The Republican Center for Addiction Disorders provides services for the family members of individuals with addiction. Addiction often affects not only the person with the addiction but also their family members. Family members become involved in their loved one’s life and try to help them in various ways, not always knowing how.
Family members of individuals with addiction can seek consultations with RCAD social workers, psychologists, or CRAFT specialists.
Consultations with a social worker are provided free of charge and without prior registration. The social worker provides guidance on available treatment services, registration procedures, necessary documents, and further steps toward recovery.

CRAFT (Community Reinforcement and Family Training) is a globally recognized and evidence-based methodology and therapeutic treatment tool based on the principles of cognitive-behavioral therapy. It is designed to work with the family members of individuals with substance use or addiction disorders. The specialists aim to improve the quality of life for family members, enhance their behavior and communication skills with the person with harmful substance use, and motivate the individual to seek help through their family members, ultimately reducing substance use.
This service is subject to a fee, and the consultation fees are determined individually by each specialist.
