We Are REAL

It can be difficult for parents to find guidance and comprehensive information, all in one place, as they navigate their child’s substance use disorder. Approximately 50% of teens and young adults have tried an illegal drug and make up the largest population of individuals affected by substance use disorders. The issues surrounding how to best deal with your child’s substance use creates uncertainty and anxiety for parents who are watching their children experiment with illegal substances and possibly go on to struggle with addiction.

The platform deals with topics including prevention, diagnosis, alignment, boundaries, treatment, insurance, outpatient and residential living, sober living, and criminal and estate issues.
