The Family Room — Free Online Support Group

Time zones & format

Anchor time is 10:00 AM Central Time (CT): 8:00 AM Pacific, 9:00 AM Mountain, 11:00 AM Eastern. Live virtual only. If this slot conflicts with work, try Fix Your Family on Monday evenings or Morning Meditation on weekdays.

What to expect

• Open-format free online support—less curriculum, more shared experience and facilitator guidance.
• Peer advocates and facilitators who understand family recovery journeys.
• A safer place to ask questions you may not ask friends or coworkers.
• No requirement that your loved one be in treatment or attending with you.
• Confidentiality agreement for the group at the start of each meeting.
