Family members play varied roles in the lives of adults with mental illness or substance use disorder. Many family members provide emotional, social, and instrumental supports, including help with money, housing, child care, and transportation. Family members often help their loved ones to access and navigate services, and face unique challenges as they do so. Increasingly, organizations are recognizing that supporting families is an important part of supporting individuals in or seeking recovery.



SAMHSA’s Bringing Recovery Supports to Scale Technical Assistance Center Strategy (BRSS TACS) invites you to join national experts in a conversation about the experiences of families as they support their loved ones.



Please join us for this free, interactive virtual event moderated by Lonnetta Albright, BRSS TACS Subject Matter Expert.
