PER CURIAM.
J.J., the father, appeals the trial court’s supplemental disposition and case plan approval order requiring J.J. to submit to substance abuse and psychological evaluations. We have appellate jurisdiction. See E.P.V. v. Dep’t of Children & Families, 278 So. 3d 749, 750 n.1 (Fla. 3d DCA 2019).
Concluding the trial court did not abuse its discretion, we affirm. See M.P. v. Dep’t of Children & Families, 159 So. 3d 341, 344 (Fla. 4th DCA 2015) (concluding that good cause for directing a parent to undergo a substance abuse evaluation is shown where there is record evidence that the parent had a history of drug use); J.P. v. Dep’t of Children & Families, 855 So. 2d 175, 176 (Fla. 5th DCA 2003) (“The instant record demonstrates that the trial court acted within its legal authority in ordering the father to submit to a psychological evaluation as an element of his case plan since the record indicated that the father had participated in incidents of domestic violence and possessed a criminal history which included incidents of violence.”).
