While residential beds for clients children is not as prevalent as other specialized types of drug or alcohol treatment 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 offered beds for both mothers and their children. There is a great benefit to both the mother and child who are able to enroll in programs that offer residential beds for clients children. The mother is able to receive the addiction treatment they need while remaining involved with their children through the treatment process of substance abuse recovery. A lot of parents (mothers in particular) do not want to admit that they need help with their addiction issuesfor fear that their children will be taken away. These programs help to alleviate this fear while offering the proper care that both parent and child so desperately need.
