Addiction is a family disease, meaning it affects even the youngest of family members.
Addiction is a family disease, meaning it affects even the youngest of family members.
We believe families need healing and we understand that assisting everyone in the family is essential to a patient’s ability to achieve long-term recovery.
The Dilworth Kids Program allows children to express their concerns about a parent’s addiction and to learn about the disease of addiction in a “kid friendly” way.
