Anyone ever staged an intervention?

Long back story but I am considering doing so for the daughter of a dear friend that we are almost positive is on meth.
Any advice?

La Hacienda rehabilitation center, and there was a PDF file on Interventions and training for one.

I suspect you and the others need to go through it, possibly do a mock intervention, before doing the real deal. It might maximize effectiveness.
