Assignment 1: LASA 2:  Treating the Substance Abuser and his Family Presentation 

Harvey is married and has 2 teenage  children. Harvey has been heavily   drinking on a regular basis for the past 10 years.  In the past his wife  often covered for him  with his job, and usually made excuses for him  with his children and his  friends. Harvey has not attended his  son’s  baseball games this year, and he missed his daughter’s performance in  the  school play due to having been passed out from drinking. At this  time, he is at risk for losing his  job due to excessive absences, and  he was recently arrested for a DUI. Harvey  has realized that his  drinking is adversely affecting all aspects of his life  and he is ready  to quit.
