Answer by D.D
lahacienda.org (com?) is suppose to be a top notch place according to drphil.com
anyway, there are usually tons of info in each area, look under mental health or counseling or drug addiction in the yellow pages and start calling around to find out , ask questions, attend AA meetings, naracanon meetings, ask a therapist of your own………join a support group in town or online……or both dailystrength.org has some groups but there are probably better ones
the place where they were attending therapy or incarceration should also have suggestions
Find a drug counselor/therapist and talk to them
talk to a child psychologist
best wishes
