Although residential beds for clients children is not as common as other specialized types of drug or alcohol treatment facilities, they are possible to find 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 advantage to both the mother and child who are able to attend programs that offer residential beds for clients children. The parent is able to receive the rehabilitation they need while remaining close with their children through the challenging process of addiction recovery. Most parents (mothers in particular) are afraid to admit that they need help for their addiction issuesfor fear that their children will be taken away. These programs help to alleviate this fear while providing the care that both parent and child so desperately need.
