Dear Families,

We warmly welcome you our Family Program! This informational packet will hopefully answer many of the questions you may have about the family program and what your next few days will look like. Our goal is to help you through this difficult journey and to help you understand not only yourself but also the process of recovery and what your loved one will need going forward.

Over the next few days, we will be providing you with great and informative information; along with a supportive environment in which you will be able to openly discuss the impact the disease of addiction has had upon you and your family. We will support you through the process and will help you move past barriers and the emotional baggage that has developed because of the addiction.

If there is anything you need throughout the next few days, please don’t hesitate to ask any of the staff members here at Hotel California. We are honored to spend this time with you.

Sincerely,

From the Hotel California Family
