Using Inter-Dependency to Overcome Co-Dependency: A Community Transition to Family Treatment Drug Court (Skills Seminar K)

Using Inter-Dependency to Overcome Co-Dependency:
A Community Transition to Family Treatment Drug Court
(Skills Seminar K)

This skills seminar introduces participants to an effective family drug court collaborative developed by the City of Alexandria, Virginia. Its focus is to provide responsive services from an ecological perspective that alters traditional interventions and promotes effective outcomes for all family members. As a collaboration that works and continues to evolve, the Alexandria Family Treatment Drug Court provides a replicable process blueprint, including: overcoming organizational limitations; facilitating philosophical changes in service delivery; sharing ethical information; community ownership and support; shared and creative funding; and effective, timely outcomes that promote the safety and well-being of children.
