Affected Families & Friends

The Affected Families and Friends Work Group provides opportunities for friends and family to share hope, raise awareness, and reduce the stigma associated with substance use disorders.

This work group meets monthly by remote teleconferencing. Please see the work group schedule for details. Recent meeting minutes, upcoming meeting schedule, and topics can be found on this page.

Resources

The work group has created a curated resource guide to provide information to friends and families coping with a loved one’s substance use disorder. The group also created Compassion Cards to provide a message of hope to families affected by substance use disorder or overdoses. You can order them here.
