Design an 8-week psychoeducation group for families impacted by substance use. This can be in a variety of settings but must include family members.

You will provide an outline of the group sessions (6-8) via word document or slide deck, and each session must include but not limited to:

The topic
The goal/object
The activity
Education process – discussion questions, videos clips, worksheets, your own presentation
Homework/resources for the family members
Include the links, pdfs, conversation questions, etc. With the information provided, the group facilitator should be able to pick up your guide and implement the session.

Think of this like making a lesson plan. It is an outline of what you will be educating the family on in the group. Maybe start by picking out group topics/themes. Use your reading materials to help you determine what themes families experience.
