Family Support

We know that when an individual suffers from addiction, the whole family suffers.

First Contact Family Support Group

The best chance for an addicted individual to grow in recovery often means the family must get better as well.  First Contact offers family support for relatives and loved ones of those suffering with substance abuse and addiction.  Our goal is to help everyone on their own road to recovery. All programs and services are offered at no cost to the participants.  For more information on the FIRST CONTACT Family Support Group contact:

First Contact Family Support Group Meeting- Help for Families & Loved Ones

First Contact Family Support Group meets 2x a week:

Who: Family members and friends of addicted individuals
When: Tuesdays, from 6:30 – 8:00 p.m. (Mud Creek Baptist)
Where: Mud Creek Baptist Church, 403 Rutledge Dr., Hendersonville, NC 28739.  Click here for directions.

When:  Thursdays, from 6:30 – 8:00 p.m.

Families of addicted individuals often suffer in silence. But, it doesn’t need to be this way. Our weekly group meeting offers a safe place to gain valuable information and guidance for dealing with crisis situations, and compassionate on-going support needed to make tough choices often necessary for healing. Group members share similar experiences on how drug addiction has affected their own lives and cope with past and ongoing situations involving substance abuse related drama.  This shared experience enables group members to reach out to comfort and encourage each other on the road to recovery.

Mother’s Grief Support Group

Who: Mothers who have lost a child to addiction
When:  1st & 3rd Tuesdays of every month, from 6:30 – 8:00 p.m.
Where: Mud Creek Baptist Church, 403 Rutledge Dr., Hendersonville, NC 28739.  Click here for directions.

This open share group is for mothers that are grieving the loss of their child due to addiction.  Come join with other moms that share your journey and find support, encouragement, and understanding.

Additional Help for Families

FIRST CONTACT staff is available to guide family members through the maze of treatment and recovery options. We have access to a collection of material, books, meeting schedules and brochures to share with loved ones.

Hendersonville, NC Free Drug & Alcohol Addiction Assistance

First Contact Addiction Ministries provides free support services for addiction & recovery in Hendersonville NC, Henderson County, and Western North Carolina.

Substance abuse & addiction are serious issues, and they are increasing to epidemic proportions within our small, WNC communities. As the crisis grows, local government, hospitals & jails are ill-equipped to meet increased demands for crisis management & rehabilitation.

Every morning, thousands of people in Henderson County wake up to another day controlled by drug and alcohol addiction. For every one of them, an average of five other loved ones are suffering alongside, often in silence.

If you or a loved one are suffering with substance abuse disorders, we can help. We understand how difficult and confusing it can be to navigate the addiction and recovery process. That’s why we offer free education and guidance to assist you.

Our caring community of support is here for you. We provide encouragement and assistance for individuals & families suffering with the trauma associated with substance abuse disorders and addiction.
