FDS Support Groups Evaluation 2014.
19
acknowledging that support groups don’t suit all people, for those who do participate,
the groups are providing precisely the support and understanding needed to help cope
with a family member’s problematic drug use: there is nothing to change. As such, it
is recommended that the groups continue in their present format. FDS could
investigate establishing more groups, including an online group; potential leaders
could be found among the many appreciative parents who are looking to ‘give back’
to others.
