Becoming a quality parent doesn't happen by accident or coincidence - it needs conscious awareness and intentional effort. Working a programme of recovery is among the greatest gifts a parent can give his or her child. It is, also, a frequently underappreciated and underutilised asset in terms of how recovering people can approach parenting. When practised, the principles of recovery not only improve the well-being and functioning of a person in recovery, but can, also, facilitate healthy, quality parenting in ways that better meet the needs of children and their parents. ROOTS AND WINGS is designed to provide the practical guidance that will help people develop the awareness and skills they need to become the parents they want to be - the parents their children need them to be or even the parents they wished they themselves had.
