The Family Reunification Workbook
What Has to Be True Before the Family Is Together Again
Reunion is not the end of the work. It is the beginning of a different kind.
For the family considering reunification after estrangement — from addiction, incarceration, conflict, or other circumstances — who wants to approach reconnection with honesty rather than hope alone.
The Name It First Experience
Reunification is not an event — it is an agreement. What changed? What does each person need to feel safe? What was said or done that needs acknowledgment? Without those questions answered, reunification reproduces the conditions that made separation necessary. The Reunification Agreement names what each person needs, what each person offers, and the explicit terms before proximity is restored.
You can opt into 30-, 60-, and 90-day check-ins from your account. We recommend you do — the point is to see what changed.
Sample questions
- What does reunification mean to you — what does it look like day to day when it's working?
- What has changed in you that you want your family to see and trust?
- What will you do differently if things get hard — and what makes this time different from before?
- Describe the explicit agreement you want before proximity is restored — the specific conditions, the specific commitments.
