Hi Friend,
Whether you are a parent, grandparent, aunt, uncle, sibling or other caregiver — our helpline is here for you and anyone else playing a supportive role in the life of someone struggling with substance use.
In the next episode of our YouTube video series, Cesar Bravo Wolfe, Helpline Supervisor at Partnership to End Addiction, responds to some of the most frequently asked questions we hear from parents and family members about our helpline services and what they can expect if they schedule a call with one our specialists, such as:
- Who is the helpline for?
- What will I talk about with the helpline specialist?
- What resources are available at drugfree.org?
- How do I connect with the helpline?
There is no one-size-fits-all approach and each family is unique. Our helpline specialists will meet you wherever you are on your journey.
Some parents may have a feeling or suspicion that their child is misusing substances and aren’t sure what to do next. Others may have a child who has struggled with substance use disorder for years and need more resources and advice on what treatment is best. Regardless of where you and your family are, our helpline specialists will listen, help you make an action plan, and direct you to resources in your community.
Support is available in English and Spanish, and all services are free of charge.
You can watch this episode and previous episodes here on drugfree.org. This yearlong video series will feature a variety of topics, voices and stories all year long.
