About PARENTS EMPOWERING PARENTS (PEP) SOCIETY
Parents Empowering Parents was founded as a result of an increasing need for support and direction for families dealing with the effects of substance abuse of a loved one.
The group continues to grow as word spreads throughout North America about P.E.P. On any given night, in each chapter meeting, there are 20-30 or more family members in attendance seeking help and hope. They leave each meeting a bit stronger, a bit more knowledgeable, and certainly more empowered, by gathering with others sharing their struggles and their successes. Our support programs focus on substance abuse, behavioural abuse and addiction in youth/adult children.. This is a family illness and it will take a healthy family to support and battle it.
As of November 2020, PEP has added a permanent virtual group to remove barriers of location and to serve across Alberta or even Nation wide. Another resource added is a toll free number for our professionally managed support line 1.877.991.2737
Our preventative efforts reach from pre-teens to grandparents, recognizing that the impact of substance abuse is on all ages and all family members. Addiction does not discriminate. It is not a respecter of ethnicity, social status, age or economic state.
Through advocacy, support, and our commitment to education, PEP has become a highly respected resource in Canada.
We invite you to join our mission.
