Family Support Program

Where Healing Begins and Hope Takes Root.

Companionship, not judgment. Resources, not isolation.

Weekly Family Support Group

A Learning Group Grounded in Science and Kindness
  • Tuesdays, 6 - 7:30 PM
  • 2200 Bob Wallace Ave SW
    Huntsville, AL 35805

Our Family Support Group is a structured, topic-driven learning space based on the Invitation to Change model from the Center for Motivation and Change. This peer-led, research-backed approach blends evidence with empathy.

This support group is specifically for individuals and families who have been impacted by substance use disorders. It is also a welcoming group for those in recovery who are willing to share their experiences so that families can better understand the struggles of their loved one.

  • Practical strategies to support your loved one and yourself
  • A free copy of the 20-Minute Guide — a resource created just for families
  • Open to all adults (18+), no RSVP needed (call us if you have any trouble finding us at our temporary office within the Shottenkirk Honda Service Center: 256-384-5055)
