Family Education Support Group
Held every Tuesday at the Worthington Police Department Building
7:00 PM -8:00 PM
Been at your wits end about how to help a friend or family member with a substance abuse problem? Not sure how to help or what to do? The public is welcome to participate in the Family Education Support Group which meets every Tuesday at the Worthington Police Department Building on the corner of Ross and Church St. from 7:00pm-8:00pm. This is a free service. A large percentage of families do not understand the process of addiction and recovery. The most effective way for family members and loved ones to be responsive and be supportive of their loved one is to develop a strong understanding of the disease and recovery processes. This includes remaining aware of potential triggers, avoiding enabling behavior with the chemically dependent person, understanding that recovery is a process (not an event), understanding the consequences that addiction has had on their own lives, and the importance of self-care. For more information please call 724-548-7607 or 1-800-323-1333 or contact us. No pre-registration is required!

The Advocacy Group (TAG)
Recovery from Drug and Alcohol Addiction is a solution for many. Fostering recovery in Armstrong County is a solution for many community concerns.
The Advocacy Group (TAG) is your opportunity to help change the stigma around the disease of addiction. We aim to educate families and the community about addiction, successful treatment strategies and recovery. TAG is an advocate for the importance of treatment funding to our elected officials, and works to advocate for safe and sober housing for those in recovery. We celebrate recovery by coordinating and hosting sober activities throughout the year. For more information, e-mail tagteam1@live.com
