Are You Struggling to Help a Loved One With Addiction?

Are you…

  • Feeling powerless to help someone you love?
  • Is addiction creating chaos, fear, or constant conflict in your family?
  • Are you being told to wait until things get worse — until “rock bottom”?
  • Searching for addiction help for families, but don’t know where to start?
  • Thinking, “My kid is using drugs, and I’m losing control?
  • Trying to figure out how to help an addicted child without pushing them away?

Special Event:

RSVP: Nehemiah’s Celebration of Life

Family addiction support in King County helping hands reach through mud during a recovery challenge.

Waiting doesn’t work.
Love alone isn’t enough.
Right action — grounded in a solid strategy — does.

When addiction takes hold, it doesn’t just affect one person — it destabilizes the entire family. And doing nothing only allows it to grow.

Your loved one isn’t beyond reach.
There are things families can do — and real change starts here.

Real Stories From Families We’ve Helped

“In April 2024, my son reached out and was ready to leave his situation. I called Angie on the spot and got immediate help. When they say, ‘We got you!’ they absolutely mean it! It’s been a long journey and we are still moving forward. He has been clean and has reconnected with our family including his 5-year old nephew and 95-year old grandma.”

“One change we have seen in our family is that we are completely whole again. There is genuine, love, laughter, and a closeness like no other. Our relationships are healed and healthy. Our son is going on four years sober and just celebrated his 25th birthday. We are so thankful for the support of Battlefield and are forever grateful. Our advice to other families would be: Don’t wait! Don’t miss another opportunity to help your loved one. There are always steps to take and lessons to learn even if your loved one is not ready.”

“Addiction is the most isolating and lonely existence for not only the addict but also their family. Getting involved with Battlefield is joining a community of support and getting guidance and advice from strong and experienced leaders. They don’t give up and treat your loved one as their own while meeting your family where you are.”

“I found Battlefield Addiction when I was desperately looking for something. Anything, anyone who could help save my beautiful son. He was lost. And so was I. Since working with Battlefield, the tension and suspicion we both held, no longer exists. We are able to speak open about concerns that arise. The road is never straight. That’s OK. Battlefield has taught us how to mend relationships. They have given us skills for communicating and building a better family. Best of all, Battlefield Addiction always has our back. Always.”

“Battlefield Addiction was the lifeline our family so desperately needed. Today, our family is healthier and stronger than it has ever been… We truly would not be where we are today as a family without Battlefield Addiction’s expertise, guidance, and support.”

“Battlefield Addiction educated us on addiction, coached us on how to best help our son during active addiction and recovery and, most importantly, helped our family reconnect and repair our relationships.”

“Battlefield has given me tools, individual support and guidance on how to offer help without enabling bad behavior. I also learned to be more calm during a relapse rather than irrational, angry and desperate. Battlefield is the support you need to feel empowered to make a change. No matter if your loved one is in recovery or out on the streets you will gain invaluable knowledge and resources from all that Battlefield has to offer. Most of all you will become a part of a community that cares about you and wants to hear your story.”

“They seemed to know our story better than we knew it. They had been down this road before and nothing we said was a surprise. Having someone who understood what we were dealing with and who was able to guide us out of the mess, made all the difference in the world.”

“I am one of many moms that have Battlefield Addiction to thank for saving my boy’s life. I will never forget the way everyone at Battlefield stood by our family and my son from the deepest part of his addiction, through relapse and into recovery.”
