Family Matters at Casa Serena...At Casa Serena, we understand that families need support, too. Our Family Program is designed to educate families about alcoholism,substance abuse and addiction and guide them through their own healing process.

Family/Alumnae Support Group - Former residents and their family members, as well as current resident’s families are invited. Current residents do not attend this group. Focus is support and self-care for family members.

Family Night - Current family members and current residents only. This is a psycho-education/process group that educates and stimulates dialogue between family members and residents. It is strongly recommended that supportive family members attend regularly.

“I was hopeless when I entered Casa Serena.I was riddled with guilt and shame. I was

completely isolated from my family and financially destitute. I waited for the miracle and it happened. I didn’t want to leave after 90 days. I was terrified

that the gifts I had received as a resident would be lost. Gifts like hope, compassion, trust, sobriety, sponsorship and friendship. I signed on for another 9 months so that I could strengthen my foundation and continue my life as a clean and sober woman.

So far, so good!”
