Better Together: Engaging and Partnering with Families When Drugs or Alcohol Are in the Picture

Course Description

family engagement by addressing three critical questions: (1) Who is the family? Who should we be engaging when working with families or youth in treatment services? (2) What are the 4 core underlying principles of effective youth and family engagement? What is the family engagement continuum and how do I assess where I am along the continuum? (3) Why is family engagement important? What are the benefits to individual youth and families, to professionals and agencies and to society at large of embracing family engagement as a foundational element of best practice?
