Complimentary Weekend in South Florida

Loved ones often feel overwhelmed, confused, angry, fearful, and unsure as to what to do or how to handle their particular situation. The Schnellenberger Family Foundation’s Family Educational Weekend at The Schnellenberger Drug and Alcohol Treatment Center is geared towards the needs of the immediate family members of drug and alcohol addicts. The intent of the weekend is to provide the family with a complimentary, three-day stay in South Florida with the addict, supporting him, and most importantly learning to be a force for healing and recovery.

Recovery Tools

Here the families are provided the same tools for recovery that have been given to their respective loved ones; only in this case, those tools have been designed from the family’s perspective. There’s also ample opportunity for interaction between attending families and their loved ones, including an open group Impact/Accountability Workshop. While the issues raised are often difficult to address, both families and clients say this is one of their favorite sessions.
