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 reported that 515 (14%) of residential substance abuse treatment programs offered beds for both mothers and their children. There is a substantial advantage to both the mother and child who are able to enroll in recovery programs that provide residential beds for clients children. The mother is able to receive the drug addiction treatment they need while remaining close with their children through the challenging process of substance abuse recovery. A lot of parents (mothers in particular) are afraid to admit that they need help with their addiction problemsbecause they fear that their children will be taken from them. These programs help to alleviate this fear while supplying the proper care that both parent and child so desperately need.
