What is Recovery?
Recovery is a process of change through which individuals improve their health and wellness, live self-directed lives, and strive to reach their full potential.
Access to evidence-based substance use disorder treatment and recovery support services are important building blocks to recovery.
SAMHSA’s Working Definition
Recovery is not treatment!

Four Major Dimensions
Maintaining a stable and safe place to live
HomeHealth
Overcoming or managing one’s disease(s) or symptoms and making informed, healthy choices that support physical and emotional well-being
Purpose
Conducting meaningful daily activities, such as a job, school or volunteerism, and having the independence of income, and resources to participate in society
Community
Having relationships and social networks that provide support, friendship, love, and hope

Recovery Occurs in the Context of Relationships
• SUD is a brain disease that affects the family
• Adults (who have children) primarily identify themselves as parents
• The parenting role and parent-child relationship cannot be separated from treatment
• Adult recovery should have a parent-child component including prevention for the child
Services that strengthen families and support parent-
child relationshipsHELP KEEP CHILDREN

Threaten parent’s ability to achieve and sustain recovery; increases risk of relapse
Threatens parent’s ability to establish a healthy relationship with their children
Additional exposure to trauma for child/family
The parent will continue to struggle with unresolved guilt

A Chronic, Relapsing Brain Disease
Brain imaging studies show physical changes in areas of the brain that are critical to:
• Judgment
• Decision making
• Learning and memory
• Behavior control
These changes alter the way the brain works and help explain the compulsion and continued use despite negative consequences.

These images of the dopamine transporter show the brain’s remarkable potential to recover, at least
partially, after a long abstinence from drugs - in this case, methamphetamine.9

Medication Assisted TreatmentAs part of a comprehensive treatment program, MAT has been shown to:
• Increase retention in treatment
• Decrease illicit opioid use • Decrease criminal activities, re-arrest and re-
incarceration
• Decrease drug-related HIV risk behavior• Decrease pregnancy related complications
• Reduce maternal craving and fetal exposure to illicit drugs
(Fullerton et al., 2014; The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, 2012; Dolan et al., 2005; Gordon et al., 2008; Havnes et al., 2012; Kinlock et al., 2008)

Mothers who participated in the Celebrating Families! Program and received integrated case management showed significant improvements in recovery,
including reduced mental health symptoms, reduction in risky behaviors, and longer program retention (Zweben et al., 2015).
Family-Centered Substance Use Disorder Treatment
Retention and completion of comprehensive substance use treatment have been found to be the strongest
predictors of reunification with children for parents with substance use disorders (Green, Rockhill, & Furrer, 2007; Marsh,
Smith, & Bruni, 2010).
Women who participated in programs that included a “high” level of family and children’s services were twice as likely to reunify with their children as those who participated in programs with a “low”
level of these services (Grella, Hser & Yang, 2006).

• Collective knowledge in the community is to “cut them off, kick them out, or stop talking to them”

• Children and youth who have regular, frequent contact with their families are more likely to reunify and less likely to reenter foster care after reunification (Mallon, 2011)
• Visits provide an important opportunity to gather information about a parent’s capacity to appropriately address and provide for their child’s needs, as well as the family’s overall readiness for reunification
• Parent-Child Contact (Visitation): Research shows frequent visitation increases the likelihood of reunification, reduces time in out-of-home care (Hess, 2003), and promotes healthy attachment and reduces negative effects of separation (Dougherty, 2004)
Impact of Parenting Time on Reunification Outcomes

Elements of Successful Parenting Time Plans
Parenting time should occur:
• Frequently• For an appropriate period of time• In a comfortable and safe setting• With therapeutic supervision
when appropriate
![Page 56: Rethinking Family Recovery: Supporting Families Towards ... · Family Recovery (PFR) initiative to shift to a family-centered approach 3.

Children Need to Spend Time with Their Parents
• Involve parents in the child’s appointments with doctors and therapists
• Expect foster parents to participate in visits
• Help parents plan visits ahead of time
• Enlist natural community settings as visitation locations (e.g. family resource centers)
• It is an opportunity to gather information about parent and child service needs
![Page 57: Rethinking Family Recovery: Supporting Families Towards ... · Family Recovery (PFR) initiative to shift to a family-centered approach 3. Explore evidence-based and promising practices](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052613/5f142c2302b0dd311025f3d4/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)
• Think of a pleasant experience (a romantic evening, a relaxing vacation, playing w/ a child). Pleasure is caused by dopamine, a major brain chemical, that is secreted into the amygdala region of the brain causing that pleasure part of the brain to fire. Addictive drugs do the same, only more intense.
• When drug use is frequent and causes a surge of dopamine on a regular basis, the brain realizes the dopamine is being provided artificially, and it essentially loses its natural ability for pleasure (at least for a period of time).
Effects of Drug Use on Dopamine Production
![Page 58: Rethinking Family Recovery: Supporting Families Towards ... · Family Recovery (PFR) initiative to shift to a family-centered approach 3.

Effects of Drug Use on Dopamine Production
• Think about the implications for a child welfare parent who has just stopped using drugs and is trying to resume normal interactions with their child/ren.
• If you are tasked with observing this visitation, what conclusions might you draw?
• If cues are misread, how might this affect a parent’s ability to keep or obtain custody of their child/ren?
• How do we balance compassion, understanding and patience with a parent’s temporarily compromised brain condition while maintaining parent accountability and child safety?

Connecting Families to Evidence-Based Parenting Program
• Knowledge of parenting skills and basic understanding of child development has been identified as a key protective factor against abuse and neglect (Geeraert, 2004; Lundahl, 2006; & Macleod and Nelson, 2000)
• The underlying theory of parent training is that
(a) parenting skills can improve with training,
(b) child outcomes can be improved, and
(c) the risk of child abuse and neglect can be reduced

Considerations for Selecting a Parenting Program • Have you conducted a needs assessment? What do the
families need? How will it help achieved desired outcomes?
• Have realistic expectations of their ability to participate - especially in early recovery?
• Does it have a parent-child component?
• Is it evidence-based for this population?
• Do you have the staffing and logistical support for successful implementation?

Practice Innovation: Reunification Group
• Participation begins during unsupervised/overnight visitations through 3 months post-reunification
• Staffed by an outside treatment provider and recovery support specialist (or other mentor role)
• Focus on supporting parents through reunification process
• Group process provides guidance and encouragement; opportunity to express concerns about parenting without repercussion

• Assuming sobriety = safety & safety = sobriety
• Moving through phasing based solely on sobriety days
• Tying parenting time expansion and supervision level to drug testing results
• Seeing use as failure and supporting this narrative
Sobriety and Drug Testing
Monitoring Checkboxes Supporting Behavior Change
• Always asking- how does this impact parenting ability
• Looking at behavior around use and sobriety
• Remembering what early recovery looks like
• Considering lapse vs. relapse and examining and discussing behavior before and after use
• Celebrating small wins

What Questions Can Drug Testing Answer? … & What Can it Not?
• Whether an individual has used a tested substance within a detectable time frame
• A drug test alone cannot determine the existence or absence of a substance use disorder
• The severity of an individual’s substance use disorder
• Whether a child is safe
• The parenting capacity and skills of the caregiver

Little Voices- Big ImpactSafety Planning with Children
• Encourage and support conversations between parents and children about substance use disorder, treatment, recovery, and relapse
• Provide children with developmentally appropriate answers/explanations
• Empower children to help set rules for their “Safety House” and tell parents who they do and don’t want around
• Help children identify who is safe to call if they are worried about mom and dad
• Mom and dad give permission to kids to “tell on them” if they don’t feel safe
• PRACTICE!!
