Rehabilitation in the community refers to the cooperation of all parties directly or indirectly involved with drug users. The family is a resource of support for drug users in recovery and plays an important role as a protector against relapse. However, the role of family in providing social support is often debated. Therefore, this study was conducted to assess the strength of family social support in assisting the government-run community based treatment programme (CBT). Data were collected using a family social support questionnaire from 177 family members of drug users in Terengganu who were selected using a purposive sampling method. The data were analysed using descriptive analysis (mean) and SPSS. The study found that three of the four forms of social support (spiritual, informational, and instrumental) were moderately provided, and emotional support was highly provided. In summary, family involvement in support for rehabilitation treatment programs in the community still needs to be improved for families to effectively support CBT.
