#SUD : substance use disorders are a global concern

#Stigma may prevent people with substance used disorders from seeking help

#It is often difficult to get parents/caregivers to know how to initiate discussions with their loved ones

#Often parent’s emotions interfere with the ability to show empathy and support their children living with SUD

#No one  intentionally develops dependency on alcohol, marijuana or any other substance/drug

#Its important to use non-labeling, non-stigmatizing words 

#Setting boundaries clarifies where you stand on drugs

#Substance use impacts family systems and often members find themselves trying to cope by functioning in different roles of either becoming:

-  Enabler, 

- Hero, 

- Scapegoat 

- Lost Child

- Mascot
