Counselors can easily use any of the six video topics to enhance concepts covered in an existing treatment curriculum or can use the video topics alone to conduct dynamic discussion sessions on core recovery topics.

This 39-minute program focuses specifically on early recovery, teaching the viewers to prepare for the challenging high-risk situations they will inevitably encounter in their first weeks and months back in the community. Specifically, it covers these essential teaching points:

* Make a housing plan before leaving prison or rehab

* Arrange to live in a safe and sober housing situation

* Avoid living with any active drug or alcohol abusers

* Get rid of any drug supplies or paraphernalia you still have

* Prepare to handle the inevitable triggers and cravings

* Plan ahead to handle running into "get-high buddies" and dealers

* Put together a support system--and use it

Use Family Recovery Basics to begin a family program or complement an existing one. It is ideal for use in a variety of settings, including health care, addiction treatment, mental health treatment, correctional facilities, community groups, and educational settings.
