A PLAN

Realizing that your teen or young adult child needs help for their substance use can be frightening and overwhelming. We can help you navigate the steps along the way.


When is it time to get help?

Recognizing and understanding the problem, and helping a loved one reach the point of being willing and ready to engage in treatment and recovery, is an important milestone.
