    This program is designed for parents and caregivers who are concerned about their chid’ls use of alcohol and other drugs or gambling. Through the Parents Intervention Program, participants will be provided with:

    • Information about our programs and how your child may benefit
    • Information about the signs of harmful alcohol and drug involvement, and problem gambling
    • Suggestions for dealing with alcohol and drug-related behaviour and its effects on the family
    • An introduction to a community support group
    Parents are not responsible for their child’s alcohol and drug use or gambling problems, but they are one of the most important influences in their child’s life. The guidelines offered to parents through this program will assist them in supporting their child, while helping to establish a more manageable living environment.
