to better deal with the negative consequences of your son or daughter’s recovery
If you answered yes to even one of these, Parent CRAFT can help you.
It’s never too late to improve the way you communicate with your child or young adult as you work to get them the help they need. Only 10% of the 30M adolescents and young adults with harmful use of drugs and alcohol are receiving substance abuse treatment. Evidence suggests that substance users who are pushed into treatment by a traditional confrontational intervention are more likely to relapse than clients who are encouraged into treatment with less confrontational means.
CRAFT has been shown to be five times more effective than the traditional “tough love” method or interventions to get loved ones to seek professional help*. More than 2/3 of family members who use CRAFT successfully engage their loved ones in treatment, and family members who use CRAFT experience greater improvements in their emotional and physical health than do those who use confrontational methods.
