About this organization
About
FASFA United was created to arrange and facilitate the necessary support and resources to families of individuals battling addiction. We are here to help cope with and heal as well as provide tools to empower family members to understand their role as well as define healthy boundaries. When my husband Danny went to rehab, I begged for help from outside sources. I begged for anyone who would be willing to help not only Danny the addict, but for me, his wife. I obviously at some point enabled and was codependent on Danny. They had practically no help for us in the way I needed. I feel that treating the whole family, you need to treat the family, since it becomes a family disease, so we can be the best support for our loved ones. If we are planning on staying in the same home together, it’s more important for the addict to have their living environment healthy, and, well, they didn’t have what I was looking for. Because of this, we will be meeting with each client, and providing the necessary resources, to help them to the best of our ability, be a positive influence and give our support to them and their loved ones. These resources might be as simple as child care or a babysitter, or more depth in care with life coaches, sober coaches, mentors, counseling, food, help with emergency utility, as well as daily life essentials.
