How to Welcome Them Home Without Enabling Them
from Rebuilding Life After Addiction Hosted by Shenandoah Valley Adult Teen Challenge, Justin Franich
Boundaries don’t have to feel like a trap. They can be a bridge back to trust, dignity, and peace when a loved one returns home from a recovery program. We get honest about how to welcome someone back without sliding into control, enabling, or constant conflict—and we offer a practical framework you can put on paper tonight. 🎙️ Host: Justin Franich | Executive Director, Shenandoah Valley Teen Challenge 🌐 Full episodes + resources: https://svtc.info/podcast 📖 Faith-based recovery guides: https://svtc.info 🙏 Support this ministry: https://svtc.info/donate 📞 Need help?
