# Resources for Families

Parenting a young man with mental health or substance abuse issues is a difficult task and feels overwhelming. That’s why at Align Adolescent Recovery, we work with families every step of the way, offering education, guidance, and community connections to help you navigate this chapter with clarity and confidence.

## Supporting You, So You Can Support Them

When a young person is in crisis, families often find themselves in survival mode—doing everything they can to hold the family together while managing fear, guilt, and uncertainty. We get it. That’s why Align provides dedicated resources not just for the young men we treat, but for the people who love them most.

## Ongoing Family Support You Can Count On

Join live, virtual support groups led by [Parent Coach & Transition Specialist Lu Vaughn](https://oplm.com/speaker/lu-vaughn/). Lu brings decades of wisdom and practical strategies to help parents navigate the ups and downs of the treatment journey.

### Monthly Psychoeducational & Family Support Webinars

Hosted by Patrick Barrasso, Tiffany Barrasso-Gallego, or Tony Barrasso, these sessions blend expert education with open Q&A, giving you actionable tools for communication, boundary-setting, and relapse prevention.

### Weekly Family Therapy Sessions

## Healing Is a Family Process

You don't have to do this alone. We're here to walk alongside you.
