Family Recovery Workbook

Heal Together - One Movie at a Time...


The Family Recovery Workbook is a bold, breakthrough approach to recovery support—giving individuals and families a powerful new way to process the pain, confusion, and hope that come with loving someone in recovery.

Using carefully selected Hollywood films and expertly crafted discussion guides that are both accessible and engaging, this cinema-based tool helps us better understand addiction, strengthen communication, and set healthy, compassionate boundaries.

Rooted in empathy, insight, and evidence-based strategies, it’s a dynamic new form of support: cinematic, therapeutic, and profoundly human.

Quotes
“Addiction is a disease of isolation, and recovery thrives in connection. Families and friends provide the emotional scaffolding that makes healing possible—not through control, but through compassion and understanding.”
Nora D. Volkow, M.D. Director, National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA)
“Recovery is a team sport. The most successful outcomes occur when families educate themselves, set healthy boundaries, and celebrate small victories together.”
William L. White Author, Slaying the Dragon: The History of Addiction Treatment and Recovery in America
“Social bonds rewire the brain’s reward system away from addiction. Family involvement isn’t just helpful—it’s neurobiologically transformative.”
Dr. George Koob Director, NIH National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism
“When families sit down together to watch these films, something shifts. We’ve witnessed moments of raw honesty, renewed empathy, and support that finally feels real. A lightbulb goes off; walls come down, truths are spoken, and healing begins—reconciliation where there was once silence, forgiveness for things once thought unforgivable.”
Jan Brown Founding Executive Director, SpiritWorks Foundation
