While residential beds for clients children is not as common as other specialized types of drug or alcohol treatment centers, 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 offered beds for both mothers and their children. There is a substantial benefit to both the mother and child who are able to enroll in programs that offer residential beds for clients children. The parent is able to receive the addiction treatment they need while remaining close with their children through the difficult process of addiction recovery. Most parents (mothers in particular) are afraid to admit that they need help for their addiction problemsfor fear that their children will be taken away. These programs help to reduce this fear while providing the care that both mother and child so desperately need.
