For those working with families affected by substance use, mental illness, and trauma, The Nurturing Program for Families in Substance Abuse Treatment and Recovery provides a structured program through which parents can explore their own histories, understand forces affecting their families, and build skills to help their families recover.
This training will present information on the 3rd edition of the curriculum, with sections designed for fathers and men, as well as on our NP Guide for Individual Use—suggestions and examples for using the NP with individuals and families.
Though done in an online setting, this training continues to embody the spirit of the original in-person training and includes experiential activities, games in both large and small breakout groups.
Because this is an experiential training, come prepared to join in and learn facilitation of the curriculum by participating. We strongly encourage participants to keep cameras on throughout the training.
