Family Recovery Coaching
GAAMHA Family Recovery Coaches assist in building capacity within family systems that are specifically designed to improve individual health and create an environment that is most conducive to the support and recovery of their loved one with a substance use disorder. Our coaches have specific training through the FAST® (Family-Focused Addiction Support Training) Program that will help accomplish this.
Thanks to a Determination of Needs Grant awarded to GAAMHA by UMass Memorial HealthAlliance-Clinton Hospital we are able to provide these valuable services to you free of charge!
