Community Reinforcement and Family Training (CRAFT) Virtual Group
June 15, 2022 @ 12:45 pm - 1:45 pm
An event every week that begins at 12:45 pm on Wednesday, repeating until August 31, 2022
As we are seeing an increase in use and so many unsure of how to support people they love. Most of us are here because we have been on this journey or are newly realizing that we can make an impact to support our loved one in their addiction and recovery. Our 12:45pm Wednesday Zoom will be focused on using the CRAFT method for us to work through.
CRAFT was created by Dr. Robert Meyers to help family members with 3 key goals:
1. Help someone reduce their use
2. Help get a loved one to treatment/other recovery program
3. To increase wellness and decrease stress for the whole family
Research shows that individuals who have the opportunity to read his book are able to engage these 3 goals with a 40% success rate. When we add in person community and family training, this success rate goes up to 70%. Seventy Percent. Take a second and go back to those 3 key goals…..and go back to 70%. Those are some pretty amazing odds. When we love someone, we are pretty powerful warriors and maybe we too, can be in that 70%
As loved ones, we have a unique experience and with that a unique expertise. We know them, we know their why, we can see behaviors, actions, and their use a mile away. We can use this expertise to help move someone into their recovery journey. At the same time, when we’ve been fighting so hard, we also know that our wellness takes a hit and that this family journey is a delicate balance between our fight for them and our fight for our own wellness. CRAFT gives us an amazing set of tools that tackles both.
Each week we will move through a different tool with discussion, practice, healing, and most importantly community. We are not alone.
