Sep 10, 2022

There are many different resources available for families who are working to support a family member through the process of addiction recovery. At Renaissance Ranch, we provide free educational classes for family members to help build your relationship and strengthen your family unit through the lifelong recovery process.

What Educational Classes Are Offered?

Our facility offers many different educational classes for families to gain a better understanding of the process of addiction, learn how to help with it, and decide how to move forward from the obstacles addiction can present. These weekly online classes are free and accessible to anyone. They provide healthy resources for you and your loved ones to use during recovery as well as continuing treatment resources for when the member going through treatment achieves alumni status.

Parent Groups

These educational classes are catered to the parents of an individual in the process of recovery. This is a great resource to learn how to best support your child, build a healthy relationship, and keep yourself healthy throughout the process. Addiction can affect the whole family unit. Knowing how to support your child through the recovery process can help establish a safe environment for everyone.

Spouses and Couples

These groups are great to attend when working to improve your relationship with your spouse or significant other through the hardships of addiction. Learn about how you can support each other as a team and how your relationship can play a role in recovery success.

Women’s Only Group

As we are an all-male facility, this group is specifically catered to the women who are involved in the lives of our clients and are struggling to adjust to the idea of addiction recovery for their loved ones. This educational class focuses on the women’s perspective and how to help them work through the recovery process.

Blended Family Perspectives

By blending individual perspectives of the person struggling with addiction and the perspectives of family members involved, we can help you establish a balance in mindsets. Blending both viewpoints can help rebuild your family relationship and enable you to understand each other on a deeper level.

In addition to our weekly classes, we also have free access to our recorded webinars. If you miss a meeting or wish to reflect on some of the learned information, you can access our webinars for additional education. We have various classes that are specifically designed to meet your individual needs. Check out our resources and feel free to join the educational class that you feel is most suitable for you.

Benefits of Educational Classes

There are many different benefits involved in our educational classes. The benefits you receive may be different from others, as each individual may take away different pieces of information to help them get through these times. The major benefit of these classes is having a free resource available to you at any time. If you are having a hard day and need some extra support, our webinars are a few clicks away. 

Our weekly meetings are great to help follow up with your progression and receive feedback, even after overcoming the treatment stage. There are consistent obstacles to work through during the lifelong recovery process. Always having a place to go to get the support you need can be greatly beneficial for our clients and their family members.

How Do These Classes Help Repair Relationships?

Our main goal in providing these educational classes is to help establish a sense of hope moving forward. Through the obstacles of addiction, it can feel easy to give up and assume nothing will ever get better. We are here to help remind you that there is hope. By having faith in the process and believing everything will come together in the end, the family unit can strengthen as a whole.

These educational classes can help repair relationships by getting family members involved in the recovery process. Family involvement is a key factor in the potential success of the recovering individual. Many of the actions of an individual struggling with addiction will affect their social circle and family unit, often destroying the relationships. By getting involved in the recovery process and supporting each other through the difficult changes that are occurring, you can help reestablish a sense of trust and rebuild your relationship.

With each member of the family working to build effective skills in communication, emotional regulation, and decision-making, the relationships between family members should continue to improve. Implementing practices that are essential to maintaining a healthy relationship takes effort from each person. Using these resources can help you make the necessary adjustments within your life to help support a loved one in recovery and repair the relationship moving forward.

As many aspects of society are shifting to an online perspective, we a proud to offer online weekly Zoom meetings as well as online webinars. These educational resources can provide many benefits to our families and individuals going through the obstacles of recovery. This can be a great resource to help improve basic communication skills, emotional regulation skills, and overall skills to help you repair your relationships. With the individualized educational classes we offer, you can find one that is best suited for your needs. Using these resources is a great way to stay involved with the recovery process for a loved one. Learn how to help efficiently support your loved one’s recovery without negatively impacting your relationship.
