    "Beyond Addiction" is a book about the CRAFT(Community Reinforcement and Family Training).  An evidence based approach approach to helping someone with a substance use disorder.  An earlier book on the same method is titled "Get Your Loved One Sober".  There is also an online resource called the 20 minute guide on the Motivation for Change website at the following link.

    Hello, fellow SMHCA members!  I have been asked if I know of group therapy options in the Tampa Bay Area for parents of adolescents and/or young adults who are struggling with addiction/substance abuse other than Al Anon.  Preferably, this would be group therapy with a therapist facilitator rather than a peer support group, but both resources would be helpful.  Also, does anyone recommend books or other resources for such parents that could be helpful?
