While residential beds for clients children is not as common as other specialized types of drug treatment centers, they do, in fact, exist if you are in need. Back in 2007, the National Survey of Substance Abuse Treatment Services documented that 515 (14%) of residential substance abuse treatment programs provided beds for both mothers and their children. There is a substantial benefit to both the mother and child who are able to enroll in 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 challenging process of addiction recovery. Many parents (mothers in particular) do not want to admit that they need help for their addiction problemsfor fear that their children will be taken away. These programs help to alleviate this fear while supplying the proper care that both parent and child so desperately need.
