Although residential beds for clients children is not as common as other specialized types of drug or alcohol rehab 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 centers provided 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 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. Many parents (mothers in specific) are afraid to admit that they need help for their substance abuse issuesbecause they fear that their children will be taken from them. These programs help to alleviate this fear while providing the care that both parent and child so desperately need.
