Intervention is een Amerikaanse realityserie van de zender A&E. De serie ging in première op 6 maart 2005.
Intervention profileert mensen die het gevecht verliezen met hun verslavingen, en waarvan wiens vrienden en families een interventie houden als de enige overgebleven optie zien. Elke documentaire volgt de levens van deze verslaafden, waarbij ze een vastbesloten blik werpen op de impact van hun verslavingen op hun dagelijks leven, terwijl de verslaafden zich er niet van bewust zijn dat er een interventie gepland wordt. Elke uitzending eindigt met de vrienden, de familie en een professionele interventionist die de verslaafde aanspoort tot behandeling. Als de persoon voor behandeling zou kiezen, komt de verslaafde onmiddellijk in een algemeen erkende behandelingsfaciliteit.
