This chapter explores the challenges social workers face in attempting to reunify families in which there is parental drug abuse. The incidence of children in out-of-home care who have parents that abuse drugs is discussed, as well as the continued relevance of family reunification practice in serving these families. New service innovations that facilitate drug treatment are highlighted, and a three-stage model of family reunification is presented. 26 references.
