[Video] Facilitator Spotlight – Sandy Dickson

Written by Admin | 21 Dec 2021

Supporting a family member with an addiction can be challenging. Sandy Dickson knows these struggles all too well. Sandy found the SMART Family & Friends program comforting and resourceful in helping her cope with her family’s addiction. She became a facilitator several years ago and now has a group of long-time participants that share their experiences and help one another. This is something that Sandy values very much.
