Have an addict in the family? There's a solution.

Mental health issues, such as addiction, impact both individuals and their families. You may have a loved one struggling with addiction, wrestling with anxiety or other concerns. And after attempting different solutions, all you feel is hopelessness. The family system needs its own treatment as well – through family case management.
