THE CHILDREN OF ALCOHOLICS FOUNDATION
Children of substance abusers need help making sense of addiction and why their family has been affected. They need assistance understanding their parent’s behavior, which may include abuse and neglect. They need support as they cope with broken promises, confusion, anger, loss and bereavement. And they need special help understanding their own special risk for drug and alcohol abuse.
In the face of these realities, our mantra remains the same: children of alcoholics and other substance abusers are at risk. But with help and support, they can be taught to cope with their parent’s problems, and break the intergenerational cycle of this disease.
