The Pennsylvania Department of Drug and Alcohol Programs (DDAP) is gathering input to help guide future Family Learning Series videos and related resources focused on youth substance use prevention and problem gambling. The deadline to respond to the respective surveys is Friday, July 31.

 

DDAP's current Family Learning Series provides online videos as a starting point for family members, loved ones, and friends supporting someone with a substance use disorder, including guidance on supporting children when a parent is affected. Family members can learn what to expect, explore treatment and support options, and find ways to be present and supportive throughout the recovery process. Each video includes related resources for additional information and support.
