Are you looking to help someone dealing with an addiction? This Handbook combines two powerful approaches – SMART Recovery tools and the principles of the evidence-based Community Reinforcement and Family Training (CRAFT) approach – to help individuals affected by the addictive behavior of someone they care about. Studies show CRAFT is significantly more successful than Al-Anon or Johnson interventions in getting addicted individuals into treatment. Packed with tools, exercises, and practical strategies, this Handbook covers topics such as Change and Motivation, Positive Communication, Healthy Boundaries, Safety and Support, Coping with Lapses, Disabling the Enabling, Trust and Forgiveness – and more. Use it alone or in conjunction with attendance at SMART Family & Friends online or community meetings. One Family & Friends participant says “I came to SMART to get help dealing with my partner's addiction. What I got are tools that help me deal more effectively with almost every aspect of MY life.” Get effective help for addiction today with this Handbook.
