Addiction does not just affect the person suffering from the disorder. Addiction is a family disease that overwhelms the family system and seriously harms its individual members.
At Tully Hill, we know the impact addiction has on families. We also know that treating family members impacted by substance use disorders can and does heal them by empowering them to live healthy, productive lives, individually and together.
We engage families at the start of treatment, educating them about addiction’s causes and effects, about treatment for addiction, and about the recovery challenges addiction presents. Mutual support plays a crucial role in the people suffering from addiction and their family’s healing and continued well-being.
Access our Family Program activities online at our Family Education Center and learn about the disease of addiction, why family members need to focus on themselves and how to do so, and how family members can make positive changes to meet their personal needs. Our program activities will help family members gain the knowledge and develop the skills to handle the difficult conversations that address the anger, frustration, fear, and anxiety, the shame and guilt, the emotional and economic burdens, as well as the job losses and financial stress that addiction causes.

Our Family Program goal is to restore the family stability and love.
Accessing our Family Program online at our Family Education Center provides family members with the help and support they need in realizing that goal. Our Family Education Center activities help family members achieve the following objectives for themselves and a family member suffering from and being treated for their addiction:
➢ The reframing of family members’ relationships and interactions with each other, including the family member with an addiction
➢ The improvement in communication between and among family members and an the family member with an addiction
➢ The rebuilding of trust and confidence among family members and the family member with an addiction, leading to greatly reduced emotional and economic burdens
➢ Learning what relapse is, how to recognize the signs of it and how to intervene early in any relapse process
➢ Learning and accepting the importance of participating in the continuing care plan of the family member with an addiction, including involvement with self-help programs like Al-Anon
