Celebrating Families! is an evidence-based, cognitive, behavioral, support group model designed for families when one or both parents have a serious problem with alcohol or other drugs. It is an intergenerational, family skills building curriculum that supports and maintains recovery, improving the health and well-being of children and family members, and increasing family reunification.
The curriculum engages family members, from three years old to adult, and fosters the development of healthy and addiction-free individuals and families by increasing resiliency factors and decreasing risk factors.
Every session addresses addiction recovery concepts with healthy family-living skills, specifically targeting children of alcoholics/addicts and parents in early recovery.
This highly interactive, fully scripted curriculum was originally developed by Rosemary Tisch and Linda Sibley for families involved with Santa Clara County, CA Family Treatment Drug Court.
It has now been successfully replicated in multiple sites throughout California as well as Idaho, Connecticut, Indiana, Illinois, Kentucky, Georgia and Maryland.
