Be a Recovery Support System

Families come in all different forms, sizes and configurations. Our Kindred Family Therapy Program celebrates the diversity of LGBTQ+ families and welcomes them to participate in the treatment process for their loved one.

Whether family by blood, by choice or a combination of both, invited attendees are encouraged to take this opportunity to see how their lives will change when their loved one is in recovery. Families can ask questions about treatment and learn ways they can be supportive of their loved ones during treatment, after discharge and throughout the recovery process. All materials and food are provided during the sessions.

The program allows patients to invite their defined family to attend the structured education sessions, large-group therapy and individual family therapy as part of the Kindred Weekend every other month. Times may vary upon family’s needs. The following days scheduled for 2020/2021 calendar year:

November 7th, 2020
December 5th, 2020
January 9th, 2021
February 6th, 2021
March 6th, 2021
April 3rd, 2021

Families are eligible to participate until six months after the patient leaves any level of treatment. Patients can still invite friends and family to visit during normal Saturday visiting hours without attending the Kindred Family Program and also request an individual family session.
