Recovery Family Support Services (RFSS) provides free non-clinical, peer-led support to family members/loved ones of individuals living with substance use challenges.
Staffed by trained Family Peer Support Specialists with lived experience, RFSS offers guidance, education, and emotional support to help families navigate complex systems and better understand the recovery process, emphasizing multiple pathways to recovery, meeting families where they are and empowering them with tools, resources, and strategies that promote healing, resilience, and hope. RFSS helps families strengthen communication, reduce stress, and build supportive environments that contribute to their loved one’s recovery while also supporting their own well-being.
