Partner CRAFT: Early Recovery
from Coming Up for Air — A Toolkit to Help with Your Loved One's Recovery from Addiction & Mental Illness · host Allies in Recovery
Kayla and Isabel discuss the challenges of early recovery. What are realistic expectations to have of our loved ones in this period? What can we do as a family member to support them and, importantly, to keep ourselves in check?
