Home for the Helidays

In just over 2 weeks, student from alcohol & other drug dependent families will head home for T-giving and Christmas breaks. It is that time of the year again…time to share a reminder of The Network’s brochure, Home for the Helidays. This brochure presents an overview of what students face during this time of the year when preparing to return to an alcohol or other drug dependent family. There are several suggestions proffered regarding how to help students prepare and cope with what can be an extremely trying experience.

Please consider referring students to the brochure online or printing copies for those students you know may appreciate such…if not all students you know who can “pass it on” to quote an old AA slogan. And please feel free to pass this along to others who may be able to share this information with students if not be able to use it themselves.

The brochure can be found in PDF format on The Network addressing collegiate alcohol and other drug issues web page and is based on an essay I wrote some years ago with the same title.
