Relationships in Recovery

Relationships--whether they are romantic, platonic, or familial--are challenging, because they require things like vulnerability, communication, and compromise. But when a person finds recovery, the challenges of some relationships can become even greater. How do people in recovery navigate relationships? How do they juggle being present in a relationship while, at the same time, making their recovery a priority? And what special issues arise when you have a family? Find out at the February Macomb FAN Forum as we hear Christine Reeves (LMSW, CAADC, CCS-DP), the Clinical Program Manager for Addiction Services at Henry Ford Maplegrove Center, speak on the topic. We will also listen to individuals in recovery, as they share how they have coped with and repaired relationships in the midst of taking care of their own needs and maintaining their sobriety.
