Although 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 supplied 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 parent is able to receive the drug addiction treatment they need while remaining involved with their children through the difficult process of substance abuse recovery. Most parents (mothers in particular) are afraid to admit that they need help for their substance abuse issuesbecause they fear that their children will be taken away. These programs help to reduce this fear while supplying the proper care that both mother and child so desperately need.
