Family Addiction Peer Support Groups

Weekly groups where family members share experiences and support each other in coping with the impact of addiction.

FASN Peer Family Support Groups

FASN offers weekly peer-led support groups for family members affected by a loved one’s substance use. These groups provide a safe, non-judgmental space where participants can share their experiences, gain understanding, and receive emotional support from others who truly understand. Through connection and shared insight, family members learn healthy coping strategies, reduce feelings of isolation, and build resilience. Attending a FASN peer support group can be a powerful step toward healing, empowerment, and renewed hope.

Where to Find Support

FASN peer support groups take place weekly in Dundalk, Drogheda, Cavan, Navan, and Monaghan, offering local support to families impacted by addiction. If you’re unsure where to start, reaching out is the first step. A Family Support Specialist will listen to you without judgment and in complete confidence, answer your questions, and guide you through possible next steps – including how to join a support group near you.
