PURPOSE OF THE FAMILY GROUP:

The family group is an ongoing support group for people who have a child, spouse, sibling, or significant friend who is: (1) currently in treatment at MARR, (2) has been in treatment at MARR or another facility and is now in recovery (3) is in active addiction, or (4) in another substance abuse related situation (i.e., jail, etc.).

The group is a safe and confidential place for family members to process their personal anger, pain, and confusion in regard to the emotional and/or financial damage they have sustained with “their addict.”

The group also discusses and teaches members about co-dependency / enabling and attempts to help members detach from their addict in healthy ways.  We have several long-term members (i.e., 10 years) who have experienced the ongoing agony of trying to “help their addict” in ways that have been destructive rather than constructive.
