While residential beds for clients children is not as prevalent as other specialized types of drug or alcohol rehabilitation facilities, they do, in fact, exist if you are in need. Back in 2007, the National Survey of Substance Abuse Treatment Services reported that 515 (14%) of residential substance abuse treatment facilities provided beds for both mothers and their children. There is a substantial advantage to both the mother and child who are able to attend recovery programs that offer residential beds for clients children. The parent is able to receive the addiction treatment they need while remaining involved with their children through the difficult process of addiction recovery. Most parents (mothers in particular) do not want to admit that they need help for their substance abuse issuesfor fear that their children will be taken from them. These programs help to reduce this fear while providing the proper care that both parent and child so desperately need.
