New Here

I'm new here. Still finding my way around, but it looks like a good place for support. I'm seeking support as the partner of a recovering alcoholic/addict. We have two children together, and the addiction split our family up for about 3 years. He went to rehab. We are back together, about 2 years now, however there are still slips/relapses/etc. We are trying to navigate this disease and it's hard. But I don't want to give up on him and I know he's trying.

Did rehab tell him to go to AA/NA ? Is he going ? Does he have a sponsor ? A Home Group ?

All the best.
