Description
Summary:The pastor's chief ally against alcoholism is the family of the person whose use of alcohol has brought trouble into his life. A program of family counseling in use by the National Council on Alcoholism in Kansas City is readily adaptable to the pastor's ministry. It consists of seven group meetings composed mainly of spouses and teenage children of problem drinkers. Follow-up studies show that as a strategy of prevention, this family program is an answer to much of the frustration and confusion in the treatment of alcoholism.
