dc.description.abstractThe research question that guides this thesis is: are the addiction services in Regina and area meeting the needs of parents with addictions and their families in Regina and area? The goal was to research the treatment services available to parents with substance abuse problems, and to determine whether the interviewed service providers assess these services as meeting the needs of those parents and their families. This study used a qualitative, multiple case study method to interview five service providers who work in addiction service agencies in Regina, Saskatchewan. The service providers were all front-line staff at various addiction service agencies in Regina, Saskatchewan. Overall, these service providers expressed insufficient resources for parents struggling with substance abuse in Regina and area. Participants discussed barriers to successful recovery for parents with addictions, characteristics that make a program more successful for parents with addictions, gaps in services in the community, and strengths in services in the community. Regarding the overall expression of insufficient resources in the community, the participants identified lack of family treatment programs, lack of cooperation between agencies, and lack of funding for addictions services for parents in Regina and area as the main problem areas.en_US
