Although residential beds for clients children is not as common as other specialized types of addiction treatment 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 programs supplied 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 provide residential beds for clients children. The parent is able to receive the rehabilitation they need while remaining involved 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 for their substance abuse problemsfor fear that their children will be taken from them. These programs help to reduce this fear while providing the care and support that both mother and child so desperately need.
