Parent CRAFT is a self-paced online video course that teaches parents, caregivers, and others the skills and techniques needed to address adolescent or young adult substance abuse and encourage a young person who needs it to enter treatment. Parents and caregivers learn skills to address adolescent and transitional-age youth (TAY) substance abuse through highly engaging online video segments that include structured suggestions for practicing skills.
