While residential beds for clients children is not as common as other specialized types of drug or alcohol treatment programs, 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 great benefit to both the mother and child who are able to enroll in 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 treatment process of substance abuse recovery. Many 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.
