How can we help?

Is teen substance use "normal?"

I think my child is using drugs, but don’t know what to do about it.

I need to get my child into treatment.

How can I help my child change their behavior?

I’m stressed and exhausted, and don’t think I can handle this.
quote

I’ve heard from countless young people that the reason they got into recovery was because of the connection with a parent who fought for them when they couldn’t figure out how to help themselves.
