Nurturing Parenting for Families in Recovery

Recovery is possible.

If you are a parent or caregiver working on your recovery and want to learn more about the effects of substance use on your family, parenting style, and relationship with your child, join us for this FREE 17-week program.

You will explore hands-on activities and guided discussions to enhance your self-awareness and increase your ability to relate to your child/children in a safe and supportive environment surrounded by parents and caregivers who share similar life

What to expect. 

In this course, parents and caregivers will learn about stress management, guiding behaviors, and boundary skills and gain a deeper understanding of the feelings of grief, loss, and guilt that may come with recovery from a substance use disorder. Participants will rebuild trust with their children through exercises centered on self-care, finding hope, and critical parenting skills. Class instructors will also offer a panel of community providers to aid participants in their recovery and parenting journeys.

Who are classes for?

This class is ideal for Maine expectant parents, parents, and caregivers who are recovering from a substance use disorder or actively using substances. The class is also open to family members who are raising children that have been affected by substance use disorders. This class is for parents/caregivers who are actively parenting.

Participants are encouraged to come to the group for as long as they wish to. Many members have attended the group for years to receive ongoing sober parenting support.
