75-90 minutes · Live on Zoom · Free to attend
What you’ll walk away with:
A clear, compassionate roadmap for supporting your child — without losing yourself.
No obligation · No judgment · Practical tools you can use the same day.
Who This Is For
This webinar is for you if:
You are the parent of an addicted adult child
You’re afraid of relapse or overdose
You feel stuck between helping and enabling
You’re tired of being told to “detach” or “wait for rock bottom”
You want practical tools instead of anger, guilt, fear, or helplessness
You want to shift from chaos to calm
For parents who refuse to give up on their child — or on themselves.
You’ll learn how to stay connected, set boundaries, and protect your own well‑being — without abandoning your values or your child.
Research shows families using CRAFT are 2-3 times more likely to see their loved one enter treatment and stick with it — while also experiencing less anxiety, depression, and burnout themselves.
What You’ll Learn
The 7-step framework for helping without enabling
The #1 mistake loving parents make that keeps addiction stuck
The 2 most important relationship skills
How to respond without lectures, threats, or arguments
How to set loving limits that actually work
Why your behavior still matters — even if your child says it doesn’t
Why using this approach are significantly more likely to motivate treatment engagement
By the end of this 60-90 minute LIVE Webinar, you will:
- Understand what actually helps (and what doesn’t)
- Have words and scripts you can lean on in hard moments
- Know your next small step — even if your child isn’t ready for treatment
All grounded in Community Reinforcement and Family Training (CRAFT) — developed by Robert J. Meyers, PhD.
Why This Approach Is Different
Unlike confrontation or detachment-only models, CRAFT teaches you how to:
- Reduce chaos and conflict
- Improve communication
- Reinforce healthy behaviors
- Stop unintentionally reinforcing substance use
No ultimatums.
No cutoffs.
No waiting for rock bottom.
