The Johnson intervention, also known as the "Johnson Model" or "Invitational Model," is a widely accepted form of intervention for alcoholics and drug addicts. It involves a group of loved ones and close friends gathering together to confront the individual in a non-judgmental, compassionate manner with the goal of helping them realize the need for change. This confrontational approach aims to create a supportive, yet assertive environment that encourages the individual to enter treatment voluntarily. This intervention model was pioneered by Vernon Johnson in the 1960s and has become one of the most commonly used approaches to intervention.
