A grant from the City of Lewiston’s Opioid Settlement Funds enabled Sweetser to invite consultants from Partnership to End Addiction to offer a workshop on the FamilyFrame model. Clinicians and supervisors attended the training, which was held on Thursday, June 20th on the Saco Campus.
Family-based treatment is crucial for adolescent substance use recovery and increases family therapy skill utilization. Family involvement helps by:
- Improving treatment engagement
- Reducing substance use
- Supporting long-term success
Clinicians enjoy the flexibility and appreciate modeling examples the treatment approach provides. When clinicians integrate FamilyFrame and provide an evidence-based, family-centered approach outcomes are improved.
