It also gives families the tools they need to support their loved one’s healing—while not losing sight of their own.
Grounded in empathy, insight, and evidence-based practices, this is a new kind of support: cinematic, therapeutic, and deeply human.
Perfect for family days at treatment centers, community recovery events, or use by therapists and clinicians in private practice.
A complete perpetual-use License for group meetings starts as low as $500.

Family Edition
“This program is truly a game-changer. When families sit down together to watch these films, something shifts. We’ve witnessed moments of raw honesty, renewed empathy, and support that finally feels real. A lightbulb goes off; walls come down, truths are spoken, and healing begins—reconciliation where there was once silence, forgiveness for things once thought unforgivable.”
Jan Brown

Recovery Movie Meetups are peer or facilitator-led gatherings where people in recovery—and those who support them—come together to watch powerful Hollywood films that spotlight the impact of family on healing.
These unique, evidence-based sessions - thoughtfully directed by our peer-reviewed Family Edition Workbook - create an engaging space for both individuals and their loved ones to reflect, connect, and grow.
Guided discussions after each film use thought-provoking questions to spark meaningful dialogue, self-discovery, and deeper understanding.
The result?
A shared experience that builds connection, reduces isolation, and strengthens recovery for everyone in the room.
