Parenting in recovery program: participant responses and case examples.

چکیده
Approximately 80% of children served by child welfare agencies have parents who abuse or are dependent on alcohol or illicit drugs. Despite the devastating effects on children from living in substance abusing families, child protective service practitioners have limited options available to assist these families.

This manuscript describes this program and perceptions of participants concerning its effectiveness.
